I need:
(2) PCI-E 16x->16x
(3) PCI-E 1x->1x

Give me a price shipped in the US.

I also am still looking for GPUs (5850s, 5870s specifically) and PSUs (950w or better).

Also interested in Molex or SATA -> PCI-E power adapters

Now, let's say you and I go toe-to-toe on bird law and see who comes out the victor? The Attorney: You know, I don't think I'm going to do anything close to that and I can clearly see you know nothing about the law.

Thanks, I've been there though. $12.50-$17.50 for one of these extenders is a little pricey though.

why not split your existing pci-e plugs?

its better to supply power from 3 12v wires and 3 ground vs 1 12v and 2 grounds with molex/sata. otherwise you'll melt your cables. I powered two gigabyte 5850s on a molex line, this is what happened.

I do that with some of them. But I've got a couple of damn multi rail PSUs that require me to connect atleast one card each to a molex rail and a sata rail in order to balance the load.
