Looks super! What kind of PSU is that? Powered risers?

Thanks!
PSU is Enermax Platimax 1500W. 4 non-powered risers, and one powered.

Just curious - how did you figure out that only 1 of the risers needed to be powered? was it not working or is the riser the only 1x etc?

I ran it for a few weeks with 4 cards on non-powered risers. Then I felt like adding a fifth card. But was unsure if the mobo would survive. Look for massnerder's thread about the rig fire he accidentially caused. That's why I went for powered riser for the fifth card.

Those Gigabyte mobos are known for their hot NB. I tried to tame the 990x then gave up and ended up sending it in for RMA/refund after adding the 5850 because I knew the heat would damage stuff and/or eventually catch fire.

Temps ?
