Nice. Did you bend the aluminum yourself or buy angle stock? Those look like rivets? What about tapping the holes?

Angle stock/rivets. Too thin to tap holes.

Looking at the "PCIe 1x Slot Modified Riser Extender Cable". I assume that the "modified" part is that you cut open one end of it, so 16x cards can be inserted into the 1x riser? correct?

Correct. Modified cables are *now available* and the price list has been updated.
I'll be taking pictures soon as well and adding them to the eBay store for USD-preferring customers.

What is the benefit of PCIe x1 to 16x Adapter Modified Riser Extender Cable w/ Molex connector? Why would one want it with the Molex connector?

I sent funds for 1 of your pcie1x to pcie16x adapter w/ molex connector. I got a gmail error sending my email, but then it went through the second time, hopefully you get it.

These are for anyone running a 5970 or a 6990 Card via an extender cable. It has been shown that enough power is being drawn through the PCIe slot to cause physical damage to a cable in a short period of time with a highpower card. This modification allows bypassing power around the PCIe bus.

What lengths do you have the PCIe x1 modified cables in? These guys have up to 50cm but at some point the comms link will be affected I suspect. http://www.ameri-rack.com/ARC1-PESX1B-Cx_m.htmlAlso are your ribbon cables shielded (EMI shielding) like these ones? I'm up for one if length is longer than 10cm. If I can get 30cm would be great.

Agree, we want more info as to the length of those cables.

Hello folks,
Cable length is about 19cm or 7.5''. The cables are not shielded (at this time) though it is not an issue from what I've experienced as long as no devices touch the cables and the cables themselves don't touch each other. trentbz has no issues with his pictures posted above from what I've been told, if I understand correctly.
I should have a chance to hopefully get some decent pictures together tomorrow.
Thanks for the questions & input!

So do you have 1x extender with the other end cut open to allow a 16x to be inserted? You are losing a lot of business every day you delay those pictures.

I would be amused to know whether eBay cuts your listing short simply for including the word "Bitcoin", regardless of the fact that you're not mentioning it to solicit a non-PayPal payment.
And if not now, in the future.
I have seen a few ATI cards for sale on ebay recently promoting "Great for bitcoins!" in their titles...

It is not supposed to hold the card, it's only supposed to connect it.
Can you explain further? How is the card supported then? By whatever your heart desires..

I'd be interested in the modified risers. I'm assuming those are the ones with the power lines connected to a molex adapter, right?
