Guys I'm thinking about placing my graphics card vertically.

I have TT riser cable PCIE 3.0 but I dunno I have bad experience with cables,so I wonder can cable damage the components?

 

Please do not take offence for my apparent confusion or rudeness,it's not intent me to be like that,it's just my BPD,be nice to me,and I'll return twice better,be rude and usually I get easly pissed of...I'll try to help anyone here,as long as it's something I dealt with,and even if you think I'm rude or not polite,forgive me,  it's not me it's my BPD.

Thanks for understanding.

I want to elaborate on this. No component is 100% infallible. There is a chance that there might be something wrong with it but the odds are great that there isn't. So to agree with mahyar, you 99.9% should not have any issues if you install it correctly, but  there is always that .1% chance that something will go wrong. I recently bought 2 items from Newegg, A Ryzen 3600 and a ASRock B450M Pro4, both of which had to sent back due to issues. The Ryzen had bent and missing pins and the MB was a dead board. So you see there is the chance that something maybe wrong but unlikely.

Well cable is still near me,and I haven't had much time lately to install it.

Some guys on amazon scared me texting that riser cable for some reason unknown to me damaged the MoBo or GPU.

Well I'm into IT like for 25 years,and I don't remember any cable damaging my components but who knows.

I'm willing to try it today after I hope good sleep now,since I hope this is really good cable (TT-Gaming Riser Cable) and hope that chance to mess up something is pretty low.

After all I still have second PCI-E slot,right?

I really wish so bad that RGB on card to see it,and fans spinning it's so much nicer to see card vertically,and this case is designed that way.

So please guys release me of my huge anxiety and overthinking always.

Is it okay to install 3.0 riser cable with MoBo that is pci-e 4.0 compatible?

Yes, it will be at least good for PCIe 3.0, one day when you get a PCIe-4.0 device you might have to run it at 3.0 for compatibility. 

Recent builds:  Meshify C (Zero Tolerance!) & View 37 (Breathable Quad 2080Ti + 2990WX)

Best documented PC coolants

Older Builds

Spoiler

Full-custom loop builds: Meshify C (Full custom loop SLI), Ncase M1(8700K + 1080Ti Full custom loop)  Obsidian 900D (1950X + Quad 1080Ti) & Fractal Define C (1080 in SLI)

Air-cooled builds Air 740D (1920X + Quad 980Ti) & Fractal Define C (Version Air!)

Unless it's a poorly constructed PCIe riser, it should give you 4.0 speeds.
