First a note on my project - making the molex riser is easy as oatmeal.  First time, including watching a video on soldering (it has been quite a while heh forgot to use flux as I don't use it with LEDs), and practicing a few times <20 min.  Welds are solid.  Will take <5 next time Smiley

But comp still crashes sporadically every ~5 hours.   What a pain I'm pissed at my rigs right now - but thats another topic..

I think Cablesaurus is the only molex-modded seller. I'd look into how to make my own but with BTC (and LTC   Wink ) time=difficultie$

Not true! I sell them as well for much cheaper, and based in the US Smiley

Thanks for the info Cryptocables, you have decent prices for sure!  And domestic shipping is LEGIT.

I buy chinese 1x > 1x risers and file off the end so it is open ended. 2 bucks each, and easy to plug in/unplug. Won't damage the video cards or motherboard. I find 16x risers need an excessive amount of force to plug in/unplug and the risers easily break because of this.

That Is a trick I surely will have to try...
