Hi, Im about to buy a new pc and I want to put 4 titans on it. But I dont know how I can fit them in the motherboard, I mean, theres a lot of mb with 4 pci express but as the titans fit 2 slots how to put them?

(also I will put a netstor turbo box too with another 4 titans on it)

Do you have any recommendation of a motherboard that run fine or a complete system spec?

thanks very much.

easily =) You need 4 PCIe slots with dual spacing, that means X79 or Z77/Z87 with PLX chip onboard..- so nothing speciall..buy a mobo and slot 4dual slot cards.

Yes. That or ASUS P9X79 WS LGA 2011, which is designed more for workstations and less for gaming.

That board is a beast. Would 4 titans 'have' to be water cooled?

nobody knows..as nVidia hasn't released any news. so everything in the web is pure speculation based on..'air' =) sure it's going to be update, but noOne knows for sure what it will bring and when.

Stick with what You need & leave some room for upgrades - the best advise =)
