Hello all,

I'm looking to get the wireless adapter for the Vive which requires an available PCI-e slot, though my motherboard only has one and I'm using it for my GPU. What can I do that doesn't involve getting a new motherboard?

Thanks,

Hunter

Oh sorry completely misread that, try looking for a pci-e riser/splitter although I'm not sure how it will affect your latency with the vive and gpu

The Vive's adapter isn't for WiFi, it's specific to the Vive & is for video/audio transmission from the PC to the VR headset. It is PCI-e only.
