Xhuttle GPU Holder Compatibility

Modified on Tue, Apr 15 at 12:40 PM

Compatibility & Overview

Design Specifications

  • The included GPU Holderis designed to support graphics cards installed in:
    • Primary (1st) PCIe slot (recommended for optimal stability)
    • Secondary (2nd) PCIe slot (full compatibility)

Current Limitations

⚠️ Not compatible when GPU is installed in:

  • Third (3rd) or lower PCIe slots (mechanical mismatch)
  • Future revisions may address this limitation



  • Installation Instructions

    1. Check PCIe Slot Position

    • If the GPU Holder does not align, ensure your GPU is installed in the first or second PCIe slot (recommended for full bandwidth and bracket compatibility).

    1. Reposition the GPU (If Possible)

    • If your motherboard allows, try moving the GPU to the second PCIe slot to ensure proper GPU Holder alignment.

    1. Alternative Solutions for Third-Slot Installations

    • If your setup requiresusing the third PCIe slot, the included GPU Holder may not fit. Consider:
      • Using an aftermarket GPU support holder.
      • DIY Solution: Extend holder with 1-2cm spacer (metal/plastic), secure with original screws




FAQ

Q: Can the GPU Holder be modified to fit the third PCIe slot?

  • Currently, no. The GPU Holder is optimized for the first and second slots. We are evaluating future improvements.

Q: What if my motherboard only has one PCIe slot?

  • Fully supported - Designed specifically for primary slot installations

Q: Where can I find an alternative support bracket?

  • DIY Tips:  3D-printed extensions work well (PLA+ recommended)
