Title: PCI-E Splitter Risers, anyone have experience with them?
Post by: tom_o on September 07, 2013, 07:26:57 PM
As the title, I've come across these for under $100:

The manufacturer website claims they're GPU compatible but no real further info.

Has anyone ever used these? Could be perfect for my needs. Want to get another couple of cards but not build a new rig.

You can even see on the picture it has the solder footprint for a 6pin power cable and what is probably space for ripple smoothing capacitors to take the strain off the motherboard and supply clean power to the cards.
