I’ve just ordered a new keyboard with a 1000hz polling rate. It comes with a usb-c cable and I don’t have that capability with my current setup. I was looking at getting a pci express card this one, rather than buying a new motherboard which also means I will need a new cpu so that is not an option for me currently. 
 

Will the pci-e card be sufficient for the polling rate of my keyboard, or will the pci-e extension bottleneck the data transfer?

any usbc to a cable can do that. no need for an expensive pcie card. 

I thought about this but those kind of adaptor cables I have always found to be quite hit and miss with how reliable they are. Any suggestions?

i mean as long as you get a high quality cable, should work. dont get a cheap one. (i estimate a good one to be around 10-15usd)
