Hi again. Ive some questions about these new pci risers and dont understand the 3 different types of connectors



https://ibb.co/joHttk


1 Sata 15 pin (next to the usb)
1 6 pin
1 molex (4pin)

What are these 3 types for? Can i choose one i like? Do ive to plugin in all 3 to power?
On the last pci risers there was only on molex for power connection.

This newer riser just gives you more options to power them. You only need any one of those 3 connectors to be powered for it to function properly.

Seems like a really poor design having the molex and the PCIe pointing up towards the card like that. It would be a real mess powering them that way.

Stop buying industrial miners, running them at home, and then complaining about the noise.

Exactly what I thought when I first saw them! Molex and 6-pin will practically be unusable considering their placement on board.

Very stupid connector design for the 4pin molex and 6pin connectors.
