Install tips:
If you’re location will be working this server to it’s maximum potential, water cooling is optional.
It is installed above the processor in place of the air cooling fins and brings cool water in and warm water out through the PCIe C5 slot.
So, clearly, a PCIe adapter will not also fit in the C5 slot.
