This cable strategically extends the existing PCI Express x16 slot on a motherboard. With backwards compatibility to previous PCIe generations and most Kolink cases, this cable effortlessly connects your graphics card and motherboard with transfer speeds of up to 32 GT/s.

It may also be necessary or useful to place PCI Express expansion cards in unusual locations for modding projects or in cases that deviate from the standard ATX standard. The outer material is made of TPE and has flexible segments that facilitate gentle bending. A particular advantage of a riser cable is the ability to position graphics cards vertically, for example, and thus mount them parallel to the mainboard. This allows the card's cooler to be shown to its full advantage.
