Topic: Unpowered x16 to x16? (Read 780 times)
Of course the card has its own power connections and I modified the risers: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/guide-how-to-make-your-own-pcie-extender-with-molex-76121
How do I power them? I did see a tut but didnt perfectly get it LOL.
I tried it without unpowered and had a lot of unexplainable problems. Crashing drivers, low hash rate, high temps. Lots of them were solved when I powered them. You can do this in 10 min yourself 
Edit: although just 2 cards may be fine. I thought the limit from the motherboard is 75watt.

Well I was wondering if unpowered x16 to x16 is fine? I got 2 pcie x16 3.0 slots on my gpu so i figured if i got unpowered x16 to x16 it'd work as designed, right?
