Hey. I'm in dire need of a wifi adapter for my PC (where I'm going an Ethernet cable isn't viable). I have a slot available for an M.2 Key E wifi adapter on my motherboard (ASRock z390 pro4) but the issue is my rtx 2080 is in my no.1 PCI-e slot, and my m.2 key e resides below that. So my GPU will be butting closely up to the wifi adapter I'm looking at, should I buy thermal pads to keep some heat off of it, or will it be okay?

From the list, I prefer spending $35 over $180.
