How do I get a discrete wireless access as my motherboard's wireless is to slow? My Graphics card takes up both expansion slots.

Have you thought about trying a USB wireless adapter? Something like this? TP-LINK model# TL-WN722N (I have not tried it, but it goes for about $15 and gets pretty good reviews)

It is not according to crucials website. The msata/PCI express slot is prepopulated with the WiFi card.

As far as I know it doesn't not ship with the capability. Expansion wise this computer is limited thus a USB wireless option may have to be utilised.

The Gigabyte GA-H87N-WIFI has one PCI-e v3.0 card slot. I had a graphics card in there which worked OK, but it was slower than the HD4600 on-chip Intel Graphics, so i removed it. Not familiar with the PCI card you referenced.

Your card get's it power through the motherboard via pci express 2.0. Not seperate power cords from the power supply.

The brilliant thing about computers is all the connection ports are standard. By googling the card you have, I can tell it's a dual antenna mini-pci-e card. Most modern laptops will accept this unless it boast extra features like 3g or 4g networking. My laptop didn't have that but I wanted bluetooth and try out the 5Ghz band. I tell ya, bluetooth is awesome for quick transfers from a cell phone. I run windows 8 as well, if you do get it, don't forget to uninstall the drivers for the old one. Helps keep things looking normal.

You can upgrade the memory. The manufacturer stated maximum is 16GB (2x8GB SODIMM).The GPU is part of the CPU, which is soldered to the main board. Neither the CPU or the GPU can be upgraded.The MintBox 2 already comes with a wireless card. It supports 2.4GHz 802.11b/g/n and Bluetooth 3.0. The wireless card is a half-height Mini PCIe card that can be replaced with a different wireless card (such as one with 802.11ac or Bluetooth 4.0).

Use another computer to download the wireless drivers (and the rest of the drivers while you're at it). Transfer them over with a flash drive, and install them.

Hi I could not find anything on your PC as far as what open ports are available to add cards use this site to compare what you have available and match it with the wireless card http://networking.ringofsaturn.com/PC/slottypes.php. It may be a PCI-e 16 or a pci-e 1

I think it's possible to plug a mid-range graphics card like the nVidia geForce GT6xx series into the PCI slot. Don't know what kind of graphics card you have, but this unit is limited by its 300w power supply.

I ordered this card from Newegg.com and installed it by watching a youtube video. 1 x Intel 7260HMW IEEE 802.11AC, dual-band, 2x2 Wi-Fi plus Bluetooth 4.0 Mini PCI Express combo Adapter - 867 . It solved the problem.

You Are correct. I bought a USB wireless adaptor. The performance of this thing is well worth that little inconvenience. Very fast!

I'm not sure if this will work with your specific rig, but I haven't ha an easy time with this wifi card. I was having problems with the previous one and I figured this would solve the problem and it hasn't. I'd strongly consider the intel equivalent, although it's more money I think it's more compatible with routers and computers hardware and software. I could be completely wrong and your computer is different from mine. I have an Asus laptop with high end graphics and an i7. If post on a forum if someone hasn't already answered your question.

I have two gtx 770 FTWs that are tight if that helps. Not sure about network card but it shouldn't be a problem because of how small they are.

No, but u can buy a mpcie wlan card but be advised it shares the bandwith with the second pcie x8 i think.

No, you would have to buy and add a wireless network card. This can be a PCI ( internal ) or USB ( external ) type of wireless network card

Or... you could install wireless through a USB adapter.. don't actually have to install it to PCI-E. And they can be just as good as internal wireless cards
