Did have a question about the gen 4 PCI-E riser though...it says 'Fully tested and fully compatible with newly released NVIDIA RTX3000 series GPU, AMD RX6000 series GPU and AMD X570 motherboards'. What about B550 motherboards? Figure I shouldn't have to worry, but may as well ask.
Yes they do, at least some. Mine for instance.
Yes it does, that's literally the point of B550 (vs B450)
The difference between B550 and X570, is that on B550 you have 20 lanes direct from CPU 16 for graphics and 4 for a nvme. Chipset connected via Gen 3
X70 connects the chipset via gen4, so you get additional lanes / devices
If you need MULTIPLE gen4 nvme drives (or other devices), sure you need X570.
The reviews for the riser seem good https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08NMNFZB6/ref=ask_ql_qh_dp_hza
It being Lian Li I bet it will come to European reselleres soon, too. Would be stupid not to, right?This looks like the PCIe 4.0 version. Here is the normal one:
SSUPD Meshlicious Mini-ITX Small Form Factor (SFF) Case - One Tempered Glass Side Panel & One Mesh Side Panel with PCIe 3.0 Riser Cable - Black Color, Tool-Free and Easy Accessibility - Newegg.com
Buy SSUPD Meshlicious Mini-ITX Small Form Factor (SFF) Case - One Tempered Glass Side Panel & One Mesh Side Panel with PCIe 3.0 Riser Cable - Black Color, Tool-Free and Easy Accessibility with fast shipping and top-rated customer service. Once you know, you Newegg!www.newegg.com
It's actually 10$ cheaper than the 119$ we've seen before. Ships from Taiwan though which sucks, no idea why they can't ship to Europe, if I want to order to EU I have to order from Newegg to get it shipped from Taiwan to US and then from US to Europe which is ridiculous.
Supposedly only in the second batch, meaning preorder in April, don't ask me why they haven't figured out to have it available in Europe right now, since they're shipping it from Taiwan anyway, it's not like it's in US already, they could ship it from Taiwan to any of the EU resellers the same way. I already preordered from Newegg, so will have to pay for additional shipping from US to Europe, but what can you do, I don't want to wait till like May to receive the case.
It's coming, but being a bunch of separate markets makes distribution more complex than in the US. CaseKing and OCUK have been mentioned as possible sources previously in the thread, but as @Marvelm said it's not going to be for the first batch.
Thats what I thought, just thought it was interesting that it said specifically x570, but not b550. Figured a riser is a riser is a riser haha.
Also was a little concerned about the non-gen 4 SKU on newegg because there is not a single mention of it including a gen 3 riser or anything. Not in the pictures, not in the description, nothing.
I assume it comes with it since the description on the SSUPD website this whole time said it did, but on newegg people who arent familiar with the case may not know it comes with a riser.

Wait, the April preorders will cost more? Why?
The white model isn't even available until April - so everyone looking forward to that instead of preordering now gets penalized?
Just pre-ordered the non-PCI-4 version. Can someone confirm that this also comes with a riser cable, albeit a previous-gen version? Seconding @Rich_Holm 's question.

Just copying and pasting from LinkUP, will confirm about B550 mobo with LinkUP asap.
