MaddMutt Posted May 13, 2023 Share Posted May 13, 2023 I have seen on some great scores from using a SS or even a Dice/LN2 pot on a video card BUT they don't use a riser cable when benching? I know if I use a x16 riser cable this would give me more flexibility/room over installing it straight to the MB. Is there a reason not to use one (lower score)? I'm looking to try a setup like this but use a riser cable -> https://hwbot.org/submission/5272727_nachtfalke_3dmark2001_se_geforce_gtx_560_ti_211697_marks Here is a link to a x16 riser cable that I'm looking to use. https://www.ebay.com/itm/175473701215?hash=item28db0c315f:g:MfMAAOSwDtRjYdzQ&amdata=enc%3AAQAIAAAAwBeiLKuDkdsG%2BExl5tcXF6AVxC2vA48DlhW0ISsorfz4WtU7k9rA3QWMiRGgP8%2FNahrNoRH8o5%2BSC0nmxbikCyLXFK7JcPIK6rqDNWGmLhrfrtqogYMo%2B4dJWap5jnoY6vdAQY3%2F0WtibkI9LflpdoUDjUD4%2F1hCk17Dmkg%2BwHQIcVP3%2BRiZCm%2FEULYm6B05Exig1xUceL6h7PsJ1sXVY26EPkmImBNzA2L9c5LmhWUWhbiTPeVtAgWgdbloEN%2FjcA%3D%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR46XysuCYg Thank You For Your Time In Reading and Replying Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TerraRaptor Posted May 14, 2023 Share Posted May 14, 2023 I'm using it quite often but haven't tested it with 3.0 cards yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zombie568 Posted May 30, 2023 Share Posted May 30, 2023 the most convenient length is 40 cm (uses a raptor) I took 30 cm for myself and this causes inconvenience in terms of the location of the video card 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nnimrod Posted May 30, 2023 Share Posted May 30, 2023 Is there a performance/efficiency hit for using one of these? The traces are now much longer... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TerraRaptor Posted May 30, 2023 Share Posted May 30, 2023 Shouldn't be. 100mhz is still 100mhz. Performance hit is possible if connection has problems and pcie drops to older version (pcie 1.0 instead of i.e 2.0) or lower mode (pcie x4 instead of x16). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
