Daisy Chaining PCI-E Riser

Hey all,

Due to a combination of my hardware motherboard, I am planning to move my PCI-E Wifi card from top PCI-E slot to the very bottom of the case (in the space between the bottom of the mobo and my PSU), so to open up the option of SLI'ing cards that comes with backplate. Currently I cannot do this due to the fact that my Wifi card has a heatsink and conflicts with a backplated GPU, and my bottom PCI-E slot on my mobo is, bizarrely, a Northbridge slot, so I cannot use that slot if I want to SLI.

I am planning to use something similar to this:
PCI-E Riser

Now, the cable in the picture isn't long enough to extend from all the way to the top of the mobo to the bottom of the case, I need to daisy chain two of these risers to move the Wifi card to the correct position.

My question is, would there be any problems in doing that? apart from possible loose connection?

Thanks!
