M.2 Riser Cable

I have a Lenovo desktop model m91p with an Intel i5 processor and a graphics card from EVGA Nvidia 750 GT. The graphics card occupied one slot but the heat sink and fan extended over the PCI-e 1x slot so that I could not use the slot. The other PCI slots were available but most PCI cards do not work well with Windows 10. I am running Windows 10 Pro 64 bit. So, I looked at replacing my graphics card with one that only took up space for 1 slot. But, my graphics card was working fine. I had 2 GB of GDDR5. Something equivalent or better cost $90. So, I looked for a solution to extend the PCI-e slot. I looked at Ribbons but there design blocked the flow of air across the heat sink if I bent them 90 degrees. The GLOTRENDS design made more sense because the card that inserted into the slot was flush with the existing slot and did not interfere with the graphics card overhead. Also the cable extended back toward the rear and did not block any other slots. I purchased a Rosewill 4-port external USB 3.0 card and unscrewed the card from the bracket and flipped it upside down and reattached it to the bracket using standoffs so that I could attach it to the backend. It worked. I was able to attach the other end of the GLOTRENDS cable to the top and it fit snugly into the bracket holder. So, I was able to reuse the PCI-e slot. If I had tried to use the ribbon design, I would not have been able to successfully attach the Rosewill to the bracket holder. But, the true test was to run a benchmark on the new card. Above are the results without the power attached to the card. I need an extension for my MOLEX to finish the installation. But, everything is working fine without it. I am getting very good performance without the power attachment. I believe GLOTRENDS has the best design for extending the PCI-e slot for graphics cards that cover the slot.

Here's my combo solution review for the SUPEERPLUS PCI-E 1X to Half/Full Mini PCI-E Adapter and GLOTRENDS 1X to 1X PCI-E Extension Cable UEX101: My goal was to add a DIY eGPU to a Dell Optiplex 7010 USFF (ultra small form factor) PC. The project also included other parts including a 16X/1X USB mining riser, and server power supply with a 12volt mining breakout board. Only 1X PCIE was needed as using for GPU password recovery as part of cybersecurity training and work. My son upgraded GPUs in his gaming rig, leaving me with a GTX1060 6GB for my project. Originally my plan was to use the mPCIE in a Dell laptop (E7440), but that went bust when the laptop would NOT recognize the card. It was the WLAN/WiFi slot, and there must be a blacklist/restriction on cards in that slot even though I was hoping there was not. So I went a different route. The Dell USFF was on hand from a previous project, and I don't have the want, or deskspace, for a mini/tower PC. Plus this could be an easily mobile solution with the size of the devices. Space in the USFF is TIGHT. I spent a lot of time researching, comparing, and looking closely at product pics and videos online until I was more certain the parts would fit. I decided to go with a USB-based solution rather than ribbon-cable mPCIE 1X extender. I ended up not using the PCIE 1X slot card that ships with the extender, rather I just extended the USB cable all the way out of the chassis, via an open external WiFi antenna slot already cut into the case, then extended using an Amazon Basics USB 3.0 extension cable directly to my 16X riser. The USB cable is much more sturdy, and I would be concerned with a thin ribbon doing the same thing. That, and I really don't think there would be any space for a 1X slot extended via ribbon elsewhere inside the case, without leaving out a RAM DIMM to gain space. These items worked perfectly!! I don't think that any other solution could have worked as well. The power connector on the mPCIE, with cable connected, is the highest point, and am sure is being pressed by the seated drive cage. The right-angle USB was the only way to get a solution like this to fit, and the cable reaches inside and out of the case to where I could anchor the USB cable onto the case padlock loop on the back. Yes it did take some packing to get all the cables in. Actually 3 attempts before I could get the cage seated and top panel back on. But it all fits! And works!!

Got this to set up my pcie wifi card in a Thermaltake S100 TG mid-tower case in vertical riser mode to mount along side my vertical video card. The expansion slot mounts in this case have the option to be rearranged vertically. I didn't want to waste my perfectly working wifi card and get a USB wifi adapter. This extender is both a great work-around and cost efficient way to keep my setup. Only problem I have with it is that the USB cord is probably twice the length I needed. So it had to be snaked and coiled around a bit through various cables and jumpers on the motherboard and the vertical mount. It is a very thick quality cord to manipulate and it is not pretty, but since the wifi card is mounted behind the video card (with it's own rather lengthy pcie 16x riser cable), you just don't notice the slight mess. Overall it works out fine. No problems with functionality. Again, for my application, it's just a bit too long. If you have a full-tower or need to snake a pcie 1x expansion around a mini-itx setup, this should do the trick. I may optionally get a shorter cable in the future.

Works really well, I have a pcie usb hub (7 usb ports) but running 2 large gpus blocks all of the slots. This was able to hide under a gpu and route it up and around to another open slot. Works well!

I wasn't sure if this was going to work with my HTC vive wireless kit, but it did! I have a 20 foot USB 3.0 extension cable running to it. I tested this out on beat saber with no problems. You will need to restart your computer when you plug it in, if your computer is already on. Connection to motherboard goes in upside down which I thought was weird, but it works and that's all I needed it to do.

This device looks perfectly fine. I love the design, cable length, rubber foam under the connector, etc., however, it doesn't work. The computer won't start when the adapter is present. I tried reinstalling it, unplugging and re-plugging the cable several times to no avail. Unfortunately, I don't have another PC to test it with, but I have a different adapter that uses the same port, and it works fine, so this is definitely this adapter. Sadly, I'm going to have to return it. I really wanted it to work because I need it for a project that I'm working on, but it is what it is.

After the GPU card blocked the last open PCIE-x1 slot I had on my motherboard, I was searching for a solution and found this device. I was skeptical as always buying something so cheap and not branded. But being out of options and a choice of using this, or removing 2 HDD out of the system, I decided to give it a try. I took a HDD performance measurement from the PCI-e Sata Interface card on the socket directly, and then after I had extended the card elsewhere using this. And as you can see the performance was exactly the same in both reading and writing to the SATA6 7200rpm disk. So far so good, no noticeable heat is developing, and it clears my Powercolor dual width GPU card heat sink with about 2mm to spare as well. Hoping it will last a long time.

Thank you! I was able to squeeze this into a small form factor computer and add a full size rtx6600xt. Works great!

lo compre para intentar convertir mi tarjeta de sonido pciexpress en tarjeta de sonido usb .. si conectas el adaptador de pciexpress al usb del ordenador no se entera de que hay conectada una tarjeta .. has de conectar el minipciepress al pciexpress que se comunica por el cable Usb ..

Doesnt work

Estaba buscando como acomodar una tarjeta WiFi PCIe 3.0 X1 en mi PC, ya que estorbaba la tarjeta gráfica y este kit es la solución perfecta.

他社のと異なり補助電源（１２V）を行えますので、殆どのPCIEXPRESS×１、４に対応できます。 その分若干高めですが、１２V供給できないものだと苦労すると思いますが、これならSATA電源コネクタに対応してますので、余裕でクリアできます。
