Vszerda PCI-E 1 to 5 Riser Card

The Vszerda PCI-E 1 to 5 Riser Card expands a single PCI-E x1 slot into five PCI-E USB 3.0 ports using the ASM1187e chip. It is designed for builders who need to connect multiple expansion cards to a motherboard with limited PCI-E slots, such as in mining configurations.

Suited for multi-card mining rigs on Linux

This card suits miners and hobbyists running Linux, Windows 7, 8, 10 or 11 who need to attach several risers to one x1, x4, x8 or x16 slot. It is not for users wanting standard USB 3.0 peripherals, as the five ports carry only PCI-E signals and will damage ordinary USB devices if connected.

Five PCI-E lanes from one x1 slot

The splitter delivers five PCI-E connections without an external power cable, drawing supply directly from the motherboard slot. It comfortably handles multiple graphics cards when the board, power supply and cooling are adequate, but the supplier notes that eight or more cards require Linux and that total card count depends on the specific motherboard.

Questions about this item

What free slot on my motherboard does the Vszerda PCI-E 1 to 5 Riser Card need?

How do I verify the ASM1187e chip is functioning after I connect five graphics cards?

Boot into Linux or Windows 10/11 and confirm all five GPUs appear in Device Manager or lspci without errors.
