Aside from Installation Details, this is the perfect product if you want to add USB-C to your PC
I am new to pc modification/building, so I was a bit ignorant and ran into some trouble with the install. BIOS was up to date and manually went to install the driver as a redundancy, but still had issues.Quick Solution: If you can't get past POST after installing the card, but your PC works normally when the card is removed, you may just need to change your PCIe settings from AUTO to GEN.1 and then install the card.All in all, it does exactly what is needed. I can use my usb-c hub for my PC now as well as my work laptop and this allows me to just change the 1 usb-c cable from laptop to pc rather than 8 cables for all my peripherals. Adds a quality of life aspect to working with multiple computers. I would gladly purchase/recommend again.A more detailed view of my journey is below if you're interested-Here is my forum post:I'm new to PC modification/building, so please forgive my ignorance. As stated in the title, with the installation of a PCIe card, my PC will only open the boot screen and will be completely unresponsive. I can't even enter the BIOS menu. Without the card installed, there are no issues whatsoever.Current Build: i7-4790k Asrock z97 Killer mobo Asus Turbo GeForce GTX 1060 6gbI have verified BIOS is fully updated and the card doesn't require drivers when used with windows 10 and the pcie slot being used is in working condition. Is it possible my mobo doesn't support the card as my system is a little outdated?The pcie card in question is an attempt to add usb-c ports to my PC. Currently using a usbc hub for my work laptop and loathe the swapping of all of my cables (triple monitor setup among other peripherals).The response that solved my issue:Have you tried putting the PCIe riser card in a different PCIe slot?You could also try changing your PCIe settings for the slot from Auto to GEN.1 while you have the board removed, then put it back in and see if it gets through POST.Most of the PCIe riser cards will have backwards compatibility so an older system shouldn't be a problem, but can't rule that out. Do you have an older, small power supply as well? The USB cards can be pretty power hungry and it might not be able to draw enough power. Does your add in card have it's own power port from the PSU?

Easy to install if you follow the instructions.
Card looked nice and was easy to install. If you follow the instructions, it does say that you have to update the drivers. I went to their website and updated the drivers and was off and running. However, this is not my first time as I have built several of my own computers. The price point was right, and I also now have the ability to hook up three Internal USB devices as well. I did not need the front panel extension, but I did have an old Western Digital HDD Passport that I decided to put internal this card gave me that ability as I was able to find a cable to attach to the 19 pin for the front panel that had 2 USB ends on It. I also found a adapter for the other Type E port That allowed me to expand one more USB internal. I know this is not probably the intended use, but I find it valuable as these days they are coming out with very fast and large thumb drives. You could install these internal and keep your external USB's open for other devices plus you could really expand your computer's memory this way. I like it for me it was the right purchase as I also had no external C Ports. Nice product way to go Yeeliya. It works for me, and I believe others will like this product also 5/5 from me.

Works Great
Have had issues with getting a card that will work with an older MB. After a lot of work, this one finally loaded and works great. Paired it with a front panel expansion (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09QXGVM8Y?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details). The work very well. I tried adding a card to get type C ports but kept having driver issues with my existing card. Ended up just putting this card in to give me expanded A and C ports. Worked well after I uninstalled all old hardware and drivers in windows. It would only run on a PCIE ver 2.0 bus. Would not recognize on a ver 3.0 bus. The only issue with performance was when I plugged a WD 2.5 inch drive in. The card crashed and I had to reboot. I assume it was not able to supply enough current to start the drive. I use the port mainly to run a powered Plugable Lightning Extender / Hub. I can plug my drive directly here with not problems.

UPDATED: Not plug and play for Win10 - needs Sunix USB 3.1 Cypress Card Driver
UPDATE: In my earlier review I had found a workaround and specified that you cannot boot the computer with this card installed without first installing a driver; I further specified that if you ever remove the card afterward, you'll have to again first install the driver before inserting the card.Well, apparently unplugging the PC as well as Windows system updates ALSO count as removing the card. And if you don't physically remove the card before running the Windows update, your computer will freeze during the reboot.Short story: Don't buy this card. It's simply not worth the hassle.(Original review below):Took a LOT of fiddling to figure this one out, but I've finally got 3 working USB ports! Haven't tested the speeds yet, though.Basically, you need to install the Sunix USB 3.1 Cypress Card Driver from Dell.com's support page BEFORE shutting down your PC to plug in the card. Be sure to fully install the card before turning the system back on, because if you ever remove it, you'll have to first re-install the driver again before it will work.Without first installing that driver, my computer wouldn't get past POST. Feel free to try for yourself, though!My build:Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-4690K CPU @ 3.50GHzWindows 10 Home, 64bit (19044.1766)Gigabyte GA-Z97N-WIFI Mini ITX LGA1150 Motherboard
