sorry if this is off topic, but I currently have a ASUS P9X79 WS which has 7 GPU slots. Can anyone suggest a motherboard with more slots? I have many old GTX 680 cards, and would like to combine as many as I can in one machine.

I also found this motherboard X9DRX+-F http://www.supermicro.com/products/motherboard/Xeon/C600/X9DRX_-F.cfm , but I am not sure about running powered 8x to 16x adapters.

I don't want to use this just for mining, so the x1 adapters just wont cut it.

I also saw this Big Marshal board, but it looks like its no longer in production.

Thoughts?
