Lian Li PW-PCI-520X ribbon cable PCI-E x16 to PCI x16 Black 0.2m

Experience the full potential of PCIe 5.0 with data transfer rates up to 32 Gbps, doubling the bandwidth of PCIe 4.0. This PCIe 5.0 x16 riser cable is backward compatible with PCIe 2.0, 3.0 and 4.0 standards, providing reliable connectivity and future-proof performance. The cable features a 180° to 90° connector and a 200 mm length to enable flexible GPU placement while keeping airflow optimized and the system layout tidy. It is compatible with a wide range of cases including the O11 and LANCOOL series.

Advantages

The riser cable supports PCIe 5.0 speeds up to 32 Gbps while remaining fully compatible with older PCIe versions, ensuring broad compatibility with existing motherboards and GPUs. Its 180° to 90° connector and 200 mm length provide installation flexibility for different chassis layouts and improve airflow and component presentation. Designed to fit common case form factors such as O11 and LANCOOL series, it simplifies modular builds.

How to use

Install the riser cable by seating the female end into the motherboard PCIe x16 slot and securing the male connector to the GPU slot or bracket as required by your case layout. Route the 200 mm cable to avoid sharp bends and ensure the 180° to 90° connector orientation matches the available clearance. Confirm all connections are firmly seated before powering the system and verify device recognition in the BIOS or operating system.

Recommendations

For optimal signal integrity and cable longevity, avoid excessive bending or kinking and keep the cable away from high-heat components. Use in cases that provide adequate clearance for the 90° connector, such as O11 and LANCOOL series, and verify compatibility with your motherboard and GPU before installation.
