LINKUP - Ultra PCIe 4.0 X16 Riser Cable [RTX3090 RX6900XT x570 B550 Z590 Tested] Shielded Extreme High-Speed Vertical Mount Gaming PCI Express Gen4┃Universal 90 Degree Socket{30cm} 3.0 Gen3 Compatible

This cable seems designed for very specific screw placement on the motherboard. Mine has that screw 1cm further from the back panel, and so the card isn't fastened to the case. They coud've made the mounting board a bit longer with more screw placement options (and perhaps a perforation to break off any excess). This would make it perfect.

First of all I would like to thanks LINKUP , Family they help me purchase the product.I tested LINKUP riser cable with RTX3090, Asus, Zotac & Palit @ full throttle speed and LINKUP Riser Cable working fine with best performance...

Works like a charm in the NZXT H1. I was worried that it would be too short, but my concerns were unfounded. RTX 3070 now has the space to stretch its legs, thanks to this Gen 4 riser! Well done Linkup, its a great product.

After many failed attempts this Riser cable really does work on a PCI 4.0. Thermaltake cables no so much.Test rig:Asus Rog Dark Dero Crosshair VIIIAsus Strix 3090 OCAMD 5900X

Worked perfectly. No issues combining it with a Phanteks mount.

Hi, As advertised its tested with different graphics card but they did not detailed what kind of test they have performed.I installed it, as far as normal display is concerned, it worked fine. As soon as i started CSGO (Game) session, display hanged after 2 minutes. Had to restart my PC, started CSGO again, hanged again.Removed the extension cable, started CSGO and problem is resolved. So i think this cable is not capable of load.Regards,Mazhar

Long enough for my custom setup and works perfectly

Im somewhat confused by this cable, and definitely expensive for what it is, its marketed as a PCI-e 4 cable but its not really that, so think twice before buying it, its an over priced PCI-e 3 cable that allows you to connect a PCI-e 4 GPU to it without getting BSODs and WHEA errors that PCI-e 3 cables might give you, this cable still requires you to set your GPU slot in your motherboards bios to PCI-e 3 mode, not PCI-e 4, so even if you're running a PCI-e 4 card, you can expect it to loose some performance running it on this cable.

Thought very worth while sharing my experience here as I'm certain many will be looking for the same solution.First up, the setup - 3080 connecting to X570 Unify board - GPU mounted vertically in a Thermaltake P3 curved TG case and 240Hz TN monitor - eSports setup clearly.So PCIe 4 GPU & PCIe 4 mobo.My previous Thermaltake cable worked perfectly with my previous 2080Ti (PCIe3 GPU) - same setup.Had issues with the Thermaltake cable (poor performance, no image, low, varying FPS - so researched... PCIe cable issue seemed most likely - I did also try switching to PCIe3 on the port in BIOS, no avail - so found this, watched their own videos, read reviews (MANY reviews - Reddit and elsewhere) - looked this could be a fix.It didn't work for me unfortunately. Exact same issues - Tested using 3DMark PCIe bandwidth software (I paid for the suite, it was reduced on Steam) it just never reached the performance of PCIe4 throughput (along with occasional FPS dips etc.)So, just plugged the GPU directly into the board! Voila! Astonishing, simply astonishing, FULL PCIe4 bandwidth throughput, no drops, no glitches, just lightning fast performance - I may never mount a GPU vertically using an extender again - THIS is how it's designed to work.** Please understand, this in no way is meant in detriment to the actual quality of both this AND the Thermaltake cable, they both on the face of it do their jobs admirably, but did not fix my issue.Hope this helps someone - as I lost a lot of time researchingTake care

Update: I upgraded to a rog monitor and I cant run 100hz without a crash, at 90hz it works but if you connect another monitor it crashes fast ! I don't think it can really handle the bandwith...Thank you for making this cable ! Upgraded from a corsair one, but i tested several they don't work on PCIE 4.0 !A few months back I decided to move from a I9 9900k, Aorus master, and Rtx 2080ti to AMD and I bought a Strix 570 F mb, a Ryzen 3950x a Msi 6800xt GPU and paired them all up with 32 gb 3600 corsair.2 X M.2 Samsung pro pcie 4.0I kept getting crashes, assumed its the CPU ( and it was a bit) as was getting errors on top of errors and a unstable system. ( the CPU had a few issues, tested on a friends system and it kept crashing, unstable at stock speed and Ram stock ! .. )Upgraded to 5950x and system seemed better, but sometimes refused to boot (Cpu errors and white light).Bought a crosshair hero Viii (used) , 1 boot achieved after 5 resets and 2 power offs, worst after long period being off ! Assumed its a faulty MB as the errors were different.Changed to x570 Aorus master, that one flat out refused to boot, tried different ram, same thing.Changed to another Crosshair Hero Viii, this one worked much better but still hard to get it started, eventually I tried the pcie on gen 3 and worked but with a lot of whea errors. (occt test)Was at the point where I thought it must be another bad CPU, honestly weeks of stress, I have build a lot of systems in my life and I do have a bit of I.T. knowledge..Stuck the new pcie riser cable today and so far very stable and no errors, just make sure you push it in well as I didn't the first time.The cable is well built but the red accent ruins the look, PLEASE MAKE IT BLACK !Lets see how it works and ill update !

Bought this to replace a Corsair Gen 3.0 riser which wasn't fully 4.0 compatible and it does the job really well, but it has a serious design flaw.The PCB which the PCI-E slot is mounted on is so narrow, it flexes way too mjuch when a heavy GPU is installed (I have a MSI RTX 3080 Suprim X with 3 fans).The 1st image shows how much this thing bends when installed.If you move your PC around frequently (ie for LANs etc) I'd seriously be worried about it snapping.I designed and 3d printed a support plate (2nd & 3rd image) to solve the issue.Amazon probably wont allow me to link to to it directly but search Thingiverse for "LINKUP Ultra PCIE 4.0 Gen4 Riser Cable Support" by Slegnor.I am much happer with it now I know it's not bending.In relation to the card doing its job, runs my card at gen 4.0 speeds perfectly and the cable design is good, just that damn PCB letting it down and considering the current price (£89.96 for the 30cm verison), its shocking.

I have a Auros Elite x570 motherboard, a Ryzen 5900x CPU and a Aorus RTX 3080 Xtreme WB. I bought this Riser cable when I realised the Phanteks Vertical GPU mount I bought only comes with a PCI-E 3.0 Riser Cable. Anyway, I fitted everything correctly, did a stress test and everything seemed to be working fine. Until I decided to stream as I was playing Warzone... Streamlabs OBS would just freeze and cut out my stream. At first, I thought it was Streamlabs OBS that was the issue but then I closed OBS and restarted my PC to try and troubleshoot the problem. Without Streamlabs OBS running, I decided to play Warzone again and realised that the average frames I would usually get has dropped significantly. So I figured, it definitely wasn't OBS and it was indeed this riser cable that was causing the issues...I have a custom liquid cooled PC so I had to go through draining my system again in order to put everything back to how it was WITHOUT the Riser Cable and the Vertical GPU mount. It took me a couple of hours to do so which was a pain. I tested my PC again streaming and gaming and everything is working perfectly again. I'm not entirely sure what the exact problem was with the cable. I can only assume that the cable does not transfer the data flawlessly from the GPU.I'm just sharing my experience so that anyone who reads this (especially those with custom liquid cooling) would stop to consider if it is in fact worth it to install a Vertical GPU mount. Knowing that there is a possibility that it might not work correctly and that you would have to spend hours to put everything back together without the mount again.I'm keeping the cable for now and will possibly ask a friend (that has a PCI-E 4.0 GPU) to do some testing on his PC to figure out what the real issue was.
