Gathering feedback for 3M PCIe 16x (good for 4.0) riser cable in custom length (26cm). Let me know if you are interested.
I am contacting the manufacturer for bulk order discount and I am hopeful I can get the price down. I cannot confirm the price at the moment, it depends on the quantity we can pool together. Initial target is around USD65 + shipping (from HK).
As reference, digikey is currently selling 25cm for USD86.47 + shipping (USD10) = approx. USD96 total
Specification:
Riser Cable - PCIe 16x (good for ver 4.0)
Cable - 3M / Length - 26cm, end to end
As most of us here in SFFF know, although there is no official PCIe 4.0 16x standard riser cable out there, 3M seems to be the best one out there at the moment, in terms of compatibility. However the ones commonly offered are in 25cm (a little bit short) or 50cm (too long) for typical sandwich style cases. Ideal length will be around 26cm (connector to connector, full length). As such, I have ordered a sample for myself to test out and the extra length gives it a bit of slack and lower risk of over stretching and breaking the cable.
