Green circuit board with one PCIe x1 edge connector and two blue USB 3.0 ports, plus a small black ASM1182e chip

Vszerda

Vszerda PCI-E 1 to 2 Riser Card USB 3.0

SKU CH-5T6V-HNFS4

Expands a single PCI-E slot into two ports using an ASM1182e chip for mining or multi-card setups

  • Expands one PCIe x1 slot into two ports for additional expansion cards
  • ASM1182e chip provides direct PCIe power without extra cables for stable operation
  • USB 3.0 connectors carry PCIe signals only — do not attach USB devices
  • Compatible with PCIe x4, x8, x16 slots and Windows 7 through 11 plus Linux
  • Requires B250 or newer chipset motherboard and sufficient PSU capacity for multi-GPU use

PCI-E 1 to 2 riser with USB 3.0 connectors

The Vszerda adapter plugs into a single PCI-E x1 slot and provides two additional PCI-E lanes through USB 3.0 connectors. It draws power directly from the slot so no extra cable is required. The board uses the ASM1182e chip and works with DOS, Linux, Windows XP and Windows 7 through 11.

Builders expanding GPU count on a B250

The card suits miners or compute users who need more PCI-E endpoints and have a motherboard chipset that supports multiple graphics cards. It is not for anyone who wants to plug ordinary USB peripherals into the two ports, because those ports carry PCI-E signals only. Users with older chipsets that lack multi-GPU support should look elsewhere.

Two extra PCI-E endpoints from one x1 slot

The riser comfortably handles a pair of GPUs or other PCI-E devices when the power supply has enough headroom and the case offers adequate cooling space. It runs out when the motherboard chipset cannot enumerate multiple devices or when the single x1 uplink becomes a bandwidth bottleneck for heavy workloads.

Questions about this item

What motherboard chipset is recommended for the Vszerda PCI-E 1 to 2 Riser Card?

A motherboard with a B250 or higher chipset is recommended because low-end chipsets do not support multiple graphics cards.

Can the two USB 3.0 ports on this riser card be used for regular USB devices?

No, the two USB ports carry PCI-E signals only; connecting USB devices will damage both the devices and the riser card.

How can I verify the Vszerda riser card is functioning correctly after installation?

The system should recognise both PCI-E slots under DOS, Linux, WinXP, Win7, Win8, Win10 or Win11, confirming the ASM1182e chip is operating.
