X99 Build 4 way gpu

[JavierGonzalez78]

If anyone could help me out I’d greatly appreciate it. I have a motherboard that states it supports 4 gpus unfortunately I can install the fourth card due to the usb3 plug, power switch and mic cable and connections. Does anyone know how to get around this limitation? Riser card, angled adapter? Thank you in advance

Full system specs? Is this for gaming or something?

This here really depends on your use case, cause to my understanding Nvidia effectively killed off more than 2 gpus. I heard there's ways to get around that, but you're still talking about spending a lot of cashing on something with greatly diminishing results since nothing will make full use of all that.

 

Unless you're planning on doing something creative or technical, in which case I don't know.

Assuming you're still using the X99-E-10G WS then there isn't any USB 3 on the bottom of the board. Only USB 2 among other things. The other connectors should not interfere. Use cable ties if you have them to manage any slack in the cables and pull then as tightly as you can without damaging them. Routing them through case panel holes can really help.

 

GPUs definitely fit in the bottom slot. Just take your time when you're installing the bottom card.

My motherboard is a GA-X99-Gaming G1 wifi 

and since I have 4 GTX 960’s laying around I decided to use them. 
 

PSU is a 1200 watt

Buy something like this: https://www.newegg.com/p/N82E16812198087

 

Problem solved. 

 

Also why in your right mind would you want 4 GTX 960s? That's totally useless for basically anything.
