A good quality PCIE 3 riser will be fine running at PCIE 4.

There isn’t any ‘logic’ in these, there just wires. It’s just all about the quality of the electrical connections and if they become too degraded by the time they reach the card.

Just buy a good quality one, if it doesn’t work just end it back, I would t worry about it being specifically marketed as pcie 4.

I remember seeing a video on youtube comparing riser cables and they were able to daisy chain a GPU off 10 or so good quality ones where as lower quality ones stopped working after a couple.

EK’s vertical riser cable won’t install the 3080 without constantly forcing the driver to reinstall over and over on my CH8.

I’ve yet to see a 3.0 certified cable work with a 3080.

You did not copy source then. You need to right click and view image to see the correct url.

Url will look like this: https://i.imgur.com/wwNYOK3.jpg

Bet if you copy paste that as I say it will work.

I have it in my imgur app where I can copy the link. I do that, and then, the result is the same. Strange.

TNA · 22 Nov 2020 at 17:55

Because you are not copying the right link. If you are on the pc then right click the image you want to post and click view image. That is the link you want.

You see all the links given in that image above in your post, none of those are what you want. Maybe direct image may work actually. But best do the way I say which works every time.

I see the 3080 won best gaming hardware at the Golden Joysticks

SloppyChops · 26 Nov 2020 at 11:42

Anyone else constantly refreshing the Nvidia site to see if the FE's will come back in stock? I saw they were back in last week during the AMD reference launch but sold out pretty quickly.

Desperately trying to get my hands on a 3080FE
