The VER 006C riser kits are just what you need if you’re building an ethereum or other GPU mining rig. Whether a small open air or large rack-based mining setup, this will provide you with what you need to connect multiple GPUs to your rig’s mining motherboard. The power is supplied through a MOLEX 4 pin connector on the riser card, which allows you to bring power directly from your PSU to the riser card thus lowering the power burden on your motherboard.
The ethereum mining riser cards come with 4 high quality capacitors, which they say makes it more reliable and a better choice than some of the competitors that only have 3 capacitors per card.
The board has 3 holes for securing it to your case, and effectively connects your PCI-e 16x mining GPU to a PCI-e 1x slot on your motherboard without affecting mining speed.
These usb risers are much cheaper than some of the other options, and these are the ones I decided to go with. Some purchasers claim to have received some dead-on-arrival risers, but all of the recent reviews are good so I decided to give them a chance and save almost 30% over some of the units from bigger name brands in the space.
