is it safe 3 risers plugged into the same sata cable

[hack4love]

my rig 7 rx560  

2pus

850 seasonic bronze

650 seasonic gold

i plug the mB and the 7 x risers and 4 gpu  in to 850 pus

i plug the 7 riser in to 850 pus  

3 in single sata cable and other 3 in other sata cable  and one in sata cable

i use 6 pin riser

and other 3 gpus plug to 650 pus

it could cause you issues, try to connect max 2 risers per cable

[EricJH801]

The main issue would be they overheat and start on fire.

I agree with previous poster, no more than 2 per chain and 1 if possible.

Remember on a Sata connector there is only a single 20-18 AWG wire actually providing 12v. You should do what the person I quoted said and just run 2 per cable run. I have hundreds of miners runnning 2 per with no issues whatsoever, if you bump that up to 3 you will eventually have fires/failures/sadness of some sort.

Melted connector, short circuit, fire etc  Only 1 sata riser on each cable.

Buy risers with gpu/pcie molex connector or what it’s called. Add second power supply with breakout board (with 12v in so both start at same time. Cable riser and gpu with separate cables from psu. Riser and gpu must always get power from the same psu. Go pro and safe. Don’t cheap out.

As long as you liquid cool that sata cable you should be fine.

the sata plug was cold the cable was A little bit worm

[BCCrypto68]

Going to have to confirm the no. I did it without much thought or foresight - melted the end of the sata cable that went into my PSU - so the cable and the port on the PSU are now no longer usable. I got lucky that's all that happened.

Just wow. I have changed mine NOW !

Thank you

[gsrcrxsi314]

Meh. Been running 4 Sata risers per PSU cable for months now. No problems.

8 GPUs (Rx 500)
8 V006c risers
8 SATA to 6-pin adapters
2 PSU SATA chains (4 per)
1 1200w plat PSU with metal barrel connectors

It’s fine.

Hello
I will say that everything depends on the model of graphics card that you use.
model of graphics card which bottom heated cables sata riser
example ASUS RX580 8GO DUAL OC background heating but cable sata until power supply.

Judging from my experience, the sata cable that is melted or burned is always the sata cable from the riser. So it would be fine to put 3 riser on a single sata Line (single rail PSU), if you have a good quality sata cable for a riser such as built-in sata cable from PSU (Original 18AWG Cable with a better socket).

I had a sata cable burn up with only 2 risers connected on an older cooler master M2 1000w

all depends on the power draw and the quality of the cables, that one lasted a few months before letting the factory smoke out

Yes this must happened to you coz cooler master is a shity company

max 1 riser per sata cable.

Why? because risers can use up to 75W. But a cable of SATA can only provide up to 56W more or less.

If you have normal cards, one riser per sata cable is just fine. two i wouldn't recomend it (the cable will get hot, really hot). If you have RX VEGA or 1080 or 1080ti mining with overclock, than SATA cable is a no go.

so it is safe 3 risers??? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
