You’ll need a single stick dime memory module. 1 x 4GB or 8GB DDR3 1600Mhz memory dimm
PCIe Risers x 6

SSD to install OS on, don’t need a big SSD this one will do https://www.amazon.co.uk/KingDian-Capacity-Promotion-Internal-Upgrade/dp/B019W1EXSC/ref=sr_1_1?s=computers&ie=UTF8&qid=1498643745&sr=1-1&keywords=32gb+ssd
You’ll need 6 graphics cards:

That one is good. Only buy MSI, Asus or Sapphire. Other brands are shit and they’ll fail after a few months.
This one is a little bit cheaper :

I actually use a 500w to power the mobo and then a DPS 1200FB to power the graphics cards. Only problem is that it’s a lot more involved getting the DPS 1200FB hooked up (although it’s way cheaper)
