Get full PCIe 5.0 performance in compact, vertical GPU, and custom PC builds with the LINKUP AVA5 PCIe 5.0 Riser Cable. Designed by the LINKUP AVA team for high-speed PCI Express applications, this Reverse Left Angle version is ideal for ITX systems, vertical GPU installations, water-cooled builds, workstations, servers, and other space-constrained configurations.
Built with premium conductors and advanced shielding, the AVA5 riser cable provides a reliable high-bandwidth connection between your motherboard and graphics card while supporting the latest generation of GPUs, including NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 Series and AMD Radeon RX 9070 Series graphics cards.
PCIe 5.0 Performance
Engineered to meet PCI Express 5.0 specifications, AVA5 provides the bandwidth required by modern high-performance systems while remaining backward compatible with PCIe 4.0 and earlier PCIe generations.
Replace an older PCIe 3.0 or PCIe 4.0 riser cable without giving up the performance capabilities of a PCIe 5.0 motherboard and GPU.
Designed for Vertical GPU & ITX Builds
The Reverse Left Angle connector orientation is designed for PC cases and GPU mounting configurations where cable routing space is limited. It is especially useful for:
- Vertical GPU installations
- Mini-ITX and compact PC cases
- Custom water-cooled systems
- Gaming PCs and high-performance workstations
- AI and machine-learning systems
- Multi-GPU and server applications
- Custom chassis and industrial configurations
Multiple cable lengths are available to accommodate a wide variety of PC cases and system layouts.
High-Speed Shielded Construction
High-speed PCIe signals require more than standard cable construction. LINKUP AVA5 uses premium materials and extensive shielding to help maintain signal integrity in demanding PCIe 5.0 environments.
The cable can also be used with compatible PCIe devices beyond graphics cards, providing additional flexibility for custom system configurations.
Compatible with PCIe 5.0 Workstations & Servers
AVA5 riser cables are suitable for gaming systems as well as professional and server applications. They are compatible with PCIe 5.0 platforms including systems based on motherboards such as:
- ASUS Pro WS WRX80E-SAGE SE WIFI II
- ASUS Pro WS WRX90E-SAGE SE
Custom lengths and industrial configurations may also be available for specialized applications.
Choosing the Correct Cable Length
For the best fit, measure the routing distance from the motherboard PCIe slot to the GPU PCIe connector.
A simple method is to use a piece of string to follow the exact path the riser cable will take inside your case, then measure the string.
If you are unsure which length or connector orientation is correct, send us the brand and model of your PC case and our support team will help recommend the most suitable LINKUP riser cable.

Compatible PC Cases & Mounts
These recommendations are linked to this specific riser cable.
| Brand | Case / Mount | Configuration | Installation Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Antec | Performance 1M | Standard configuration |
Install the riser cable with the socket facing downward, then flip the socket upward to install the GPU. The screw holes may not align with the case. Standoffs may be required. See Installation Photo for reference. The Installation Photo shows the cable installation method in a Fractal Design Terra case. |
| Fractal Design | Era 2 | Standard configuration |
The screw holes will not align. Standoffs, as listed above, are required to support the riser cable. The original case screws secure the sides of the riser cable PCB rather than passing through its screw holes. See Installation Guide for reference. |
| Fractal Design | Mood | Standard configuration | — |
| Fractal Design | Terra | Standard configuration |
The screw holes will not align. Standoffs, as listed above, are required to support the riser cable. The original case screws secure the sides of the riser cable PCB rather than passing through its screw holes. See Installation Guide for reference. |
| Lian Li | Q58 | Standard configuration | Install the riser cable with the socket facing downward, then flip the socket upward to install the GPU. |
| NZXT | H1 | Standard configuration |
The screw holes will not align. A standoff, as listed above, is required to support the right side of the riser cable. The original case screws secure the sides of the riser cable PCB rather than passing through its screw holes. See Installation Photo for reference. Compatibility with the NZXT H1 V1 has not yet been verified, but the installation is expected to be similar. |
