PCI-E x1 extension cable

[Morg]

Does anyone have any experience of using a pci-e x1 extender cable? Do they work well?

I'd like to purchase http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=NW-064-AS but my gpu just about covers both pci-e slots. I don't want to buy the adapter if the cable is going to impede it.

Thanks

I literally bought one a few days ago for my soundcard while I work out where to put it (bought a new GPU and have no room).


They work fine https://fbcdn-sphotos-c-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-frc1/903537_10152722469430557_1782943485_o.jpg

Hey thanks for that. Can I ask how much you spent on it? (i don't think this breaks any rules as I can't find any on ocuk). I've seen cheap ones for about 3 quid but I'm wondering if they are going to be shonky.
