GA-X99-UD4 (rev. 1.0) - M2 Wifi Card
« on: October 03, 2015, 03:53:35 pm »
Hi,

I currently have the following Motherboard:

Gigabyte: GA-X99-UD4 (rev. 1.0)

I would like to put a M2 Wifi Card in there - however there are different types. I am trying to determine what specs it uses exactly.

Can you give me the exact specification I need to make sure it fits the slot and I can screw it in properly?

Would the following card fit ?

Thanks,

Ward.

By what the book says Page 30 it will take any M2-WIFI (M.2 Socket 1 Connector) You can insert an M.2 Wi-Fi module into this connector. So as long it is a M2 Type card you should be fine.
