Title: Anyone had good luck with Cablesaurus PCI to PCI-E risers? Post by: AngelusWebDesign on June 30, 2011, 07:34:09 AM They sure look inviting, but I'd like to know if anyone's had any personal experience with them. Cablesaurus hasn't had them for much more than a couple weeks or so, so it's a pretty new item.
Do they work on old & new motherboards? Does the BIOS ever have a problem with multiple video cards on a single motherboard (talking about older motherboards here, in the days before Crossfire) What kind of compatibility do these things have? 100% -- 90% -- 50%? Thanks, Matthew Title: Re: Anyone had good luck with Cablesaurus PCI to PCI-E risers? Post by: IlbiStarz on June 30, 2011, 07:54:57 AM Read the whole thread, and look at all the positive feedback lmao :P Ordered 3 for myself, 2 of them were wrong items, but Cablesaurus replaced them easily and quickly, AMAZING service. I don't think motherboards have anything to do with it, only the OS. Linux can handle up to 8 gpus, Windows up to 4. However, with the new 11.6 drivers, Windows can also go to 8 I think. What do you mean by compatibility? I'm gonna say 100% because they work on all cards? *facepalm Woops I realized that you said PCI to PCI-e, and not PCI-e to PCI-e. :( Title: Re: Anyone had good luck with Cablesaurus PCI to PCI-E risers?

Thanks, Matthew Who knows man? We are all doomed you should be selling GPUs instead of buying PCI adapters. Title: Re: Anyone had good luck with Cablesaurus PCI to PCI-E risers?

I'd love for you to provide a link/quote where I said that. Title: Re: Anyone had good luck with Cablesaurus PCI to PCI-E risers?

If I tried to link to it there would be a list of 434 links. Every single one of your posts. Title: Re: Anyone had good luck with Cablesaurus PCI to PCI-E risers?
