Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Strong recommend. Very happy. And this vendor obviously understands the terminology.

Card was recognized immediately on first boot. Only minor issue is that the card is not perfectly shaped, causing it to lift a bit out of the pcie slot when you screw it into the case.

This is my first-time using pass-thru connectors, and i have mixed feelings. They are more expensive than some others that are available, but i know these will work perfectly, especially with a same brand crimper.



Cons

Straight garbage. Card works, but the low profile they sent is a blank plate. But it’s just loosely hanging out the back of my case.
