I'm wondering how everyone here runs multiple of these?
I have a cable that goes to my PSU from my SSD that has 3-4 attachment sites for SATA... Can I attached 3 risers to one of these cables and then attach that single cable to my PSU? will it be fine drawing 3x75w though it? I'm having a tough time getting an actual clear answer and I just had to post this here

You asked me multiple times by pm, which I answered. Your cards most likely do not draw 75 watts through that connection, none that I have tested have gone more than 40-45. Either way, lets assume each card draws 50 watts from the 12v line. That's 150 - 200 watts per power cable, which is 12-17 Amps. Well within the range of acceptable current for a single 18 gauge wire up to 5 feet.

I can confirm the same results as RickJames, you will have no problem attaching to 3 gpus on the same sata component cable. The risers work great.

How would we know when our order is shipped? Do you update the tracking on PayPal?

Most orders will show tracking through paypal if they paid with paypal. You will also get a notice from my website directly when I change the order to shipped. Thanks!

Plug things in with the power off, wiggle the molex cable when inserting to make sure pins line up, if it fights you, don't force it as you'll push the pins out.... Make sure the small riser card is all the way on the end of the pci-e slot, with the notch hanging over the edge. DON'T PUT THAT IN BACKWARDS!!
That should be good.

I'm from Canada and I sent you a PM. I'd like 20 risers asap. You didn't answer so I guess you either don't ship to Canada or cannot fullfill my order anytime soon ?

Thanks! One more question. I only have two 1x PCI ports(didn't realized when i purchased 3 1x risers), is it possible to plug 1x riser into 8x or 16x port without messing anything up? I can live without doing it, just keeping one on mobo interferes with setup.

Yes, they work in any PCI-e slot. As for canada, you can make a purchase directly from my bitcoin only website www.bitcoingrowing.com Thanks!

Ok thank you, when I was reading my PM's answers were not clear and defined atleast not to me (grammar was a bit off in one instance of singular/plural, so you never know)
I ordered 6 60cm though and they have yet to ship/alert me that they've shipped.

I ordered some before that I've been using for a few weeks And just ordered 10 more through the BTC store. I put 5 of the long and 5 of the short. If you have shortages just send me 10 of whatever is easiest. If you end up with leftovers hit me up I kinda want like 10 more but I'm trying to sit on BTC as long as I can while the prices are low.

All sizes will be in stock on monday AT THIS TIME. I'll be sold out of the 12" ones soon, so those will probably be in on tuesday. Just place your order anytime. I'm trying to collect as much btc as I can while prices are low

I just realized I bought 5 from your eBay store. Didn't know you sell them on your site, that would have saved you fees and $3 for me.
Which do you still have left? Or Monday is the day you get your shipment? I need 15 more. 12" ones will be too short

Everything will be here monday, plenty to go around and more arriving tuesday and wednesday If you order more from my website and include a note with your ebay ID I'll refund the difference you paid.

I'll also have 30cm nice powered ribbon cable risers next week, I don't have pictures of those yet. Others can try, but nobody can compete with my prices or service. If you have any questions just ask!

Newbie question: Will this work with my h81 pro btc mobo + 2x psu's. What's the advantage of this over add2psu? I'm mainly worried about tripping the circuit breaker, I'm running this from home.
