Best location seems to be at the end of the card rather than the middle.
Using a 40mm fan.
Thank you :-)

Two questions (and sorry in advance if this has been answered before):

1) With the new ethernet drivers for AmigaOS the inbuilt ethernetports works. Does it change anything in your dual setup to remove the PCIEX1ethernetcard?
2) Does this dual setup let you also boot MorphOS?

1) Removing the pciex1 Ethernet card allows the pciex1 graphics card to work in either of the regular pciex1 slots with no issues.
Did not try the PCI-E x1/Xorro slot. Just started using a usb Ethernet for linux https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B013G ... UTF8&psc=1

2) Morphos will not currently boot .

Does the built in ethernet in the X5000 not work with the latest kernel 4.19?

Been away from the forum for a while so sorry in advance if this already have been covered.

NO, the onboard X5000 ethernet adapter does not work. Somehow it did work on early linux versions if i recall correctly but somewhere along the way it broke.

At this point i am using a USB Wifi adapter for linux and the onboard ethernet in OS4.1 FE
