Do you need PCI-E risers?
I run BuyAHash.com - We have the powered models in stock, ready to ship, and half the price of Cablesaurus. I used to buy from him until he lied about a few things. We can ship them next day, and accept PayPal.
Also, about the PSU - I reccomend OCZ, Seasonic, and Rosewill (the gold rated ones, not the Bronze). I’ve also used AZZA 1000w Bronze PSUs on some of my smaller rigs… That is about the cheapest I’d go.
The big thing about bigger/better/more expensive PSUs is that they are designed to be more efficient in regards to electricity. You may pay $50 more upfront on a PSU, but you will get that back in a few months due to electric bills. If you want to save a little bit, I would look into buying 2 cheaper PSUs (at least bronze rated), and get a dual PSU cable. We sell those too for $10. I’m starting to use them on my own rigs. You can save about 20-30% on a rig by buying 2 smaller PSUs from the same vendor. Of course, this mostly goes with 4+ card rigs.
If you have any questions, I will try to help… I own BuyAHash.com and have about 12 rigs deployed + have built another 4-6 for sale to people. I don’t know everything, but I know a good bit on building a cheap, effective Scrypt rig. Overall, everything looks like its coming together for you. The Seasonic 1250W is a beast of a PSU - probably the best on the market. Great for a 4x7950 rig.
[/quote]hey, was there a coupon code for your site for that half the price of cablesaurus deal you mentioned? Because you’re both $9 that i see. Since my other stuff is shipping, I’m going to be ordering from you as soon as that’s confirmed. Thanks!

Cablesaurus is $17.50 for a powered riser. Mine are $9.00, so essentially half off.
