Check compatibility with your motherboard model before purchasing the Intel® Wireless-AC 9560.
I've installed a Samsung 970 Evo Plus 1 TB M.2-2280 NVME SSD into my Gigabyte B550 Aorus Elite V2 (rev. 1.0). I'm checking the motherboard info at https://www.gigabyte.com/Motherboard/B55...v-10/sp#sp to see if it supports Intel® Wireless-AC 9560. The product page mentions it uses minipcie, but I need confirmation whether it's compatible with my board. Thanks for helping!
The motherboard features two M.2 connectors and three PCI-E slots. It lacks miniPCIe ports. If your wireless card uses M.2, it should fit into the second M.2 slot. Most wireless cards are designed for miniPCIe. You might be choosing a specific model because it's available in M.2 format. For miniPCIe cards, you can use adapters like the ones listed—such as the Express adapter shown here or the Fenvi express adapter—to connect to the second M.2 slot while keeping your SSD compatible.
