Dear Friends

im need help about Pci-ex 1x to 16x riser cables

Which cable to use? Usb or IDE? what's the difference ?

I'm thinking of using the flat for not spending energy

I have saphire rx 480 vga card

Thanks
Almir

Stick with powered risers. The unpowered flat ribbon cable style wires are too thin for using under constant load. The best kind have a voltage regulator to make sure the card isn't pulling too much power from the slot. Performance wise for mining they are about the same. I prefer the six pin PCI-E  power connector risers as it distributes the load over more and thicker wires.
