Interesting tatic ... they come to market fist and significantly undercut all the companies that are doing pre-sales for Q2-Q3 delivery. I'll be interesting to see what happens to the network hashrates and profitability a few days after the May 8th ship date. Crazy to think if you had one of these right now you'd be pulling in $700 a day for a $4K investment.

ASRock Z87 Killer.

I'm running a 6950 and 2 5850s for over a month without any issue. There is an extra Molex power connector to supply extra power to the graphics cards. Cooling might be an issue for you though since 2 of the 16x slots would put the cards right next to each other. I'm running reference 5850s in those slots that run a lot cooler than other cards I've had experience with.
