Are these the correct connectors?
Pretty hard to tell, all I know is that they are 9*2 (18-pin) connectors, zeusbtc sells them for 50 cents, how much did you get them for on Ebay?
can someone confirm the resistor values or provide insight on what they're doing? does that resistance value matter that much or would, say, a 10k work fine?
Why not get the 4k7 / 4700-ohm resistors as they suggested since those are the once used by Bitmain anyway? is it hard to find? they seem pretty cheap on
Amazon. I am not sure why are you trying to risk trying something different, would love to know why.
I also think NotFuzzyWarm or HagssFIN will assist you best on whether or not you can other resistors and on what they actually do.
