With this 30-centimeter long riser cable from CableMod, the PCI Express x16 slot available on a motherboard can be strategically positioned elsewhere in or outside the case. This is particularly useful when frequently swapping different graphics cards, as it helps prevent damage to the motherboard slot or provides more space during the installation of expansion cards.

In modding projects or in cases that deviate from the standard ATX format, it may be necessary or beneficial to place PCI Express expansion cards in unconventional locations. With the CableMod PCIe 4.0 riser cable, for example, a vertically mounted graphics card can be connected to the motherboard in a chassis that is already factory-equipped with vertical PCI expansion slots.
