Your mobo looks like it could handle 4x gpus, but make damn sure you use powered risers not unpowered.

Also I would get an 875 or higher watt PSU to power two of them, imo.

Thank you.  Any idea the max cards I can put on the mainboard?

You'll barely have headroom when those two cards are 100% active. Always assume you'll have the cards AND the cpu in full load, and then have another 100-150W extra to spare

Hey guys I currently have this motherboard

http://www.asus.com/Motherboards/P8P67_DELUXE/

I have an r9 290 in it right now and I am about to add another in the next few days.  I am not sure how many this board will handle.  And are there any known issues with these Asus boards for mining?

 Also these are the specs on my power supply.  Can it handle 2 of these cards in a system booting from a usb?



  Thanks.
