Ones I highly recommend...

I just do 2 cards per power cable

I bought version 6 risers off ebay from a guy in the US, and new cables from Amazon, problems are all gone. I think it was the cables more than anything because I tested them first with existing risers (which said v6 but had tiny capacitors and were from Amazon in a 6-pack).

I'm doing 2 per molex on some, 1 per molex on others.

Thanks guys! This thread helped!

$12 each per version 6 PCIe USB riser is highway robbery.

Has anybody found a bios for the msi z97 gaming 5 to force the 1x pcie slots to gen1 / 2.5gt, default value is gen3 / 5.0gt. GPU clock on the x1 pcie slots are throttling.
