I'm working on Gaming PC with custom wall case and i want to have exposed GPUs with waterblock on it. 

And i want to make sure that it won't bottleneck GPU or possible short it after some time.. (GPUs will be watercooler /w bios update)

Thanks for info,

These are primarily for miners. If you use this you will be limited to PCIe gen 1 speeds which will cripple your GPU for gaming. Mining doesn't need gen 3 bandwidth which is why miners use these to connect several cards.

Yes that will bottleneck it.

You need something like this:

all will bottleneck it

x1 to x16 means it still runs at x1 speeds

[KostWarCZE]

So PCI-E x16 "expander" is the only solution or is there something what could work better for this kind of case?
