I didn't say them being legit was a lie, cracked Win 7 or 8 installations will not get disabled. That is the lie. Second, there is NOTHING WRONG with ribbon risers as long as you power all the riser molex connectors from the main PSU, not the auxiliary PSU. So as long as you do that, you don't NEED to cut them.
Also, you used the word 'unsafe', not 'dangerous.'

Cracked win7 win8 will eventually get disabled, whether you update them or not. That is no lie. Just because they have worked for extended periods of time without consequence, doesnt mean tomorrow you wont connect to the miner to figure out why it wont start, only to see a sailboat from MS.
Never bought Windows, and NEVER have had an installation disabled. No one I know has, either, and all of us update them. Are we all just lucky?

lol, this is such a limiting statement. As long as I dont leave my house I wont get hit by a car.... Maybe I will limit myself to the confines of my home...
Most cards worth mining with draw 50+ watts from the pci-e. These rigs can receive that power from ANY psu, which allows me to distribute even that load, making it S A F E from pulling too much from the main psu, which makes the inability to do so U N S A F E in most cases.
Obvious strawman is obvious. You're saying proper planning and never leaving the house are the same thing. Yes, you can use either PSU to power USB risers, but if you plan properly, you don't NEED to worry about it being unsafe. Choose a main PSU slightly more powerful than the auxiliary PSU. Oh my god, I have to plan! That's just as ridiculous as never leaving my house! No matter what equipment you have, if you're stupid - doing something like overloading the main PSU - then you're gonna be running an unsafe rig.

Lol I had to quote that twice, because it just that stupid of a statement. You'd rather skimp on pci-e risers in order to spend even more on a main psu to handle the draw... or at least make it seem to others as if its ok. Yes there are rigs working just fine with crappy chinese ribbon risers, that doesnt mean its good advice to use them. These just happen to be better chinese pci-e risers and well worth the money.
Thousands of dollars worth of cards, only to be limited by the risers... thats pretty stupid. Maybe this isnt about lies, but stupidity instead...
Again, if you plan it properly, you'll be spending less. I'm not saying USB risers are bad, all I'm saying is ribbon risers are not unsafe, as you make them out to be.
But none of this was really all that upsetting. responding with one sentence, stating "Awful lot of lies in there to sell your shit..." just to have something to say, and then having to rationalize for your willingness to be inadequate is pathetic.
I may have over explained, or stated opinions I might personally share, but none of it was a lie. I am not a liar, and nothing listed is "shit"

I didn't say it just to have something to say, I said it because your advertisement is full of shit from the standpoint of someone who is experienced with mining as well as computers in general. If it's your opinion that MS will kill cracked installations (no matter how wrong it may be) say that, don't state it as fact. Same with the risers.
