They do work but only if your CPU/Chipset support enough PCI-e Lanes. Example a Intel 775 Motherboard with a Core 2 Duo can run 6 cards using one of these but you have to turn off almost everything in bios to free enough pci-e lanes to get the 6th card to work.
But aren't they still communicating over a single PCI lane on the motherboard?

What about MSI Gaming M5 or Z170 Carbon
Or using m2 to pcie works ?

Has anyone used these on x1 or x16 pcie slots?
AS they are still communicating over a single PCIe lane on the cpu would they work?
