GELRHONR NGFF M.2 to PCI-E 4X 1X Riser Card,M.2 Key M 2260 2280 SSD Port to PCIE Adapter with LED Indicator SATA 15pin Power Riser for Bitcoin Miner Mining-Black

I wanted to use this as a gpu for virtual machines and I was originally hesitant because I saw no videos of it working. I caved in and bought it anyway, turns out your pc needs to support it, which mine did! I now have a working gt 1030 to play my incompatible light windows games on linux! It's the cheapest alternative if you're not looking for maximum performance!

Provides a stable PCIe 4.0 x4 connection to an RTX 3070, which I'm using as a secondary GPU for Blender. Connection remains stable after 10 minutes of rendering. Installation was no different than installing any M.2 SSD—extremely easy—and it worked with no troubleshooting. The included screwdriver wasn't super useful to me, but it's cute. SATA power adapter is extremely stiff and difficult to connect to PSU cable, but works as it should. Make sure your motherboard chipset's heatsink isn't in the way! x16 devices are too long to clear most modern chipset heatsinks. Devices should still work if the heatsink is low-profile, but I recommend an alternative means to secure x16 devices. Unless your motherboard has an interesting layout, you cannot use your case's expansion mounting brackets.

Ordered three, one did not work. I was testing a Mellanox Connectx-4 LX PCIE card in the NVME slot of multiple different AMD motherboards. Has a bright green LED which I don't like. On the one unit that failed the green power indicator light was still on.

Good Product, Good Value, Works Well.

Works great for an E-GPU i crammed into a laptops NVME slot runs at PCIE 3 x4 speed as promised
