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?

Here in my country, is hard to find titan cards, all are out of stock... strange!

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 =)
