For the non powered multiplier, if you connect to graphics cards, you need to power the PCIE slot separately any way, so there is no difference.

Hi,
Which riser is better for someone looking to hook the most gpu's up to a system.
A.) powered 1 to 4 PCI-E Splitter: https://www.amazon.com/Cablecc-Express-Switch-Multiplier-Splitter/dp/B073QNW3L9/ref=sr_1_2?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1504685701&sr=1-2&keywords=1+to+3+PCI+Express+1X+Slots+Riser+Card
B.) Non-powered 1 to 4 PCI-E Splitter: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B073W9KCFC/ref=ox_sc_act_title_10?smid=A3JV1FMRJ9GCIF&psc=1
The non-powered riser has much better reviews but the powered risers from what i have read would be much better for the motherboard and all components involved. The actual risers that i am attaching to the multiplier are powered with six pin cables. But what would be best for the 1 to 4 multiplier riser card. Or will either work? Using Windows 10 if it helps
Thanks
