Okinos, PCI-E 4.0 Riser Cable, Compatible with RTX4090, RTX4080, RX7900XTX, PCIe 4.0 x16 High Speed Flexible Extender Card Extension Port 90 Degree Adapter, 200mm Black

I built a gaming computer with the ASUS TUF Gaming GT-502 case. This case allows for vertical mounting of my RTX 4090 GPU. This GPU interface cable works great in my system. Some tips about using the cable, the cable is quite stiff and the cable needs to be in an “S” shape to work I.e., one end plugs into the PCIe slot on the motherboard and the other right angle female PCIe connector for the GPU. So what I did was to “train” the cable to be that “S” shape by folding the cable in “S” shape and put it into a 4” diameter round jar for a few days. After a few days the cable took on that “S” shape and it would not work itself loose from the motherboard or GPU.

One of the budget options but riser cables don't need to be $60. It works well. Despite having to remove my GPU several times since the build to upgrade my WiFi NIC and to reroute power cables etc. Kinda stiff but be gentle and take your time and you can curve it to your needs. Install was quick, it worked well with my mobo, case, and GPU. Takes up a bit of room so if you have other PCI cards like me, it can cause headaches but again, be gentle and route it and hold it for it to kinda retain the shape and it'll work. Only gen 4 PCI-E, but that's good enough for me. Not gen 5 compatible so if your chasing those 1% lows, don't go vertically mounting the GPU.

1st I ordered the 200mm cable, but I found to my surprise that the cable is more sturdier than I thought, which I really liked. But for that reason, it might interfere with the installation if the GC is too close to the motherboard.I ordered the 150mm version and that fitted perfectly.Here it depeds on the build. The case, and the dimensions on how far the graphics card is from the mother board.The pictures on the description give a good match on selecting the right lenght. I did not pay good attention to that or did not give it enough veracity, but after my experience they make sense.There had not been any issues with the connection so far. It worked flawlessly the 1st time. Makklong sure both retainers on the motherboard and the riser cable are engaged.The picture of my computer is a TUF GC502.

very good riser cable works perfectly for 2080 super

Tested on my 3060 12gb version on pcie gen 4 motherboard. I used 3D Mark, F1 22 Benchmark, Monster Hunter Wilds Benchmark, and Cinebench. I ran all the benchmarks mentioned and recorded and average then redid the benchmarks with the riser cable. Before and after results were very close and within a margin of error. No stuttering, visual issues, thermal issues, or clock speeds were affected. Thermals are more dependent on your case so make sure you have plenty of space. Something to make sure of before buying like in the picture attached, you can see I had to swap out my braided gpu cable for the stock psu one because it would not bend well and get stuck between my large air cooler.
