You're facing a common challenge when upgrading your PC. The 3070 cooler indeed blocks the PCIe Gen3 ×1 slot, and with only four PCIe interfaces available, you're limited. Your case's design might require creative solutions—perhaps using a PCIe expansion card or a different cooler layout. Have you considered checking for alternative slots or exploring aftermarket options?
Also don’t forget your IO shield. Just use a USB version if you want Wi-Fi.
Thank you. USB ports are just as effective as PCIe connections, but PCIe offers better performance. For the IO Shield, it’s a refurbished motherboard, so it won’t work with an IO Shield. Online advice suggested it doesn’t really matter.
Does it refer to an Ethernet link? I was advised by my parents that I can't lay an Ethernet cable upstairs since my bedroom is on the opposite side of the house from the router. The budget seems to be about £30 ($40), and I'm in the UK, so buying from Amazon would make sense.
I would choose this method first instead of using USB Wi-Fi. https://a.co/d/0bGzRHY
