Has anyone out there attempted to try to relocate the PCIE port to the other side of a motherboard? Are the terminals on either side of the card interface leading to the same place? I know even trying to do so would likely result in bricking both the motherboard as well as whatever card you plug into it, but I still have to wonder. honestly, I blame WC'ing for me even thinking such a thing. All those gorgeous looking blocks from CPU and motherboards all hiding in the shadow of the massive videocards...
Not the same thing, but one of my friends used a pcie extender cable to relocate his G/C in his case, he was only aircooling, so he had to mod his case for the card to vent, but it looked good ( something different), I imagine if your watercooling you could put the card anywhere you want.
i think the back terminals are the same, some years ago i cant remeber 100% which forum i think it was on hexus, some one revered the agp port in that way for a htpc project which he needed for his radeon AIW card
I'm not sure how that is going to work. Even if you move the connector on the motherboard to its other side, you'd have to flip the GPU card over to insert it, which means that all its connections are upside-down relative to the motherboard.
PCI-E pins are not all mirrored. It won't work. There are things you can remove/remote, but that's not one. Use a shielded extension.
hi would 1 of these help http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/201064678739?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649
Nope, they are for bitcoin mining purposes. The bandwidth won't be enough for a GPU card functioning as GPU card.
Talking with a lot of experience of soldering very small ICs with large pin counts you'll never do it!
Speaking theoretically and I don't think this will work but can he use one of these with the PCIe connector soldered to the underside of the mobo to reverse the lanes back?: I know nothing about the PCIe topology.
