Question 1

Intel Network 6235AN.HMWWB Centrino WiFi Card Advanced-N 6235 Dual Band Bluetooth Retail.
Can I insert this card to get WI-FI and Bluetooth in my computer?

Accepted Answer

If I remember correctly, you will need a PCIe compatible wireless card because the PCI slot is blocked by the fan on the graphics card. I would have to check to be completely sure. You could look up a picture of the motherboard online; whichever slot (PCI or PCIe) is farthest from the graphics card is the one available.

Question 2

I purchased an Avatar Desktop PC Gaming FX8366 from Newegg a couple of years ago.  It is closing in on the time for an upgrade to the graphics card.

I am looking at getting the Zotac ZT-90503 GTX 980TI to install in this system.  The motherboard should be ok and not bottleneck the card.  Also the power system at 650 should also be ok.  Might be a close fit on the case size.

My question:  Any reason that that GTX 980Ti won't work as a viable upgrade with the Avatar F38366 (aka Ostrog) that I might be overlooking?

Appreciate the assistance.

I took out the video card that came with the rig and bought a 980 card.  Its a little bit snug but if you take your time and  be gentle, it fits perfectly.  It's been running flawlessly ever since.

... only wish the mother board has more slots for memory sticks.  .. I just don't want the hassle of changing mother board.
