(2) PCI-E 16x->16x (3) PCI-E 1x->1x Give me a price shipped in the US. I also am still looking for GPUs (5850s, 5870s specifically) and PSUs (950w or better). Also interested in Molex or SATA -> PCI-E power adapters Title: Re: [WTB] PCI-E Extender Cables Post by: Bogart on March 26, 2013, 03:28:39 AM http://cablesaurus.com/ has some of this kind of stuff, and takes BTC.

Thanks, I've been there though. $12.50-$17.50 for one of these extenders is a little pricey though.

I powered two gigabyte 5850s on a molex line, this is what happened. https://dl.dropbox.com/u/9768004/SAM_0071small.jpg https://dl.dropbox.com/u/9768004/SAM_0075small.jpg Title: Re: [WTB] PCI-E Extender Cables Post by: Nolo on March 26, 2013, 03:43:55 AM why not split your existing pci-e plugs? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16812198018 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16812198016 its better to supply power from 3 12v wires and 3 ground vs 1 12v and 2 grounds with molex/sata. otherwise you'll melt your cables. I powered two gigabyte 5850s on a molex line, this is what happened. I do that with some of them. But I've got a couple of damn multi rail PSUs that require me to connect atleast one card each to a molex rail and a sata rail in order to balance the load.
