Innovative PCIe secure method

 The structure of a harbour is critical for surrounding residents. The greater quantity & size of ships can be docked in the harbour, the more profit can be earned by the surrounding residents. Same rule apply for PCIe slot.
 PCIe slot is the harbour, GPU is the big ship. If thePCIe slot capable to insert greater quantity & size of GPU, the more performance can be achieved by the PC. Size & number ofPCIe slot could limiting your PC performance. Beside that, latest GPU become more advance then last year but with the cost of bigger & thicker size. 
  However, Amakusa develop an innovative method to realese the limitation from the traditional design.

 It is The Hangman.

 The old schoolPCIe slot usually have around 7 slots on a mid-tower case. It is a problem when your ATX motherboard have above 7 slots, or maybe It will be a bit awkward when insert a 2.7 slot thickness GPU.
 The Hangman can freely adjust the locker to adapt the height of the GPU without calculate how many slot will be used. Except that, motherboard is the only PC part that limiting the quantity of GPU when using a The Hangman. Number of PCIe card will be limit by the available PCIe slot on the motherboard instead of the PC case when the case have The Hangman features.

 The secure method of commonPCIe slot was using a screw to clip and holding the GPU. These only generate a force from right to left that like squeezing the GPU to stick & stay inside thePCIe lanes on motherboard.
 However, The Hangman is using the method of slide & screw the locker a bit higher then the required height between PCIe lanes on motherboard and the GPU.

These will slightly hanging the GPU higher, and creating a force of pushing up the GPU to prevent it from fall down. The pushing force will be useful when a heavy GPU was installed.
 The Hangman is an innovative method. The benefit include allow more PCIe card be install, and more reliable for support heavier GPU.
 Currently, AMAKUSA's Dokuro is only PC case in the world with The Hangman features.
