Bluetooth on desktop pc

[jdcranke07]

Is it possible to get an internal desktop bluetooth card that does not have wifi with it? Or are there only USB adapters? And I'm pretty sure that the Asus PCE-AC68 wifi adapter does not have bluetooth capability either, correct? Can't find anything that gives me a solid answer for either.

To add Bluetooth to your system you have to go the USB route, if I'm not mistaken.
Can't say that I've seen any internal cards that offer that functionality.
You are correct in assuming that the Asus device only offers wifi.

Would having a case like the Corsair 900D interfere with signal response if I use a bluetooth gaming controller? I've read that having a fully metal case could possibly mess with the signal. By the way, sorry for not mentioning it beforehand, but my end game is to pair a PS4 controller up to my PC via bluetooth and using DS4Windows to do it.

bluetooth has a limited range by design. the USB adaptors fit this short range design sensibility perfectly.
just make sure you get one based on the proper chip, and compatible with the needed bluetooth stack.
IDK about the PS4 but I had to do some homework to get the right adaptor for the PS3 controller.

I'll do some more looking and see how it turns out then. Thanks for the info.
