But it is a working and error-free riser cable as of now, that is also PCIe 4.0 compatible based on the link speed I'm seeing in hwinfo. I am not sure if I would recommend this riser+cable after dealing with its flimsiness and the PCIe errors it generates. The currently error-free way I have this riser setup on my 5000d is with the riser board slid as rightmost as possible (in the direction of the front fans), while still aligning inside the screwholes in the chassis. The riser board has multiple screwhole positions that you can slide giving a little flexibility as to where the board is mounting exactly. After temporarily switching back to a horizontal mount (without a riser cable), the PCIe errors went away.Īs of right now, while back to a vertical mount, I think I got those PCIe errors to go away by reinstalling the riser by slightly adjusting the position, which also helps improve the GPU sag by a little bit. It wasn't glitching out my games or causing noticeably lower performance, but I was able to see these errors in windows event logs along with hwinfo. So I used those files to get a mounting plate 3D-printed by a third party for like $30, which in the end turned out ok for me.Ģ) I got a bunch of PCIe errors with this riser. Mine never actually broke, but I feel like it was bound to happen after holding the weight of a heavy GPU while sitting on just two standoffs, which made the riser PCB bend slightly.įortunately, one reviewer 3D-printed a mounting plate for this riser and shared his files on thingverse ( ). No drilling or case modification required for the 5000d, just obtain and screw the correct standoffs on the floor directly above the PSU, the case already has them pre-drilled.Īlthough this riser worked fine on my games while at PCIe 4.0 link speeds, I have mixed feelings about this riser cable in general: The riser cable I use is a LINKUP PCIe 4.0 Riser Cable 25cm (link: ), which apparently is out of stock currently. By the way, Im mounting my evga 3070 ti in the middle verticle mounting spot.I also have that same case with my 3090 vertically mounted, however, it's on a waterblock instead of an air/hybrid cooler, so I'm not sure how the spacing and airflow is for non-waterblocks with that 5000d case. Once it come's in, I will do a fitting check on it and make sure it fits without having to bunch the riser cable up behind the GPU. Anyways, I have ordered the Linkup pcie 4.0 right angle 15cm(150mm) riser cable. So 30cm(300mm) is over 10cm(100mm) to dam long. 3rd mounting spot (closest to side glass) should be about 20cm(200mm) lenght. Mounting spot closest to Mb(motherboard) should be 15cm(150mm) length as well as the middle mounting spot(prolly can go 20cm or 200mm lenght for middle). I have determined that 30cm(300mm) is way to long, for any of the 3 mounting spots in a 7000d case. After doing a Prebuild on part of the new system. Which I will tell you is way to long, You shouldnt have to bunch the cable up that dam much. I order the LinkUp Pcie 4.0 right angle 30cm (300mm) riser cable going by the lenght of corsair riser cable. I've been busy doing things and had to put my new system on the back burner, anyway got back to being able to work on it and during that time. No reply and no update, guess I will tell my own findings.
