Features

• For ITX cases with NVIDIA & AMD 6000 series GPUs. Newly revised PCIe 4.0. No BSOD, or WUE / WHEA Error free. Fully tested on RTX3090, RTX3080 & RX6800 in ITX cases with over 20 GB/s bandwidth. ***Special Note: Tested with mini-ITX MB + NVIDIA RTX3090, RTX3080 & AMD RX6800, recommended with mini-ITX MB + NVIDIA GPUs and AMD 6000 series GPU.
• Screws are not recommended for the riser cable. Some cases may have mis-align screw holes and may cause the GPU to be off alignment when installed, causing damage to the GPU and the system. Please install the riser cable onto the GPU first before securing the GPU with I/O bracket mount.
• Over 64GB/s (bi-directional) true PCIe 4.0 performance riser via rare shielded extreme high-speed wires and dedicated power lines for lossless signals at range. Re-engineered wires and connectors for PCIe 4.0 85ohm applications for GPUs, M.2 NVMe SSD. Quality hand soldered gold-plated contacts for signal integrity.
• Unique individual laneway shielding prevents external EMI/RFI and interference between channels. Sectional design allows air ventilation and lowers working temperatures for better overall system performance. *** Compatible with most GPU/motherboard components and fits most cases. *Overclock is not recommended and may cause system instability. Backed by LINKUP Limited 1-Year Warranty and complimentary Premium Online Support.

Description

Perfect Your Build with True 4.0 Performance Loque Ghost S1 Cases sold separately Sliger Cases sold separately Sliger Cases sold separately 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 Premium Straight Riser Cable LINKUP Ultra PCIE 4.0 Verified Extreme Right Angle 3.0 Riser Cables SLI Bridge LINKUP Custom MOD PSU Extension Cables PCIE 4.0 Verified x PCIE 4.0 Verified x x PSU Cable Extension Cable Angle Straight Straight, Right, Left or Reverse Angles Right Angle 90 Degrees x x Maximum Cable Length Up to 200cm Up to 50cm Up to 400cm in PCIe 3.0 Configuration Up to 60cm 30cm and 50cm
