Wireless PC Card Help

[lRhyss]

Okay so I've moved to a new house (Woo! Let's all have a party)!

However, a problem has quickly arisen with my PC. I need to fit a wireless card as I can't have the router in my room, however after inspecting my PC I've found that it doesn't look like theres room because it will be blocking the airflow from my GPU. However, I have a case fan pulling air away from my GPU so I was wondering:

A) Would a wireless card fit in here fine? If so, could you guys please link me to a reliable one? If not, could you recommend something else? Moving the router to my room is not an option at all, sadly.

B) Would the airflow be okay if I fitted a wireless card?

Ignore the dust, I've just got rid of that

Why not go for a USB adapter? They can be just as fast if you get an AC one and have a USB 3 port.

Yeah? Just get a USB Wireless Adapter to connect to a WiFi using a normal PC that doesn't have bluetooth. Standard really.

I really didn't want to go this route as I hate them bloody things, so would you not recommend fitting one here?

If you can fit one in there it isn't going to make a massive difference to your temps as long as you have adequate case cooling.

Hard to tell if there's enough room there, would definitely be a tight fit.

No need to spend £30 on one, 300Mbps should be plenty: http://www.amazon.co.uk/TP-Link-TL-W...=wireless+card

It should fit, I', just worried about the fan blocking situation, going to rework my heat sync and case cooling though so my side case fan blows onto the GPU and the wireless card

Things like this always seem to happen to you but - yeah try a wireless card or something not really too good with routers but I have like 3 in my house so can always have signal.
