    Thought some may be interested in some pics of this overall it's good quality not the best although it is a USB only PCIe format so it narrows down which cards can be used there is an onboard USB minus the socket checked and it has 5v etc so should work although it's in parallel with the PCIe USB so would need hub circuitry to be of any use

    The gps unit is picked up in bios but haven't tried with an antenna yet The circuit bottom right I presume is the hardware switch ?

    Ideally I'd like to have gps Bluetooth and an extra wifi any ideas ? I'd like it to be as factory as possible
