LINKUP - Ultra PCIe 4.0 X16 Riser Cable [RTX4090 RX6950XT x570 B550 Z690 Tested] Shielded High-Speed Vertical Mount Gaming PCI Express Gen4┃Straight Socket (15cm / 5.9") Gen 3.0 TT Compatible┃White

Works great so far, haven't had any issues or real difficulties. Mainly I wanted it to free up a PCIe x16 slot covered by the GPU for use with a low profile HBA, which I was able to do with room to spare. The cable's length turned out to be perfect for my situation, but ymmv. My Fractal Define 7 has a space for vertical mounts, but there's still about a centimeter gap between the bottom of the riser cable and the floor of the main compartment. While the screws attaching the card to the rear of the case kept things mostly secure, for a little extra stability I cut a piece of foam, wrapped it in antistatic for good luck, and shoved it right on in there - keeps excess jiggles to a minimum.

I've been running 4 of these reliably with RTX 3090s for several months. Pay attention to the female pcie slot's cable orientation and be sure it is correct for how you intent to mount the device.

I've tried SEVERAL GPU extension cables, including Corsair's own, and the 15cm version of this extension cable is the only one that properly fits the Corsair 7000D's rotated PCIE bracket for mounting the GPU in the middle of the case.Tested with the Corsair 7000D and RTX 5080 FE and works perfectly!The cable is almost not short enough but just makes the length perfectly without strain once you flex the ends of the cable for that clean look we're all going for. Zero concerns for cable length, and thankfully, not too long like most every other cable (or too short like a few).The only issue was the riser screws from the case was just barely a bit short, so I had to apply pressure from underneath where it screws in, to ensure it seated fully. However I've also had the same issue with even the standard cable, so I suspect it's moreso an issue with the case.Definitely the cable you want for that case. Thrilled to complete my upgrades finally!

It does work as PCIe 4.0. Tested with RTX 4060Ti.

First of all mounting this thing is kind of a pain. The slots for the adjustment on the 90º bottom portion aren't preset for anything in particular so you kind of have to guess and check as you mount it and hope the card fits, if it doesn't then you have to remove the card and adjust (no way to screw it in when a large card is on it).The instructions say you're also free to drill if you want to because the board on the bottom is just a dummy, which is nice but there is no pre done measurements / specific branding tie in to make it easy. Good for options, bad for quick use. The standard motherboard standoffs and screws used to mount this in the Corsair 5000X also are slightly larger than the slots, so once the screw is in it's kind of stuck until you pop it out.Mine also arrived with the rear secure tab for the PCIe click in portion broken off and missing. It still works, and luckily this is a very large and heavy desktop so I'm not overly concerned, but it is always a little concerning getting something broken already (even if it's just a plastic security piece).That all aside, it went in fairly well, the cord is manageable, and the card seated and booted up. No major reduction in power for the 3080 RTX I've seen, benchmarks seemed normal.Do note that if you have a chonker of a card (mine is a 3080 RTX FTW3 Ultra from EVGA) you may see a slight bit of sag to the rear even after everything is fully secure. Not nearly as bad as horizontal mounting, but just be aware. Also if mounting a fat card in the Corsair 5000D/5000X (and likely moreso in the 4000 series) it will be VERY close to the glass. If you have good airflow this shouldn't be an issue, and GPU temps themselves are pretty solid for me, but if you have your tower pressed up against something or stuffed under a desk you may see more residual heat.That all being said, I specifically moved this because my RAM (4 DIMM of 16GB Corsair RGB 3200MHz RAM) was running too warm right over the GPU. This dropped my RAM temps at idle about 10 degrees Celsius (no joke) and about 8 while doing RAM intensive items. It also helped lower my PCH temp issue on the ASUS ROG Strix Z690-A motherboard because there was a heat zone trapped behind the card near the M.2 drives, lowering that 4-5º as well. No increase to CPU temp by moving it (1-2º drop at idle) with a top mount H150i AIO in 6 fan Push/Pull setup. Basically everything I wanted to help cool I got (and more than expected) at little to no gain in GPU temps.As for the look compared to horizontal mount... I'm getting used to it. It's not bad but it does look weird. All the space you would "gain" isn't really a gain because of the cable, and working on plugging things in on the bottom half of the board is going to be tighter now. With that said it does help hide out cables you have coming out from your PSU shroud or around the bottom of the motherboard.TLDR: Serves it's purpose, works decently, kind of a pain to mount and get a large card mounted but doable, questionable QA out of the factory with a broken plastic part that doesn't impact functionality.

Works great
