It does, in fact, fit...
Tl;Dr - If you're reading this review, you already know if you need it. Get it, it works fine.What people don't seem to realise is that there's some pretty wide engineering tolerances in computer case making, especially in cheaper cases. Computer motherboards have to be incredibly precise, and so do PCI(and e) cards. But the card only has to match the back of the motherboard for it to fit, (which it does, as it matches mine).People are putting these things in their wonky case, and then blaming the card for not fitting. Unless, of course, they're getting a wonky PCI bracket. Which I highly doubt, since that's the simplest part of the unit to make.If you're struggling to make it fit, then you need to bend the back of your case a little bit. While I struggle to call this "normal", it is fairly standard.You're here because you need more USB ports on your PC. This is a perfectly fine solution, for a perfectly reasonable (£35.99 at time of my purchase), price. I'd recommend you get it.

Broke within 2 weeks
Doesn't fit correctly in my PC case, had to tilt it slightly out of the slot to screw it into my PC case. It worked for a few days, but then it was intermittent. I'd have to restart to try and get any of the USB devices plugged in to work. Now, it's just gone. Getting nothing from any of the devices plugged in. Tried reseating it in the slot and it just won't work at all.Awful, shoddy device. Did not fit correctly and then broke completely within two weeks. Avoid.(Edited review after 12 days)Original 3 Star Review:Other reviews have pointed out this item doesn't fit correctly in the case, which I have to agree with. When inserted into the PCIe port correctly, the screw holes do not line up with the ones in my PC's case. However, tilting the card slightly out of the PCIe port to line up the holes has worked for me. It's screwed in and devices are working as normal when plugged in. It's slightly worrying that it's tilted out of the socket, and I expect it may not maintain a good connection. But it's working for now. I can't really recommend this expansion card because of this.

Breful of sizing!
Ihave no complaints about the electronic part and ease of installation.of the item. Hoever, because of the vertical alignment of the ports I found it difficult to plug in most usb sticks etc. I had to fiddle and bend the edges of the slots in my particular case toenable use. I do not now if other cases have wider slots. Prospective users might well baulk at doing this to theit PC. My own case came out of a skip (its a home build!) so I had no reservations. If you can metal bend or hack your PC case, no problems, but the three star rating is because the aforementioned problems if you cannot, something I suspect would apply o most users.

Lots of ports and wide compatibility
I had problems getting this to work properly and had a variety of failures and inconsistent behaviour. I returned for a refund and then found that one of my USB cables (which was new) was faulty and that might well have accounted for the problems I encountered with the expansion card. On paper it was ideal and it might well have turned out that way had the new USB cable been fault free.

Worked good, fixed my HP reverb G2 7-14 error
Worked fine, I used this to fix the HP reverb G2 7-14 errors with great success so far.few issues involving driver install thanks to my pc having no disc drive.After a Google I found the driver I needed. Only reason I'm giving 4 stars is the lack of information on how to find the correct driver if you can't use the disc included.
