So it's the more affordable Hammer? 

 

They should get three Titan X GPUs and throw them in. 

 

Oh lordy. 

Our Grace. The Feathered One. He shows us the way. His bob is majestic and shows us the path. Follow unto his guidance and His example. He knows the one true path. Our Saviour. Our Grace. Our Father Birb has taught us with His humble heart and gentle wing the way of the bob. Let us show Him our reverence and follow in His example. The True Path of the Feathered One. ~ Dimboble-dubabob III

I'll see what prices I can hit with a pile of Titans.

How many PCIE lanes does Z97 have again...?

Enough to warrant three 290's, or only two?

16 lanes. 

 

So 8/4/4 config. Which is perfectly fine. But X79/99 i would still go for.
