Q code 61 usually means there is something wrong vid card related (NVRAM), but I've also seen a corrupted bios use that code.

Did you try another GPU?
Did you try your GPU in another rig?
 
Any friends or family with computers that have a GPU you could borrow for testing?
 
i took the gpu's out still the same

On an X99 system you need a GPU in the system because there is no onboard GPU.
Taking out the GPU's and getting the same code makes me wonder if the GPU is just completely dead.

Have you tried each GPU by itself? You mentioned having two.
