I personally got the Lian Li 8FI, which will fit 4 cards as it has 8 expansion slots. I have 3x5830 inside with 1 extra free slot in between each other.
One backend had troubles and monitoring didn't catch it. It's repaired now. I'm sorry for troubles...
Thank you, all miners are up and running 
Good job!Wow.. I found another bock...

Hahaha. I hear ya. Watching a reporter on MSNBC talk about Apple's iCloud was mind-numbingly awful. NBC as a whole must have not a bad recruitment process, but none at all.
Good to know idiotic reporters are everywhere:) Not just where I live:DHahaha. I hear ya. Watching a reporter on MSNBC talk about Apple's iCloud was mind-numbingly awful. NBC as a whole must have not a bad recruitment process, but none at all.

You will earn but not make a profit. I sold my GTX460 and got 3x5830:)Re: Need help picking a motherboard and power supply...can donate some bitcoin
I run all this setup on Corsair AX-750 without problems:
AMD Phenom II 955 X4 Black Edition

MSI 890FX-GD70
4x Corsair 2GB 1600Mhz CL9 DDR3
3x Sapphire 5830 Xtreme
1x WD Velociraptor 300GB
2x Samsung F1 750GB 7200RPM
2x Samsung F2 1,5TB 5400RPM
6x 120mm fans

What OS are you running? I assume Windows if it's also a gaming rig. Win 7? 32/64-bit?
I have the MSI FX890-GD70 and I would not recommend to use more than 2 GPUs inside a normally ventilated PC Case. I have 3x5830 and currently am running only two of them.
I'm using the MSI FX890-GD70 too, with 4x5850, no extenders, in a Coolermaster HAF-X. The 3 bottom cards are overclocked to 900/300, the top one only to 820/300 because of cooling problems... But this way, they run at 74°C (top card), 70°C (2 cards in the middle) and 57°C (bottom card) doing about 1.3GHash/sec. All I did was spacing the cards using some plastic parts and installing one optional 120mm-fan inside the case, blowing directly towards the cards. Power usage is about 670W.
It is actually a nice challenge getting a decent PC case with enough expansion slots AND HDD space...Plus it cannot be "not nice"

Small update: I did a mild ghetto mod, took out the PSU from the Fractal Design Define R3 (has only 7 expansion slots, so when the GPU card is in the last slot, it collides with the PSU) and used the last slot on the mobo (FX890-GD70) for the 3rd 5830. So now I have a empty slot between each of the 3 GPU cards, temperatures are at 75/75/78 at default clocks.
So now I am looking to get new case, probably will go with LIAN LI PC-8FIB as it has 8 expansion slots (as opposed to the Fractal Design which has only 7).

Please note this is not a dedicated mining rig, I use it for occasional gaming and also serves as home file-server.

I have the MSI FX890-GD70 and I would not recommend to use more than 2 GPUs inside a normally ventilated PC Case. I have 3x5830 and currently am running only two of them.
My PC is not a dedicated miner so I still wanted to maintain a "classical" setup of all the cards plugged inside the case (which is Fractal Design Define R3) and with plenty (2x front intake, 1x sidepanel, 1x inside to push air between GPUs, 2x exhaust) of 120mm Noctuas I reach approx 90°C on the GPU closest to the CPU (when every other PCI-E is populated - positions 1 & 3 & 5).
I am still scratching my head about how to utilize the 3rd and last 5830, but as I want to keep everything packed inside the case (the PC is in my "working" room), it gets tricky.
