Hi guys I'm here to ask if somebody knows what riser card/cable I can get to move my 2nd gtx 770 one slot lower: my motherboard is the maximus VI Gene and my 2 cards are 2x gtx 770's but because of the layout they're sufficating eachother, the 350d got the 5th sloth i need but I need somekind of riser card that goes down 1 slot or cable so something like this but not 2x so that i can actually put it in the slot. 

 

Greetings Tom

There are nice riser cards and flexible ribbon ones, though you will need some extra space on the bottom of your card for the connector and that will definitely interfere with the the expansion slots on your motherboard if you know what I mean. You just wont be ably to install the card correctly into the case, because the PCIe riser connector on the bottom of your GPU will be touching the motherboard and and won't be able to screw into the chassis properly.
