Right angle pcie riser

[Bradster2500]

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!

I'm trying to visualize what you mean, but I'm not sure I quite get it. A traditional 90 degree PCIe connector has a PCB coming out at 90 degrees of the PCIe slot itself, what would you prefer?

Can't say I've ever seen a cable explicitly bent out of the factory for sale. 

I can say I've bent the thermaltake riser by 90 degrees and it works fine, so depending on how tight of a bend you need, that could work. That's important info, though. 

Other risers like the one used by NZXT in the H1 are "bent" out of the box, so cables like that might be better suited for such things. I know SFFLAB used to sell a riser like that, but they are revamping their site so not sure where to find it without searching around for it.

A flexible ribbon-cable style PCIe extender should do. It can be bent into all shapes.

Thanks for the replies. I'm looking for a setup like this, and as low profile as possible (running behind the motherboard)

I'd imagine it would need to be fully shielded to bend like that without causing crosstalk?

 

Also probably not going to work for PCIe 4.0 as its apparently hard enough designing a motherboard to handle that just to the PCIe slots themselves.
