Hello,

I have a Asrock H110 BTC+ motherboard with a M.2 SSD connector. I've seen risers allowing to plug a GPU on that connector but before buying, I'd like to know if there are any restrictions or things I should be aware of.
My motherboard has 13 PCIe slots but one of them is making my rig unstable so instead of getting rid of my GPU, I'd like to use it through the M.2 connector.

Thanks
Laurent

13 GPU Nvidia Rig running under Ubuntu 16 (eth hash rate: 300+Mh/s @ 1000W for whole rig): 3x EVGA GTX 1060 3Gb (24MH/s @ 65W) + 6x MSI Armor GTX 1060 3Gb (24MH/s @ 70W) + 1x MSI GTX 1060 (24Mh/s @ 65W) + 3x Zotac GTX 1060 (24MH/s @ 65 W). PSU 2400W, Asrock ASRock H110 Pro BTC+, cheap Chinese risers, Kingston SSD 120Gb, 8Gb memory. Selling some of my GPUs (around 200€, still under warranty), if you're interested, contact me in private.

Thanks, I was going to go for option B but the thread doesn't mention anything about consequences or restrictions linked to this type of connector. I have powered risers already.
