Perfect Your Build with True 4.0 Performance
Easy troubleshooting steps to resolve issues:
Step 1: Update BIOS on both Motherboard and GPU
Update to the newest firmware / BIOS / software for the motherboard and GPU. The newest update can be obtained from the manufacturer's website.
Step 2: Set BIOS to optimal default
Overclocking is the main reason for the system to become unstable in Gen 4 setting. Reset BIOS to optimal default may resolve the issue and allow the system to run under Gen 4 without issue.
Step 3: Try to boot without the riser cable
Make sure the system can boot properly without the riser cable.
Step 4: Clean the connector contacts on the riser cable and GPU
Cleaning the connector contact (Gold Fingers) on both GPU and riser cable with rubbing alcohol to remove possible particle build-up.
Step 5: Ensure the cable is fully and securely inserted into the socket
Please make sure the male connector (Gold Fingers) is fully inserted into the motherboard’s PCIe socket. Our riser has a very short pin designed to provide better insertion loss. The pins may not be in full contact with the PCIe socket pins resulting in signal lanes drop from x16 to x8, or worse at x4 speed. Make sure you choose the right length cables. Too long or too short may both result in performance loss.
Step 6: Try a different PCI-e slot (Always choose the PCIe slot closest to the CPU)
If the motherboard has multiple Gen 4 PCIe slots, try to install the cable on a different slot.
Step 7: I have done all of the above and I’m still having trouble with the riser cable
PCI-E specifications do not regulate the use of a riser cable. As a result, Gen 4 motherboards are designed to connect the GPU directly. Hence leave a limited headroom for the use of a riser cable, and the use of a riser cable may fail when the insertion loss is over the limits due to poor components used in motherboards. Not all motherboards and GPUs are manufactured to the same quality, some have higher headroom than the other.
In these rare cases, the easiest ways to resolve the problem are:
- Exchange another riser cable to try. (If shorter length works, always choose a shorter length)
- Exchange another motherboard of the same brand.
- Exchange motherboard for a different brand. (99% of the customers have completely resolved the issue at this point)
- If none of these works, please get in touch with us directly and provide us with your system information (model/make of MB, CPU, GPU, PC case). We are happy to provide a solution.
*Please do not allow cable to directly touch the backplate of GPU which may generate temperatures higher than the riser cables' maximum operating temperature of 75 degrees celsius. If direct contact is unavoidable, applying thermal tape is strongly recommended
Plan for the Perfect Build
LINKUP PCIe Riser Cables are designed for various configurations:
- 270 ° "Left Angle - Downward" cables allow for the graphics card to extend down from the riser cable PCIe interface if the cable is kept straight.
- 180 ° "Straight" cables allow for the graphics card to extend straight out from the motherboard and riser cable PCIe interface if the cable is kept straight.
- 90 ° "Right Angle - Upward" cables allow for graphics cards to extend up from the riser cable PCIe interface if the cable is kept straight.
These angles and orientations are based on a standard vertically mounted motherboard configuration. The "component side" of the graphics card is usually the side most desired for GPU viewing.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
While it does work with the Meshify 2, it does not line up with the mounting holes on the case (nor does it come with any additional standoffs to attach it if it did). The vertical mounting PCIE slots on the Fractal Meshify 2 seem strong enough to hold it without the support, so this isn't a huge problem. You can see the card "floating" in my pictures.
The performance of it seems fine. I have not tested this GPU in the PCIE 4 slot directly, but I have yet to notice a performance loss from the riser on my XC3 3080 Ti.
My only issues with this is that it has ugly brick red plastic on it instead of being entirely black (which is honestly a baffling design decision) and the cost. The white version is all white, why is the black version not a neutral black or at least black/grey? But it's mostly hidden by the card. I don't want to take a star off for aesthetics, but at this price point... make it look nicer? The price seems a bit high, but this is one of about four PCIE 4.0 risers on the market, so I guess they can get away with it (or the tech is just that expensive).

EDIT: After reading several negative reviews on this product, I thought it important to share my perspective:
1) Cost vs. Value--several comments focus on the cost of this product being "too high", "pricey", "not worth it", etc. My perspective--You get what you pay for. This is a high quality product that is supporting the latest and greatest high end graphics cards. Spending $70 to support a $2000 graphics card is well worth the investment, in my opinion.
2) PCIe 4.0 Capability--several comments suggest this cable doesn't support PCIe 4.0 and causes OS and game crashes when the bios is set to PCIe 4.0 rather than 3.0. My perspective--care must be taken with the install to ensure you have the cable properly seated at both ends. If the cable is not fully seated in the mobo or fully seated on the card, your speed will drop to 3.0 or you will get only 8 lanes instead of 16. Just as importantly, you need to make sure you are inserting the cable into the full size PCIe slot closest to the processor on you mobo. Not all PCIe slots support PCIe 4.0 x 16. Check your mobo info to confirm you are plugging the cable into the right slot. Finally, it is vitally important you order the right cable length and connector angle. Again, LINKUP has a chart that will help guide your choice here for your specific setup. A cable that is too short and thus straining the connections on each end, for example, will not yield good results. Likewise, a cable that is too long and thus resting against other components in your build could be picking up noise that will interfere with the signal quality between your graphics card and the mobo.
I've been programming, building, and modifying computers since the 1960's. I've built, customized, and tweaked hundreds of PCs since their advent in the 1980's. I know how to lay a solid foundation and tweak the setup to get the most out of the build. I've verified with extensive testing that this product works exactly as advertised and is a high quality piece. If you're price sensitive, find a cheaper product and you'll get what you pay for. If you are having problems with this product working correctly, troubleshoot your setup before you blame the product. In my experience, that's where most computer problems lie.
Enjoy.

Très cher, mais fonctionne parfaitement en PCI 4.0 sans perte de performance (testé avec une 7900XTX).
Je recommande, même si ça fait cher le câble...
J'ai eu trop de soucis il y a 5 ans avec mes précédents Risers. Si l'on souhaite une carte déportée, il faut intégrer un produit haut de gamme dans le budget.
Una vez en casa procedí a cambiar un cable por el otro, y utilizando 3DMARK, visualizar la tasa de transferencia de este cable, adjunto foto... el cable de LINKUP de 80€ funciona a la mitad de velocidad que mi antiguo cable que sino recuerdo mal me costo 37€ 12'62GB/s(cable LINKUP) vs 24'16GB/s(mi viejo cable). Puntualizo que hice las mediciones en otros puertos e intercambiando los dos cables y las 3 veces que lo hice coincidió con ese resultado.
La solidez del cable tal como podéis observar es estupenda, ahora bien sus prestaciones pateticas.
El cable de LINKUP lo he devuelto a Amazon, y seguiré investigando a ver si encuentro otro Riser que sea de alta calidad.
