Title: Selling various used PCIe risers
Post by: twobitcoins on May 22, 2011, 06:36:43 AM
I am selling a variety of used PCIe risers.  I've listed what I paid for them (in USD).  As a general rule, I'm looking to get about half what I paid (BTC accepted of course), but feel free to make an offer.  Larger orders preferred; for small orders I'll need to charge a little extra to cover shipping.  I'm in the USA.  Buyers from other countries may need to pay a bit more for shipping.


1. PCIe x1 to x16 adapter (http://www.aerocooler.com/shop.cart?action=ITEM&prod_id=RC108X16X1)

Paid $16, 1 available


2. Cheap, low quality 6" PCIe x1 flexible risers (http://www.9mart.com/products/2-Lots-PCI-Express-Card-Extender-Cable-PCI%252dE-1X-Riser-Adapter.html)

Unmodified: paid $4.50, 5 available
With the end sawed off so it can take an x16 card: paid $4.50, 6 available


3. Expensive, high quality PCIe Gen 2.0 x1 flexible risers (http://www.orbitmicro.com/global/pe-flex1-g2-p-15071.html)

6" unmodified: paid $58.50, 1 available
12" unmodified: paid $73.50, 5 available
12" with the end sawed off so it can take an x16 card: paid $73.50, 2 available


4. 12" PCIe x1 flexible risers with separate power (http://www.amfeltec.com/products/x1pcie-riser.php)

These risers take their power from a separate connection rather than the slot on the motherboard, which is useful if you have too many cards drawing power from the motherboard.

I have two varieties:

Power from standard ATX power supply: These draw power from a standard floppy connector.

Power from external 12V power supply: These also use a floppy connector, but only the 12V and ground pins are used, allowing a 12V-only power source to be used.  This can be useful if you need to draw power from a power supply rail that only supplies 12V.  I have some adapters that can be used to convert from 6-pin PCIe to floppy (via molex) for this purpose -- see below.

Power from standard ATX power supply: paid $46, 3 available
Power from external 12V power supply: paid $56, 6 available


5. 6-pin PCIe to Molex power adapter (http://www.performance-pcs.com/catalog/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=34_186&products_id=21141)

Converts a 6-pin PCIe power source to a Molex connector.  Only 12V is provided, not 5V.  Useful for things that only need 12V, like fans or the powered riser above.

Paid $12.95, 6 available


6. Molex to floppy power adapter (http://www.performance-pcs.com/catalog/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=34_82&products_id=197)

Converts a Molex power source to a floppy power connector.

Paid $2.95, 4 available

Link for #3 is dead. Do you have any pics?

Are the powered 12" cables $56/ea, or for the lot?  I'm guessing each, but wanted to be sure.

Thanks!
