Cable advice

[naut]

Hi all, I am building a trashcan build, mine is alittle different than the small ones I am using a 6770K, and a full size ATX asus z170 pro gaming, 32gb ram, water cooling, etc.
This will be all stainless steel and little aluminum for fan support.
My question:

I am looking for a pcie to mini pcie cable for wireless ac. I know they sell boards that will do it but I really need a cable to fit my mod. has anyone come across this?

I couldn't find such a thing either in a few minutes of searching (I found the opposite, a miniPCIe to PCIe 1x slot adapter). What you could probably do is use one of the PCIe to mini PCIe boards such as this one:

along with a readily-available mini PCIe extender cable such as this one:

Thanks for looking,
I might have to go that route...
I am hoping I don't have to go
1.pcie ribbon
2.pcie card
3.mini pcie
4.wifi/BT card
5.antennas
It be so much easier to remote mount a mini pcie card with a direct pcie cable
I don't have that much room or a way to mount...yet.
I will share more when all the parts show up and I have a better sense of the room I do have left.
