As you can see, there is no Mobo listed yet.
I just have no idea which one i should take.

Powah ^.^
Try not to buy hardware twice if you don't have a plan to sell it. This motherboard should do well. It has nice spacing for 3 cards and allows for up to 6 with risers. The 1080ti is a great choice and shouldn't be obsolete any time soon.

If you use electric heating during the winter you should consider running mining in the rig's down time as it is profitable now. Although the FE card likes to sit at 84C which is a little warm for me, so bumping up the fans is required.

Okay so i better stick to 1 GPU and buy everything on list & the mobo you recommanded.
I also love the idea of mining in the winter, cuz i have a swimming pool wich has heating systems in the pool house. The pool house has electric heating in the winter to make sure the system wont freeze/expand so the pool house has to be atleast + 1 °C.

I hope that makes mining a bit profitable so i cold buy a new GPU over time, or upgrade something else.

EDIT: Details for the Mobo "Supports 7th/6th Generation Intel Core Processors"
i am using a "intel 8th Gen Core i3-8100" wich says "Compatible only with Motherboards based on Intel 300 Series Chipsets".. no i am thinking if those will fit or not :/
