Ok heres my problem. I bought my GeForce 4 Ti 4600 a long ass time ago, I know time to upgrade. Well it takes up one of my PCI slots even though it's not supposed to because of the damn layout of my case. Any whoo, i wanna use up that PCI slot thats taken.
Is their such a thing as like a ribbon extender. My case has 7 PCI slots but my MB only has 5, so can I find some sort of ribbon that I plug into the PCI slot on my MB, then put my PCI card in an empty PCI slot that is extra on my case and plug the ribbon into that.
Kinda make sense and is it possible, if so where can I find some

I know they are available but I haven't seen them available for sale. A lot of the rackmount cases include something along the lines of what you are looking for as well as dell's desktop model (As in it sits on your desk)

$20 bucks for that piece? Wow that is over priced.
