Know before you buy
This cable is specifically designed for PCIe 3.0 bandwidth. If you use it with a PCIe 4.0 card, you will need to manually set your motherboard's PCIe slot to 'Gen 3' mode in the BIOS to ensure a stable connection.
This cable is designed for cases that support vertical GPU mounting. Please ensure your specific case has the necessary mounting brackets and enough clearance for the 300mm length before purchasing.
When used within its PCIe 3.0 specifications, this cable maintains full data integrity and should not negatively impact your gaming performance or frame rates.
The cable features a high-quality, flexible ribbon design that allows for easier routing and positioning compared to rigid alternatives, making it well-suited for complex builds.
No, this is a passive riser cable. It draws power directly through the PCIe slot on your motherboard, so no extra power connections are needed.
