So! My fiancé and I have decided to go with our first investment in building a pc mining rig.  We got two radeon hd 7970s coming our way.  He wants to expand the GPU to at some point take on 4. We realized the biostar motherboard we ordered online http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813138372. Has:

Expansion Slots
PCI Express 2.0 x16
2(x16.x4)
PCI Express x1
2
PCI Slots
2

So, should we

A) get another mobi to take on that kind of expansion, if yes, which Moho do you recommend? We don't want to spend too much on it.  or

B) is there another way to expand the gpus like with risers? I haven't built a computer for a decade, so im kinda behind on what's what in today's tech world.
