💻 ELUTENG PCIe USB 3.0 Card with 4 Ports Expansion - Super Speed 5Gbps PCI Express USB3 Hub Controller Adapter for Windows 10/8.1/8/7/XP/Vista - Self Powered - No Additional Power Supply Required Review

So I bought this after my last X570 motherboard suddenly gave up the ghost and chose the Asus Hero model viii as my next option. All in all a good motherboard, but I felt it didn't have perfect USB 3 performance as it doesn't run my HP Reverb G2. This was recommended as a fix for a known issue with Asus motherboards, so I put the money into it. Well it didn't do what I needed but I thought it might be my VR headset so I kept it and ended up replacing it with the Vive Pro 2. Problems still…

I bought this product due to a compatibility issue with my VR headset (HP Verb 2) and x570 motherboard. With a previous installation, the VR headset was not recognized by my computer. After investigating the issue, a user on Reddit suggested this product as a workaround. So I installed this product on my computer and after plugging in the headset, it was recognized immediately. An added advantage of this product over some others is that it obviously doesn't require an external power cable. This

It took over an hour to get this card working properly but it had NOTHING to do with the card itself! With this card installed, I now have *13* USB ports installed on *3* SATA USB cards! Needless to say, Windows 10 didn't immediately embrace these new ports. Lots of trial and error to get everything hooked up correctly. The nice thing is that I now have 6 external hard drives connected to these cards, for a total of *12* hard drives! Your system is probably a lot less complex than mine, but if…

With this card I was finally able to connect the new HP Reverb G2 VR headset to a PC with an old motherboard! Although my motherboard (Asus Rampage IV Extreme) has USB 3.0 ports, I was unable to establish a stable connection to the Reverb G2 and finish installing its software. I've experimented with different driver versions with three other third-party USB 3.0/3.1 add-in cards, but couldn't get them to work properly. After reading about this card on the HP Reverb G2 user forum, I tried it and…

Pro Tip: Always use the product for at least a day before writing a review. Was 5 stars, now 1. Initially the card seemed to work perfectly as stated in my previous review. When I started connecting other devices (MIDI controller, wireless mouse/keyboard receiver) Windows USB errors started to appear. I tried several PCI-E slots but none worked. I also tried installing the VIA driver from the CD but that didn't help. I finally gave up and plugged in a USB 3.0 hub, now all my devices work. Maybe

After fighting (and almost giving back) this for my DL380p Gen8 server on one of the PCIe 3.0 ports, I remembered that it has a PCIe 2.0 slot. So before I put it back in the box, I tried it - it works! No driver updates or kernel modifications required! I tested transferring 18GB video files and averaged about 120MB/s in 2.5 minutes. I will take it. I've already connected a few drives to this port, but I don't think I can hit the 500MB/s limit on a PCIe 2.0 port. Great performance for the…
