[IN STOCK USA+CA] USB Risers, Powered Risers $5.99 and Dual PSU - HashRateStore

[sal002]

I just got my cable - and great fast delivery!

A couple questions (as I couldn't get the card to be recognized):

1.  I am looking at the end that plugs into the card and (with the side that has the solder points to the right) the three left-most pins from the card are not soldered down - is this accurate?

2.  There looks to be three pins that have solder on them to the far left, but nothing is connected

You can kinda see what I am talking about here - http://coinchoose.com/img/pins.JPG

Thanks sal002!

Those pins don't need to be soldered as they're not connected to anything. If you peel back the blue tape you should be able to see that the PCB lines for the disconnected pins don't connect to the extender ribbon.

Here's a few quick shots that I took with one of the risers minus the tape off one of my rigs.

A few troubleshooting tips:
Do you have another 1x-16x riser that you can try on the same slot?
Have you tried plugging the 1x riser into a 16x slot on the mobo?
Does the same video card work in a 16x slot without any risers?

FYI some motherboards require a short pin for it to detect the full length card on a 1x slot but try the basic troubleshooting steps first.

Let me know if you want to arrange a Skype call to troubleshoot! Just PM me your Skype.

Even the pins to the far left in your second pic?  There is solder there, but nothing is connected (looks like there might have been a pin there as I can see something in the connector but it might have broke off as nothing is there and nothing is soldered except some left over solder).  I don't have another rise, the card works in the 16x slot and I also tried plugging the riser into the 16x slot and card was still not recognized.

Hey everyone!

After getting feedback from our customers we've just added dual power supply connectors to our store!

They use two standard 24 pin ATX connectors for connecting power supplies for super-mega-hash-rate-rigs!

Check'em out here: Dual Power Supply Adapter Cable for 24 pin ATX

Has anyone used this ? any review ...??wanted to know performance before i receive it  ...

It is a really simple cable that switches a secondary PSU on. It does not affect performance at all.

Hey sal002,

The pins at the end aren't required either because they are not being used for anything, its only utilized in full length 16x-16x risers. The PCB trails from these pins shouldn't connect to anything either.

You'll probably need to short the PCI-E detection pins on your motherboard as this is usually a motherboard dependent requirement.



Here's a great write up that Marc Bevand did awhile back on how to do this.

Hi Grim!

Got your order on the web store and BTC was confirmed by the store yesterday. I'll resend the order confirmation email again through the web store.
Maybe it went into your junk mail folder, it tends to happen sometimes.

Let me know if you get it! Thanks!

[madkind]

My order should have been shipped yesterday : /

[Grim]

Thank you, got it.

 Will a 1x work in an 8x slot?

[Tootoot222]

Placed an order (#1013) today for 2 of the 1x -> 16x cables, hoping they arrive this week, will update when they do

 Please do not forget to remember those who gave the ultimate today my friends. If you know one, call their family and say thank you. At least send an email or FB shout out. I just placed an order for 6 and truly look forward to receiving them.

Hey Madkind,

Yes, it was shipped that day. The shipping confirmation email was just delayed.

Let me know how everything is after you receive it!

Thanks again!

Yes, it most definitely will!

Got it right here! Will ship them out tomorrow.

Hey 3ham3!

I have your order right here and it's scheduled to ship tomorrow morning because it didn't make the last pickup today before closing.

Nice avatar btw!

Let me know if you have any other questions or need anything else. Thanks again!

 It does not even show I have an order with you on your website, and I know damn well i sent the BTC. At least before it showed order on hold... now it acts as if I never did. Status please.
