Re: Need help in managing the cables in Corsair RM1000X for mining with 5 GPUs

Hi Guys,

I just got a used Corsair RM1000X PSU and planning to mine with 5 GPUs(1060 6GB, 1070 8GB, 1660 ti, 2 x Rx580). I am currently mining with these 5 cards in two different PCs and I wanted to make it as one with the help of RM1000X PSU.

By browsing the internet I can see that powering the risers with SATA is not a good idea as it can burn out any time. So I wanted to make use of 6 pin connector to power the riser. Need suggestion from experts on how to manage these five cards with the RM1000X PSU.

Thanks in advance.

I have the same power supply. Sata raiser is not the best, but it can be used for 1060 6GB and 1660 ti graphics cards.
For other video cards, you can use 4 pin raisers.
For 1080 I use 6 pin raisers.
1070 8GB and Rx480 have been working on 4 pin raisers for 4 years already.
This unit has very good original cables, I connect them to the raiser without adapters.
