Cheap multiple PCIe motherboard

So I am trying to put some old hardware to use for crypto mining and as I don't have to worry about electricity price anything i do make is pure profits.

I am looking for a motherboard that would fit in my old Coolermaster mastercase 5 that would have 2 or more PCIe ports and will fit my old i7 4770k 1150 socket.

I have been looking for hours now but still haven't found anything under 100 Euros, so before buying those boards I would like to know if anyone else has any idea's.

You're looking for multiple 16x slots to have the GPUs in case right? Two would generally be offered to enable SLI/Crossfire so less likely on lower end boards.

 

Otherwise most mobos would have more than a few slots you could use with risers.

Just a heads up, you're likely to get some angry responses.  Because miners have lead to the price increase of GPU's, people aren't exactly fond of them, and certainly not ready to help.

Make sure to quote or tag me (@JoostinOnline) or I won't see your response!

im not mining with new hardware it's just old stuff that is lying around, I don't buy GPU's for mining I buy them for gaming, I myself am not fond of them buying up all the GPU's... but what is wrong with putting some old hardware to use to make some allowance xD the only thing i'm going to be buying is the motherboard...

is it a problem that they dont have the clip to hold on the GPU ?

Not sure I follow you. Are you wanting to keep the cards in case as normal, or doing something more interesting with risers? Either way, it comes down to mechanics of the situation.

Probably talking about the pcie lock.

If its like mine then that's not an issue.  I've never run into any gpu sag or the like.20180207_182114.thumb.jpg.5dc17a6de1683490ec428b6016642ade.jpg

Want to custom loop?  Ask me more if you are curious

yes, i just want to keep them in a case in a corner of a room running, so that they don't attract much attention, because i don't have another spare room to set the thing up in.

:D thanks man!  If you want to see it in a build (pc-o8, hardline, 6950x and 980 ti) follow my account.  I'll be posting a build log soon.
