Re: Radeon released RX 480. (Card is Released)

The RX480 killing mobos really isn't much of an issue for miners since we all use powered risers. The ribbon risers usually have a thick 16AWG cable connected to the molex, I am sure this cable can handle 100Watts no problem.

However no idea how those USB risers will work since they are powered by the SATA connector and those usually have a smaller gauge cable then regular molex.

One cable will handle 100W without problem. But do you have 6 molex cables connecting to the power supply?

I know with mine I have enough spaces to hook 4 modular molex into the PS

What PSU is that? Do you have 4 molex connectors in parallel or in series? If its in series then it won't work since there is only 1 wire.
