The USB 3.0 cable is just used to extend the PCIe connections, it's not using the USB protocol.

Good luck finding mineworthy cards using PCI. That does not solve that the first part is only using the usb as a data transfer from an existing pci-e port not actually a usb>pcie adapter Title: Re: How to run ~30 video cards on your laptop Post by: snowcrashed on May 31, 2013, 06:38:35 PM I can only imagine the nightmare of trying to diagnose any problem with this many adapters/extenders/hubs.

If you had to pay a qualified tech to set that up it would probably be around half the costs of the video cards themselves -- and it might even end up proving impossible after having to pay the guy .
