Question RE: Gigabyte GA-MA770-UD3

[orindaz]

I have a board with two PCI slots that I have never been able to find anything to use in. Everytime I google it I get switched over to PCIe expansion cards and stuff. I'd like actual for-real suggestions (with links) of cards or whatever that I can use in PCI slots.

Some wireless adapters, old school sound cards/adapters etc.
Why do you want PCI cards? They were basically phased out a long time ago.

I have two empty PCI slots doing nothing, when they could be filled with expansion cards (or whatever), and maybe doing something. Why would I not want to take advantage of an opportunity? So far as I know, leaving the PCI slots unused is of zero benefit to me.

Far as I can tell filling them would serve no benefit either, just more cards blocking airflow and drawing power.
Sure you could find a few cards to fill them, but those can more readily be found in PCIe format, leaving you back at square one with unused slots.
