Well I'm putting together a partlist for a friend of mine (who is looking into buying a pc) and I stumbled into a problem that I never knew the answer to? I might as well tell you the mobo: http://www.asus.com/us/Motherboards/M5A99FX_PRO_R20/
THe problem is that he doesn't have a wired connection in his room and needs a wireless card. This is a problem because the only pci 1x slot will be covered by the gpu? MY question is can I move the gpu to the next available pci-e slot? Would there be a performance hit because of this setup? Btw I know he can get a usb wireless adapter but I've seen shaky reviews and I personally have a pci-e 1x card that works extremely well.
