Go into the motherboard BIOS settings and enable multiple GPU support. And then, after you have 2+ GPU in, you will need to press 'n' (if you don't have a monitor hooked up) to get passed the warning of not having a molex plugged into the mobo (assuming you have powered risers). You will be good to go. :)
