Thus I wondered, if anyone tried out a ASRock Q1900M board [1] with a Celeron J1900 four-core onboard CPU (looks like the next generation of the J1800).
Since the board only has PCIe slots I would need a PCIe to PCI adapter. Does anyone know, if there are any pitfalls in using the 5I20 card with such an adapter (except for mounting problems)?
