this part should work fine but I'm worried about the other end of the rise because it's clearly not designed for the layout in my laptop
-
I could snap off lots of plastic to try and make room out the front of the laptop but I think there'll be electronics in the way
-
probably safer to remove the usb port and solder it on with some wire from the outside
-
actually it would be cool as fuck to cannibalize one of the builtin usb3.0 ports and repurpose it as a eGPU connector
-
but that's also dangerous and hard to do and I'd end up with only three usb ports left
