Check if the Wi-Fi card fits your system configuration.
Hello, I'm checking if the Wi-Fi card you have is suitable for my PC. I've got an Intel I3 8100, MSI B360M mortar GTX 960 with 2GB RAM and 16GB storage. Please confirm compatibility.
Mortar is a small ATX model with three slots. A GTX 960 usually fits two slots, but sometimes fewer depending on the Wi-Fi card size. This could affect the fan airflow, possibly causing issues. Though I can't think of any, some Mortar boards have a dedicated eKey slot with an M.2 Wi-Fi card. If it works, you might insert that card instead to prevent airflow problems.

The board's M.2 ports are M-key style, intended for storage drives. WiFi adapters usually use A/E key configurations. For an empty PCIe slot, consider a PCIe WiFi card.
