Topic: 1X Riser in 16X slot - GPU Not detected (Read 7703 times)
Thanks, I'll just order the 16x -> 16x riser and be done with it.
With some mobos, you have to short some pins to make the x1 extender work in a x16 slot:

See the third post.
Be careful, though, as some have reported frying their boards doing this. I would order a x16 --> x16 connector, and maybe do the short trick while you are waiting for it to arrive (if you really want to mine this way in the meantime).

get a 16x to 16x riser
I'm sure this has been asked somewhere else but I've searched many times and cannot find this scenario in any results.
I have a 16x pcie slot on my MB and I plugged a 1X -> 16 Riser in the slot however the video card is not being detected. When I plug the 1x ->16x riser in a 1x slot on my motherboard it's detected and works fine.
Any ideas?
