Sorry for lame question, what is that mPCIe good for except WiFi card?
Got to give credit to Asus, the motherboards look amazing, love the subtle LED's of the big motherboard.
Boards look sexy!
I think WiFi is what it's there for, there aren't many things that shrink down to a card that small, perhaps a TV card could, but the benefit over a USB stick solution is questionable and a full size card would be better. SSDs use mSATA and most other cards are full slot for a reason.Quote:
