MSI Z77A-GD65 Motherboard can hold many GPU and got lots of space in between if you are only going to use 3 GPUs.
Can you do a profitability calculation?
GPU mining is not profitable for BTC any more.
If your electricity price is about 15c/kWh, it is marginal for LTC etc script mining with 795/70. It is not profitable with 5xxx or 69xx cards.
If you want to use the heat to warm your house, that is another story.
MSI Z77A-GD55 is a good one.

You better use A88X with A10 for better.
Do you need a CPU with it?
I have a 990fx-ud5 w/a fx6100, and afew other pieces to go with it.

Hello,
I'm sure there is a lot of topics like this one. Most of them have expired links to the stores. I'd like to know what is current.
I'm building a rig that will run 3 cards: 5870, 6950 reference and 6950 XFX
I have old Antec tall ATX case.
Which motherboard I should pick so I wouldn't have to worry about running all 3 cards and make sure they all fit?
I've done a lot of research, can't seem to pick one.
Another option I have in mind: miniATX motherboard with 1xPCIe-x16 and 2xPCIe-x1 - it will span over 3 slots and I will be able to mount and use another 4 slots in the case for video cards (with powered extenders) - it turns out many motherboards have PCI slot at the end - not an option for me.
Mobo has to be AMD socket AM3 based.
Please advice.
