PCIe USB 3.1 Gen1 Adapter

This LORDWORLD adapter adds one USB 3.0 Type-A and one USB Type-C port to a desktop PC through a PCIe 1x slot. It uses the uPD720201 chipset and includes both low-profile and standard brackets for different chassis. The card targets users who need extra SuperSpeed USB ports without replacing their motherboard.

5Gbps throughput and power limits

The controller delivers up to 5Gbps bandwidth and is compliant with USB 3.1 Gen1, 3.0, 2.0 and 1.1 specifications. The Type-C port supports 5V/3A charging for compatible devices. High-power peripherals such as SSDs require an auxiliary power connection; the adapter cannot carry video, audio or Thunderbolt signals.

Passive cooling and driver support

The card operates without a fan, so it adds no audible noise to the system. Windows 10, 11, macOS 10.8.2 and later, and Linux work without extra drivers; Windows 7 and 8 need the supplied driver package. Power draw stays within the PCIe slot limits for typical USB devices.

Questions about this item

Will the uPD720201 card share bandwidth with my older PCIe 2.0 slot?

The adapter uses a PCIe 1x connection, so it will operate at the slot's native speed; the uPD720201 chipset supports Multiple INs to fully utilise the 5Gbps USB 3.1 Gen1 bandwidth.

How do I verify the Type-C port is delivering 5V/3A after installation?

Connect a device that reports charging current; the port supplies up to 5V/3A for power charging, and the OS should enumerate the link at 5Gbps (SuperSpeed) if the driver loads correctly.

Does the package include both the 8cm low-profile and 12cm standard brackets, and do I need a separate power cable for an SSD?

Both brackets are supplied; an extra power supply is required when attaching high-power devices such as an SSD because the connector only transfers USB 3.1/3.0 data and power.
