mistake about building rig... thanks for help.

Are u sure to be able to build a PC yourself?

yes i built myself pc but it is simple no need to care about thigs.

but about mining pc i will use 5 gpu and everything should be smooth. if i do something bad, gpus or mother board may get burned.

so i should buy things that will run smooth on my rig.

and sorry for my bad english.

As a riser cable you should use 1x to 16x PCIe extenders/risers... as I understand they should work for all slots on your MB. But if you have the possibility you should buy the extenders for your specific ports. In your case 3 pcs. of 16x to 16x and the rest 1x to 16x (2 pcs. in your case).

I'm also building one  Grin
Here are my specs:
Gigabyte Z87X-OC with Intel® PentiumTM G3220 and Kingston 8GB 1600MHz DDR3 Non-ECC CL9 DIMM (2x4) as a base.
As hashing units I am expecting 4 MSI AMD Radeon HD 7950, 3072MB, GDDR5, 384bit to be delivered as we speak.
All this will be powered by one Sirtec - High Power PLUS GOLD 1200W - arrives on Monday... I hope.

I actually opted for this MB because I have no way to easily procure riser cables... from China they will arrive somewhere from 9 all the way to 29 of Januarry  Undecided

Have phun  Wink

should i buy power included riser cables or not?

someone say if i use nonpower in risers may be cause of burned mb.
