The batch I ordered in had issues with one or more of the components. So my new eta on hardware is the end of next week.

There'll be pics etc as soon as they land here  Grin

I can't wait for the detailed pictures.

Thanks so much Bigpiggy01 !!!

This may be really useful for me in the future.

How much to ship to UK ( duties Huh )

I don't read/speak Chinese, but if someone can order/sell me one, I will take a chance and report back as I need something like this.
Shows up fine in my browser - hit the auto-translate button (chrome).  1399 yuan isn't too much.

Subscribing as this looks like a perfect fit for my oil cooled rig.

one small comment; rather than removing the cpu heatsink, I assume you could use a PCIe16x cable with their male/male adapter and put the entire board a bit higher. At least Id give it a shot.

This is their new product, PCI-E 1x extender with external power supply, using standard SATA cable, so the length is customizable, only $15:

WOW. Those products are EPIC.

Somebody really needs to let us buy these puppies up !

Sata cables is also very nice idea and this time there is no need to have a different CPU cooler.

Any news from Bigpiggy01 ?

Got a link to that other board with the 7 ports?

That Taobao site is a pain to navigate! I live in australia so shipping is usually easy from china, i'm definitely going to order a couple of these and the sata extenders when I can figure out how to get them to send me the verification code properly!

Got my card a few days ago. I plugged the SATA extender into my PCI-E 16x extender, which was plugged into a PCI-E 1x-to-16x extender. I haven't got time to fill all 7 slots with video cards, only 2 slots on the extension card are currently occupied, with one more on the mainboard's PCI-E 16x slot. All three cards work great.

Sorry for the poor pic quality:
