So I recently installed a riser cable (Fractal Design FD-A-FLX2-002 Flex 2 Pcie 4 Riser) and now when I switch my pc on my screen just stays black, however when I plug an additional screen directly in to the motherboard HDMI port the additional screen comes on and then the screen plugged in to the GPU also switches on. Then I can unplug the screen from the motherboard and all is normal. When I then restart my pc with just the screen connected to the GPU that is in the riser cable same problem until I plug the additional screen in to the motherboard. I am no expert in BIOS settings so i would like to know if anyone has a sollution to this problem? Thank you!

The Hyte Y60 case has 7 half-height expansion slots running by the motherboard, and they include a PCIe riser that lets you mount things like a GPU vertically on 3 full-height expansion slots. I'm trying to mount my RTX 4090 GPU vertically, and find a way to install an Elgato Camlink Pro in the system. The issue being that the Camlink Pro is a full height card that you can't turn into a half-height one, as the HDMI inputs run along the full height of the card. Is there some setup I could do with another riser or the like to get the Camlink Pro to fit in the Hyte Y60 or am I SOL? -
Hi, I have a problem with GPU Rx 580 2048sp 8GB. I have tried with many motherboards but still fail. However, recently I have tried it with a riser, and it finally works. So I reversed my action by putting it directly in motherboards, and It is still not working. Only Riser can revise my Rx 580, regardless of the boards. Please help me explain this situation. PS: These are the boards: Huanan Zhi X79, Asrock B250 Fatal1ty Gaming, MSI Z390 Gaming

Hello LMG, I was trying to insert my Zotac 1650 OC into my PC using a riser cable and I found that one of the "arms" had fallen off. I lift it up to see what had happens and the entire thing was disconnected from the female PCI insert. Before you assume anything, no, I did not pull a @RoxBox and yank it out, and it looked like they weren't even properly connected in the first place. Is it salvageable, and if not, what are other *CHEAP* alternatives? Thanks in advance!

Have any of you seen an m.2 to pcie adapter that can accommodate a double sided heatsink? The m.2 ports on my motherboard are 8mm from the pcb to the top of the m.2 connector. They have plenty of clearance between the motherboard and ssd, which allows me to use a double sided heatsink. I believe they are either 6.7H or 8.5H as seen in this photo: I also own several m.2 to pcie adapters, but all of them use a much shorter m.2 connector. Most of them are 2.5mm tall. I have one that is 4mm tall, but is is for sata, not nvme. Background info: I recently purchased a Sabrent ssd (SB-RKT4P-2TB) and installed it into port M2_3 of my MSI EK Carbon X570S motherboard using the stock (single sided) heatsink. The drive would crash frequently (chkdsk would report it as RAW) but upon reboot, it usually reappeared just fine. (GPT partitions did not report any errors, Sabrent Rocket app tests would all pass). I purchased the Sabrent double sided heatsink (SB-HTSS) and the drive has been rock solid ever since. I really like that heatsink. I track the temperatures in Aquasuite, and that heatsink does a fantastic job keeping the temperatures stable and cool (43C). I would like to move this 2TB ssd to the PCI_E4 port of my motherboard so I can take full advantage of the 4.0 speeds. The chipset is 3.0 speeds, and the M2_1 port is already occupied with another 4.0 speed SSD. I bought the Sabrent m.2-PCIe adapter, but I was highly disappointed in it. What I would love to find is an adapter that can accommodate the Sabrent double sided heatsink, have you any of you run across an adapter that used one of these taller m.2 connectors?

Hi All I had previously planned a custom build using aluminium extrusions but life got in the way.. I was looking at picking this up again/going for the Lian Li DK-05f but that's still a huge amount for features I don't care about/what I'm getting. I'm in China and found this alternative, it's not as nice but it's also 1/6th the price (1600mm version): https://item.jd.com/10069540491835.html#crumb-wrap Overall it'll do the job I need, but there's one issue, my GPU. The block is enormous, I made the rookie mistake of not checking the dimensions before buying and I can no longer fit the side panel on my O11DXL. I'm fairly certain that it won't fit here (I'll check) so there are 2 options using a PCIE riser. If there's a product that will allow me to put this over the MOBO (maybe using the MOBO standoffs?) this would mean minor alterations to the desk. Cut away the rear left fan mounts (keeping the screw holes) and get someone to fab a bracket to fit there that will hold a PCIE riser Option 1 would be preferable as there's be less cost due to less fab work. Does anyone know of a product that would work here? Many thanks in advance! -
I've got a NAS I built three years ago back when I was still young and dumb. It has a motherboard with just a single PCIEe slot. I use the NAS for media storage and run a Plex Media Server off of it. The OS is TrueNAS Core and I have been loving the experience. So much so that I also upgraded all of my networking to 10gig. I added a 10gig PCIE card to the NAS and off i was. Now that the networking has improved I tend to store higher quality media on the server. Since then, my Plex experience has been rough because my poor Intel Core i5 can't handle all the transcoding. So I want to add a GPU of some sorts. Still on the fence which GPU to get because transcoding is kind of in flux with the AV1 revolution. I'm not looking to buy a new card though, so RX7000 and RTX4000 are out of the question. Any budget suggestions are welcome My real issue is that I obviously only have one PCIe slot. I think it's PCIe gen 3 even. Does anyone know a way to convert the single slot to dual slots? I was thinking of maybe some kind of riser but I can't really find what I'm looking for. Thanks! -
Here is the thing...I upgraded my PC several months ago. Mainly added water-cooling kit for my Gigabyte 3090 Turbo (it's too noisy). Then I found it is (physically) not compatible with my motherboard, ROG Z690-I WIFI. So I bought a PCI-E riser for my GPU. After that, the nightmare comes, my PC will crash in heavy load such as gaming. It will directly power off sometimes (sudden black screen, all RGB lights off) and in other cases it will just freeze (screen content paused, RGB light effects paused and no response to mouce and keyboard actions). I can't guarantee it will happen everytime, but it happens frequently. When I tried to troubleshoot, I found that there were tons of WHEA code 17 Errors in my system logs as shown in the pic. The details are same: A corrected hardware error has occurred. Component: PCI Express Root Port Error Source: Advanced Error Reporting (PCI Express) Primary Bus:Device:Function: 0x0:0x6:0x0 Secondary Bus:Device:Function: 0x0:0x0:0x0 Primary Device Name:PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_464D&SUBSYS_86941043&REV_02 Secondary Device Name: Then I tried to manually set my PCI-E Speed to "Gen 3" in my BIOS, the errors were all gone. And I haven't encountered crashs anymore. I think it could be this PCI-E riser's problem, product page: https://www.amazon.com/ASUS-ROG-Flexible-Extender-Extension/dp/B082G52H1L. Note: I bought this riser on Taobao and the seller said there are two versions, one for PCI-E Gen3 and one for Gen4, I chose Gen4 version. When I search this riser for this link I didn't get any official info for Gen4 version. All of the information indicates that it's a Gen3 riser. Could this be the problem? Did ROG have this product, maybe not for retail? I found a bro who had the same issue, links: https://rog-forum.asus.com/t5/previous-forum/rog-strix-z690a-gaming-wifi-whea-17-errors/m-p/879502 If anyone need more information, please let me know. My Specs: - OS: Windows 11 Enterprise 22H2 22621.1702 - CPU: Intel i9-12900K - Motherboard: ROG Z690-I WIFI - GPU: (Modified) Gigabyte 3090 turbo, vBIOS untouched. - Memory: Kingston FURY 32GB(16G×2) DDR5 5200 Beast - PSU: Seasonic Focus GX1000 Thanks from China

Hello, I recently got a RTX 4070 and while it works fine in the PCI slot it won't doesn't work when I use my riser cable. I previously had a Ghost gen3 riser and due to the issue bought their gen4 cable hoping it would fix the issue. While both riser cables work with my old card (RTX 2070S) neither works with the 4070. I've updated my bios to the latest version and changed the riser settings in the BIOS but so far nothing has worked. Any ideas? (My Motherboard is a Asrock Z690M-ITX/ax)

I am considering purchasing an ASUS PCE-AC88 wifi card to connect to my motherboard (ASRock B450m Pro4 Micro ATX) in my PC. However, I believe the available PCIe1 slot on my motherboard is too close to my graphics card for this wifi card to fit, since my motherboard is so small. Does anyone have a recommendation for a high quality PCIe riser cable that is compatible to connect my motherboard to this wifi card without slowing down my internet connection? If the wifi card is on a cable, I believe I can secure it to an case opening underneath the gpu. It won't look pretty but it should offer better performance than my USB dongle.

GPU running ~10°C hotter on pcie riser vs on motherboard. I'm running 3 GTX 1080s, 2 on mobo and the 3rd on a powered riser. Anyone know what's going?

Hello everyone, I was looking for a GPU riser cable to mount my GPU (ASUS TUF RTX 3080) vertically in the be quiet! Silent Base 802. ATM I don't have a Gen 4 capable mobo, since I'm currently using a i7-10700K on an ASUS ROG Z490-H, but I want to be futureproof, and I found this list (I'm from Italy so it's from amazon it): https://www.amazon.it/dp/B09PH9D3J3/ https://www.amazon.it/dp/B09HBHN4QM/ https://www.amazon.it/dp/B099ZWM5KK/ https://www.amazon.it/dp/B09DVQTMKK/ https://www.amazon.it/dp/B08TQTTJHQ/ Since it's ranging from 34€ to 97€, I have no clue what's the right cost for this type of thing. I know that Thermal Grizzly does awesome thermal paste, and Lian Li awesome case, but the risers are good? Thank you everyone who spares some time for me

Hello peeps how is everyone doing? I had a phantek vertical GPU mount and just learned about PCIe 3.0 and 4.0. My Vega 56 was working very well when I was using the riser and now that I upgraded to a MSI 3080 LHR, im getting 60 fps at 100% usage on starcraft 2/battlefield 1. I tried to go into the bios to change the PCIe to 3.0 but i cant seem to find the setting although I'm following the steps correctly (based on YouTube and forums). Now for my issue I cant seem to find anything litterally anything online so if anyone can give me any tip to change PCIe from 4.0 to 3.0.

Quick background I am making a desk PC and I am almost done just need to get the GPU (how much fun that's gonna be) and the gen 4 cable, but I am in a bit of a kerfuffle as I can't decide as to which one I should go with. I am thinking of either the Thermaltake 4.0 Riser or the 4.0 riser from Louqe, any actual performance difference between the two?

Hello, is it possible to drill a hole into the cable base? I just got the asus rog STRIX riser cable and the screw hole alignment is different to my case. I have the Corsair 7000x, I tried the corsair riser cable but that was just too long (300mm) while the asus is perfect in size (240mm).

Hey guys! I'm having issues with my secondary GPU. These are my specs: MOBO: ASRock A320M-HD (updated to 6.20) CPU: AMD Ryzen 1600 AF RAM: HyperX 16gb 2666mhz (single) GPU: Palit RTX 3060 Storage: 1 500gb HD, 1 120gb SSD, 1 240gb SSD. I'm trying to do a little bit of mining with the small rig I have. I got a GTX 1660 Super to use the maximum capability of mining my MOBO can offer. The issue is that no matter what I try, I can't get my Windows to recognize the 1660. The 3060 is the primary on a PCIe x16 gen3 and the 1660 is on the riser (x16 to x1 through usb 3.0) conected to a PCIe x1 gen2. It doens't show up on device manager even after showing hidden devices. I updated my bios and messed around in the configurations of bandwitch and speeds and nothing seems to change. PS.: The 1660 worked fine as the primary on the x16 and the riser was working previously. PS².: I'm aware that my system is not optimal for gaming, as it lacks a more powerful processor to avoid bottleneck and a second RAM stick for better performance. At this moment this build is perfect for me and will be upgraded in the near future. Thanks a lot in advance!

i broke of three risers that hold on to the graphics card(orange boxes) while unscrewing them i wanted to know if there is somekind of super glue i could use that is strong enough to hold them in place(i would prefer this solution since i dont have access to soldering iron) or would i have to solder them back on? PS.the actual unbroken riser is in the red box

Just bought a PCIe 3.0 riser cable for a vertical GPU mount, and I don't know which PC it goes in bc I have three separate projects going on right now and all three have cases with vertical GPU mounts. All of the motherboards are PCIe 3.0 but two of the GPUs are RX 5000 series card with PCIe 4.0 support. However a couple days ago I heard somebody either here on on yt had an issue with their RTX 3000 GPU that was fixed by going from a PCIe 3.0 riser cable to PCIe 4.0 riser cable. So I was wondering if there is an actual difference in the cable because I don't see why there would be. -
I noticed in Linus' small form factor build video from yesterday that he purposefully routed the AC power cable away from the GPU riser cable. I'm assuming that that would have something to do with electrical noise/interference messing with the data going through the riser. My build is set up such that atm my riser cable is actually touching the PSU. Does this do anything to harm my system? Furthermore, when I upgrade to a 3080 with 3x 8 pin power cables, the only logical (and visually pleasing) way to run those cables will be alongside the riser. Will that cause an issue? Thanks.

Hello Everyone, I have Mini ITX Build PC and of course only have one slot PCIe. I need more PCIe slot for temporary to run FireWire Card. Can I use riser and then plug the USB to the USB port on behind the motherboard ? or there's another option for it. I want to digitize my old mini DV clip and I need a firewire chipset since the late motherboard doesn't have it, so I need the firewire card installed but I don't have more slots.

My riser came in today and there's a little scratch on the pin is it bad or there's should be no problems to my motherboard or gpu

Hey all! Kinda new around here. Does anyone know of any right angled pcie X16 riser cables. Not bent at the connector, but in the wire itself? Got a tricky setup I'm trying to work out. Thanks!

So, I understand what bifurcation is but I'm new to making it physically work. I've got an X399 Phantom Gaming 6 board, there are 3 physical X16 slots that can be set to either x16 or x4x4x4. I've got a potential 64 lanes, and I'm using maybe 36, I don't think I'll 'cap' that out if I try. However in my voyage across google I've learned that while you can technically just use a 4-way riser/splitter performance will be poor unless the riser/splitter supports bifurcation via some extra component that remained nebulous the entire time I was researching the process. Have any of you done this? At this point I'm just trying to find a riser/splitter that does it, Or information that will help me determine if said riser/splitter is viable purchase.

So I dun goofed today. I run an ITX build in a Thermaltake Core V1. I sold my Zotac GTX 970 and then hastily bought a Palit GTX 980 Jetstream. This upgrade cost me no money, fyi. I sold my 970 for the price of the 980. It was a lucky coincidence. OBVIOUSLY this GPU doesn't fit my case and I'm an idiot (inb4 you're an idiot, check the clearance first). So my ghetto solution is to use a riser and have the card sit fans-down outside of the case. I did a brief search and it seems as long as the fans of the GPU have air, it shouldn't impact performance, so i will have the card raised from the table my PC sits on without obstructing the fans. This is a temporary measure. As stupid as this sounds, does it sound do-able / realistic for now?
