Know before you buy
Yes, this cable is specifically engineered for PCIe 4.0 performance and has been tested with high-end GPUs like the RTX 4090 and RX 6950XT to ensure stable, error-free operation.
Absolutely. The cable features a flexible, ribbon-style design that makes it ideal for the tight spaces and unique orientations often required in ITX cases.
No. The cable is built with individual laneway shielding to prevent interference and signal loss, which helps eliminate common issues like Blue Screens of Death (BSOD) or WHEA errors.
The cable measures 27cm (10.6 inches) in length. We recommend measuring the distance between your motherboard's PCIe slot and your case's vertical mount to ensure this length provides enough slack for a clean installation.
This cable uses a hand-soldered 4-layer PCB and gold-plated connectors. These materials improve signal integrity and long-term durability compared to lower-cost, single-layer alternatives.
