Thermaltake AC-045-CN1OTN-C1 TT Premium PCI-E x16 3.0 Extender Riser Cable 300mm Graphic Cards Black

_Well, so far this Premium cable is working and not causing any issues.The build quality is quite nice, particularly where the cable meets the PCB boards. The EZDIY cable has two separate pieces there which flex easily and make a rather worrying noise._Price is a little on the high side, but @ $61 at time of purchase, it is quite a bit cheaper than the Lian Li & 3M cables. Perhaps those are better, I can't say. Maybe a touch longer than I'd like for the Core P3 case. Works fine, but it has to be folded a little tighter than I'd personally prefer. They do advertise that it can be bent over... though I wouldn't trust doing that. If you're able to mount the PSU with the fan facing out in your setup, you shouldn't have to bend it like I do._Note that the reviews for this premium cable & the other cable are being combined._Installed the Premium 300mm version in my system on 8/3/17.Will be sure to update this if I have issues later, I know many fellow Thermaltake Core owners in particular are having trouble.

I highly suggest cutting a string or cord to whatever mm length you need for your application. Extra cord can be a pain, but not enough is also a problem. The cord works well and flexes easily. Component quality seems great. After clocking, I see no reduction in performance. Although i'm sure the connectivity performance went down, the added air circulation and cooling that was gained by moving my card away from the motherboard seems to have increased performance. I have the 300mm cable. I can not speak to the quality of other lengths, but assume that they work just as well.

This cable is the best one for anyone wanting to mount their GPU horizontally. The other ones that are 200mm are *barely* able to reach from the socket to the GPU and when it does, it's bending the cable at an angle that could hinder the connection. The 300mm is just long enough to give soft curves in the cable and not hard bends. Also, it has been going around the internet that riser cables diminish the FPS from the GPU. For this particular cable, that is NOT TRUE. I've tested it with several games and I'm getting the same FPS that I did before mounting the GPU horizontally. I don't know about the other cables, but on this one, it is not an issue. The cable is good quality and exercising a little patience when mounting gives very little bending or creasing.

It looks good but I was unable to use it with mid tower because it makes contact with psu shroud. It does look nice/clean saving it for a later build

I was looking for a riser cable for my motherboard that was a 90 degree angle. I did not realize it didn’t have a 90 degree mount with this. I’m sure the cable is fantastic and works great but it did not for me unfortunately.

I saw a 40-50% increase in frames in almost all my games after installing this cable. It is a huge improvement over the crap one that came with the Core P3 Case. Overwatch ran at 45-85 fps in the old cable and 145-175 on the new cable. The build quality is phenomenal, the best available in my opinion. The black strands running cable consist of a quality rubber and can be bent and twisted as needed without you worrying about it. I needed to move the GPU slightly further away form the chassis as I originally had it configured (you can see my finger is pointing towards the old screw location). This was because the cable is slightly hard to bend towards the top and bottom and keeping the GPU in its original location would uncomfortably push on the cable where it connects to the mobo. But no worries, simply moving the GPU forwards solved the pushing issue. Thermaltake thought through the cable design and included a nice ThermalTake logo in locations where the cable is visible in their "P" model cases. Very well done and highly highly recommended if you are seeing lag when using the crap cable included in their Core P3 case. The 300mm cable is a boss.

Used this in a Thermaltake View 71 TG Snow Edition to connect a Aorus X470 Gaming 7 WiFi to a Aorus RTX 2080 Ti that's mounted on the GPU riser bracket that came with the View 71 TG.First time using a riser cable and it works as intended out of the box. The only thing I thought was missing was maybe a little slip of paper showing where and how to attach it to the bracket and how to unlock the latch on the riser cable where the GPU plugs into.I'm likely just a dummy, but if someone was new to this product and doesn't do some research online; it'd might be a tad confusing.Otherwise, excellent cable and I recommend it if you want to show off your PC build.

The Raijintek ophion mini itx case comes with its own PCI-E riser card, but mine must have had issues because the system I built kept crashing or getting stuck.I was worried it could be my motherboard or the graphics card.While not cheap, this riser card is long enough and insulated enough to handle this case. Crashing stopped. System works great now.

So far so good! feels like a sturdy cable. Works good with the Thermaltake View 31 Case.I would recommend the 300MM over the 200MM for the View 31, it sits nice on top the the PSU and doesn't obstruct the other PCIE slots.

Works great, as it should being so highly priced. =)It does feel 'premium'. Installed in a TT Core P5.

No drops in fps.Very flexible.

Excellent product works fantastic with no drop in performance took it's time to arrive but it did come from the USA would recommend this riser cable for length,durabilaty and performance.

It works. No degradation unlike every other one I've tried. Flexible enough to make a tight angle in my View 71 case.The only thing I could pick on is the blue PCB. Doesn't make much sense in 2019. Black would have been a lot cleaner.
