OK so I can see how this moves the power from the 24 pin connector, but surely all your doing is moving it from there to the bus connectors?
Again I say I’m no electronics engineer but I would have thought the 24 pin connector had the largest tracks thou the the MoBo as that’s where they are designed to get the power from, not to start dragging it from another PCIe socket.
I’m struggling to find an analogy to use to put this into perspective at the moment, but can fully understand how powered risers (we are all calling them that but is that what they really are?) with the cables back to the board will help as the only place the power can be draw from is the PSU and the only place it can go is to the card plugged into the “riser” but these seam to me like all your going to do is move the power problems from one place to another, and where your moving it to is the tiny tracks of copper printed on your MoBo which can’t be a good thing!
I need to do a little more research on it I must admit, but for me right now these devices are defiantly a no.
