Review on Chenyang CY PCI-E to USB 3.1 Type E Front Panel Socket & USB 2.0 to PCI-E 3.0 2X Express Card Adapter for Motherboard by Andargie Marquez

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good option for adding USB 3.1 support, with a big caveat about size

The card worked, but with a caveat: the down-facing side of the Type-E connector means the USB Cable is not very flexible and the card now works up to at least 2.5 slots on the motherboard. I could not use this card and the WLAN card at the same time because of the space requirement. The Type-e plug had to point outwards at the side.

Pros
  • USB port cards
Cons
  • Low maintainability
