Title: is there a Converter for this sata input so i can get a 4-6 pin Post by: Mahmoud70 on August 13, 2021, 06:42:12 PM https://preview.redd.it/pbbql2r4zzg71.png?width=724&format=png&auto=webp&s=6c6b4495f57ba585fbb3702ac5a5f04e985fdad4
i want to use a risers with 6pin cable but with molex or sata it's less power than the pcie needs(75)w and i don't want to use the main pcie entrances on the power supply becuse i want tp use them for the cards so i was thinking is there a cable i can use to convert this output to 8pin ? even if i use 2 to get one 8pin ? can i use that?

Also this is for gpu mining not btc mining. Question should be in altcoins I will ask mods to move it. I will look for a link for what you want. https://www.walmart.com/ip/Cable-Matters-2-Pack-8-Pin-to-SATA-Power-Cable-SATA-to-8-Pin-PCIe-5-Inches/965486107? Now to feed sata into this use two Sata cables from separate jacks. So you can safely do two risers with four sata jacks.

(2x molex to pci-express 8-pin) Title: Re: is there a Converter for this sata input so i can get a 4-6 pin Post by: JayDDee on August 13, 2021, 10:04:01 PM I'm not aware of such a cable but it seems like a good idea. The thing is not all PSUs use the
same pinout so they would have to be custom made.

At op have the riser handle 50-80 watts usually only happens on high watt gpus.

No. And its not recommended - they arent meant to handle that kind of amps and will likely burn/melt. If using a low power GPU use a molex riser. Or if you still want to use a pcie powered riser, get a splitter cable and use that on your psu's pcie cable - use one end of the splitter to power the riser and the other to power the GPU. |
