Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What does a PCI-E 1X to 16X riser card do?
A: A PCI-E 1X to 16X riser card allows you to plug a full-size PCIe x16 graphics card into a PCIe x1 slot on your motherboard via a flexible USB 3.0 ribbon cable. This is especially useful in multi-GPU rigs where you need to spread cards across an open-air frame for better airflow and cable management.
Q: What power supply connector does this riser card use?
A: This riser card uses a SATA to 6-Pin power cable, meaning it draws power directly from a standard SATA connector on your PC power supply. Most ATX power supplies include multiple SATA connectors, making this riser easy to integrate without additional adapters.
Q: Is this riser card compatible with my motherboard?
A: This riser card is compatible with any motherboard that has a PCIe x1 slot (or larger), which includes the vast majority of modern ATX and Micro-ATX motherboards. It is designed to work with standard PCIe x16 graphics cards and most ATX power supplies.
Q: How many riser cards can I use in one rig?
A: The number of riser cards you can use depends on how many available PCIe slots your motherboard has. Many mining-focused motherboards support 6 to 12 PCIe slots, allowing you to run multiple riser cards simultaneously for a full multi-GPU build.
