Hi,
I just installes wireless internet on my new PC (this was quite an advantage, I have a thread about that in the network forum), and I only had one PCI slot free on my motherboard. that free PCI slot is right under the graphics card (Sapphire ATI Radeon HD 4870) , so the installed wireless LAN card is now RIGHT UNDER the graphics card and covering about one fourth of its fan.
Should this be a problem or become a problem somehow? There is absolutely no other way on my motherboard to install these items, the GPU is on the only spot where it can go and like I said, there was only one regular PCI left that'free, all the other PCI's are PCIe slots.
Could this cuase damage to the graphics card and/or the wireless PCI LAN card?
Thanks in advance,
Lars
