Hi,

My PCI port sits right next to my PCI-E port meaning that my GPU is not getting the space it needs to be cooler.

Are there any alternatives? I have 30MB broadband so USB would be useless.

What motherboard do you have? If you have a spare PCI-E slot you could get this: http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=NW-112-EX&groupid=46&catid=1597&subcat=

Also, a USB dongle would still work as good as PCI/PCI-E (although they don't usually last as long). If you're worried the wireless might bottleneck your broadband speed, the slowest wireless standard G is 54mb, which is faster then 30mb, but then again it depends on the wireless your router is using, how many devices are connected to the wireless and the quality of the signal your PC recieves.

Another alternative is to go for homeplugs, which I find are more stable over wireless.
