Hello, I am planning on doing the exact same thing. Right now I am using 2 GPU's for Octane rendering but I am planning on building a 4-GPU rendering rig running on a X99 mobo for some additional power.
I first had my sights on ASRock x99 WS but couldn't find a good deal locally so I've shifted over to the Formula OC, it seems however not a lot of people have succeeded running a hackintosh on this board aside from a few random posts here and there

Apparently it uses the same circuit board as the ASRock X99 Fatal1ty Professional http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews...x99-professional-3.1-motherboard,4235.html#p1
So one might find a successful build on that particular board and try it with either.
I might just go ahead and order one of these to give it a try very soon.
Meanwhile I would love to hear any thoughts on how well 4 GPU's run on X99 boards from anyone who has tried it.
