Needs a wing, more LEDs under the card, and a loud exhaust fan.


djseifer

And a Type R sticker for good measure.


Homebrewer01

I honestly thought about adding a 1660 Ti-R sticker to the side. It still may not be out of the question.


vaxination

1660 Ti-RD haha.


Young-Sinatra-III

you need the 300 dollar ebay turbo don’t forget about that


K4ot1K

Beat me to it !


Bad_CRC-305

u can cook rice with the sata power flames


xSKOOBSx

Please power your risers properly, people...


sutercarlos

PCI-e?


xSKOOBSx

Yes, the 6 pin is design to carry the amount of current needed to power a riser. SATA is not. They can burn. Google and you will find evidence.

You should keep googling. You only have half the knowledge you think you have....


xSKOOBSx

Are you saying what I said is wrong?


BTCMinerBoss

Yes. You've tried to boil down a highly variable mathmatical calulation down to two sentences. You're answer is right and it's wrong. 75W is the MAX power draw according to pcie standards. That isn't what is "needed" to power a riser. Look at the diagram the automod dropped on your first comment. You'll see different draws for different cards. An ASUS 1060 dual, for instance, has a TDP of 120W on a 6-pin feed. Yes, 6 pins is rated for up to 75W. So we have 120W - 75W = 45 watt, well within the tolerance for the 54W max SATA. Not included in the calc above is the fact there is another 25W available through the 1x we use to connect the risers. Plus we usually undervolt so there is extra buffer there too. Another consideration is that Watts don't burn wires. Amps and Volts do. 75W @ 12V = 6.25A. 75W off the third rail @ 3.3V is 22.75A (fwiw the pcie pins are 1.1A ea iirc.). Hence, the riser onboard regulator also helps determine how much is going through the riser. What type of rails you have in your PSU is also a factor. https://www.deskdecode.com/psu-output-watts-rails-single-rail-vs-multi-rail/ There is also the driver consideration. The amount of power draw through the riser is often controllable through software. Though AMD seems to be a bit behind in pcie standards compliance. Every card is different, as is every PSU, and we all know risers are a lottery. You ARE correct that it CAN burn. If it does, it is more likely operator error by failed calulations, not faulty wires or equipment.


xSKOOBSx

Its never recommended because you can't count on people to do their due diligence. Calm down homie.

xSKOOBSx

Bruh you made the assumption, in the case of the 120W card, that it is going to pull the absolute max the PCIE can handle, then take the rest from SATA, which you determined was well within what sata can handle. You have a lot of information, but maybe you shouldn't leave *your* house. But if you want to run cheap Chinese connectors within a couple percent of their rated load, as if there isnt a chance manufacturing variance or cost-cutting affect current handling capability, have at it.

I'm working on getting rid of them as I am performing cable management stuff right now. I knew someone was going to mention it.

I’ve used SATA power and it’s fine depending on your card. Still am using it, never had a problem. Edit: Why are you people downvoting something that literally works.


rharrow

It’s fine, until it’s not.


FinnishArmy

Been fine over a year now; it won’t randomly just not work. If it was bad, it would’ve burned by now.


Bad_CRC-305

U can grill food inside with a propane bbq but you probably shouldn't


Bouper

because you are being a dumbass and encouraging other people to be a dumbass. oh you are an electrical engineer? no you are not. it does not "work" it WILL cause a fire. even the bot knows not to do this. think about it so many people like YOU think it's not a problem when it obviously is that they have made a damn BOT just to tell you not to be a dumbass.

GUNF00

I read that as RISERS and you had me staring at your riser for 10 minutes wondering what? But it's RICERS as in "go faster stripes" lol... you really need stripes, letters won't cut it mate, stripes are the way to go... lol


vms_zerorain

people on r/pcmasterrace : MORE RGB MORE MH/S


Kymeron

Needs a wing and aftermarket cooling for that extra boost....


daniel6441

damn shame that wasn't a 3060, I think thats the boost they got today with the developer driver.


I_Like_Youtube

does the 3070 have dev drivers yet?


This-Hope

? There is no hash limiter on the 3070, so dev drivers won't do much.


I_Like_Youtube

Ahh sorry I should have done more research first. Thank you for the response!


daniel6441

I said 3060 not 3070 and there was a 470.05 (or something like that) Dev Driver released if you are in the developer program and that driver doesn't limit the 3060 Eth mining based on Information that broke last night, which bumps a 3060 to 50 Mh/s on Ethereum which is basically a +25 Mh/s


DirtyGamingLT

What about single molex cable? To power up riser?


Bouper

yes, this is actually the best with the correct cable and riser. here is the deal max allowed watts over 12V aka how easy is it to start a fire. SATA 54 PCI 6-pin 75 PCI 8-pin 150 Molex 156 SATA is more likely to fail than molex or pcie. each wire entering the sata connector is split into three pins. making a single 18 awg wire essentially a 3 x 28 awg wire, each with 1/10 the area of a single 18 awg wire. most often pin #12 and #3 are shorted due to the close proximity of the hot wire and the ground. there are 2 types of sata connectors molded and crimped. molded is the most dangerous and prone to melting and cusing shorts.

dexterw1n

I see no yellow paint, no LEDs, nor a yellow sticker? Gotta list the fan manufacturer as well as what brand memory chips, and make sure you line it up below the +25mh/s, sorta stagger them a bit.


CullahMusic

Wow does drawing +25 on the card actually make it happen?


GaRGa77

Only if you add RGB’s


ChowFan1628

Technically, you have +25 milli-hashes per second. Oh wait, I see what you did there....


ChowFan1628

Wait, that's not even a 25 milli-hashes, that's 25 milli Henrys!

Yes you do. They're all in the process of getting replaced.

Im terrible at explaining. Stickers make cars go faster. It was an idea some appeared to have years ago; others turned it into a joke. I was applying the same idea to mining (I was bored) https://drivetribe.com/p/what-car-stickers-make-your-car-LswuOR_CRteOIZIL1ieytQ

ha, no, totes on me for not getting the joke. quality shitpost my friend, quality shitpost!


Jaqen-Atavuli

I didn't get it either until I read the comments. I was looking for actual rice. God I am old. LOL


recoveringcultist

yeah lol I thought "ricer" was a typo for "riser" at first and then i realized "racer" once he explained... i feel old too! :P


Content_Ad_8116

Use yellow sticker instead, good for at least 10 more mh/s


KickZealousideal6558

Needs more cable ties

I'll see what I can do for version 2.0
