Just Have to ask:
 
Are you still planning to remove the DVI-D port on two of the GTX 1070's to facilitate single slot water cooling in order to use 5 cards in your Build?

Chris21010
yes, and i do not care about warranty. if one was to fail i have a 60% chance that it will be a card still under warranty, so there is that.

That's Cool, I realize a single slot solution is the only way to install the 5 graphic cards. It will be interesting to see the completed setup/operating temps of the cards and the PPD when you have finished it.

eyup, i figured i have to go all out at some point and this will be my first PC that surpasses the hobbyist level and goes into enthusiast. but alas i do have a budget ceiling else 1080 FTW is what i would have gone with, just can not drop another $1K into this for them.

So, you're just shy of 3 million PPD depending on WU, that's pretty impressive! Did you go with the X99 Classy, as you were discussing in another thread? How do you like the new case, are there some things you don't like? I'm very interested to see the progress in this project, especially the water cooling aspect. Thank you for sharing so far!! I want one. :)

i made a thread about my thoughts on the case so far: http://forums.evga.com/DG87-Its-All-About-The-Details-m2534504.aspx i did decide to go with the FTW-K strictly because there is less RED on it, my colors are green and black. i plan on keep you guys posted with the project here as i can and i hope to be over 3 million on this machine, that's my goal anyway.

You should get allot more points than that once you get them cool.  My 1080 FTW and 1070 SC run about 1.2 to 1.5 million per day, my other 1070 SC in the other box is running 650K on average per day.
