blackice Posted December 4, 2017 Report Share Posted December 4, 2017 Just throwing my hat into the ring with this problem. Just bought a Core P5 it has the white clip on the riser cable and my video card (Asus Poseidon 1080ti) on MB(Asus ROG maximus Hero X AC wifi w/ i7-8700k) and when I check the video card with GPU-Z it is showing that it is only able to come up at x8 1.1. I am sure it is in the correct PCIe slot and the BIOS even if I force it to x16 gen3 I still only get x8. Funny how you know there is a major problem when you run a benchmark on the video and the result was WAY under my 1060 GTX card, and barely better than a built in laptop graphics card lol. I sent in the email yesterday as per Mike, so I will have to hurry up and wait. Not to be "that guy" but if this has been going on since Feb 2016 why are these white clip cables still being shipped with newer stock?

JohnJOhn Posted December 9, 2017 Report Share Posted December 9, 2017 So are the cases that are being sold now with the riser cable all with the newer working cables? Were all the old cases with the troublesome cables recalled? Would be good to know before someone buys a case and getting one of the bad cables. Not having to worry about sending off emails.

Swinox Posted December 10, 2017 Report Share Posted December 10, 2017 Contacted support for Belgium (i guess it's the german support) 6 months ago, they said they would send me a replacement cable. Still nothing received after 6 #### months. I have send 5 #### emails back and they don't even answer, worst support ever! As you can see I am very #### right now. Never ever will I buy anything from Thermaltake again, now I have to invest another #### 60-80 euros for a decent pci-e extender. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lindenberger Posted December 13, 2017 Report Share Posted December 13, 2017 Just got totally unexpected (because of no email updates at all from TT) the new riser cable! Very happy. I sent my email (with invoice) a week ago. Thanks TT, a Belgian Core G3-owner. :-) ThermalMike 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nukeblast Posted December 14, 2017 Report Share Posted December 14, 2017 Greetings. I purchased a P3 back in October, and my able did not work from the start so after trying to install my gpu with the extender and failing i gave up and installed it normally. Then i discovered a youtube video about this case and the creator talked about this post in this forum, so i emailed info@thermaltake.com (Romania, EU) also made a ticket on the EU support page. Then nothing for about 7 days, then i got a call from UPS to inform me that i have a package. Thermaltake sent a new riser cable, the 20 cm unbent one, and it finally works great with the gpu mounted with the riser cable. Thank you.

JohnJOhn Posted December 21, 2017 Report Share Posted December 21, 2017 I bought the Core P5 case and the riser cable was not working. I emailed Tt and they responded via email within three days asking for documentation that I actually purchased the case. Sent it to them. Within 7 days of the first email I now have a new cable. The day prior to it coming in the mail I received a phone call where they told me to expect it the next day. I actually haven't tested the new cable yet as I just got it today and I have been busy but I have to give Tt an A+ for customer support. Im astounded that they got me a new cable this quickly. When they called they just asked that I return the old cable to them after I check the new one. I will do so within the next couple days after I test the new cable. My faith in investing in further Tt products has increased because of the quick response time and support. Thanks. Very happy. Also- I am in Thailand right now but used the US email address listed when I sent the original email. ThermalMike 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crazydane Posted December 22, 2017 Report Share Posted December 22, 2017 Found this thread and submitted a RMA request following the provided link. Had my replacement riser cable within a week. Appreciate the quick turn around. Now my rig is finally complete! I also have my 10G NIC on a riser cable behind the Zotac. Since it is Gen2, it worked with just a plain ribbon cable. I know, I really should hard tube it up! Lindenberger 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
