PCI-E 1x to 16x Riser Adapter
This adapter connects a full-size graphics card to a single-lane PCI Express slot using a USB 3.0 cable. It includes a 16x slot with a retention lock and a 1x riser board. The kit is aimed at builders who need to space multiple cards away from the motherboard in mining rigs or multi-GPU compute setups.
USB 3.0 Link Limits
The connection runs over a USB 3.0 cable, so the electrical link remains a single PCI Express lane regardless of the 16x physical slot. Bandwidth-sensitive workloads such as gaming or high-throughput compute will be constrained by the 1x interface. The SATA 15-pin to 4-pin power cable draws card power directly from the PSU instead of the motherboard slot.
1x Electrical Interface
The decisive specification is that the adapter provides only a 1x electrical connection to the host. Cards requiring higher lane counts for full performance will operate at reduced speed. It is not for builds where the GPU must communicate at 4x, 8x or 16x lane widths.

Questions about this item
Which riser kit should I choose if I need a single GPU extension with SATA power?
This kit includes one PCI-E 16x adapter, one 1x riser board, one USB 3.0 cable and one SATA 15pin-to-4pin power cable — everything needed for a single-card setup.
What does the PCI-E 1x to 16x conversion mean for my graphics card once installed?
The card runs at 1x electrical bandwidth through the USB 3.0 link while the 16x slot mechanically locks it in place with 2x FP solid capacitors for stable power.
How does the SATA power connection affect the power delivery to the GPU?
The SATA 15pin male to 4pin cable feeds the GPU directly, removing load from the motherboard slot and letting multiple cards share one power source.
