Hello, i got a question, i bought a pre-build pc (tg01-0023w) that comes with a wifi card model: rtl8821ce i want to know if i can use that same card in other motherboard, if so which kind of connector in looking for?

@Leon1201 -- take a look at the new motherboard. Either the WiFi adapter is a small square item (think of the size of a box that will hold a $0.25 coin) embedded on the motherboard, or it will have an add-in PCI-e WiFi-capable card, probably with an external antenna on the "spine" of the card. Either WiFi adapter is removable, and might be compatible with some other motherboard.

Hi

There is no doubt here
you say you have this exact model?

HP Pavilion Gaming - TG01-0023w

so :

Wireless

Realtek Wi-Fi 5 (1x1) and Bluetooth® 4.2 combo

One M.2 socket 1, key A (for WLAN )

if you want to use it in another computer, therefore, you need the same M2 connector
