Well OK, but that's a whole PC, not just one card?


Trust me, it smells. Do you smoke? If you do, you aren't aware how
unpleasant the residual smell is to non-smokers.


Nope; and certainly I hate 2nd-hand smoke as much as anybody! Just
surprised that a single PC card contained within a PC (albeit with fan)
would stink a whole room out; and personally would think it worth trying
out before going any further...

I have an occasional visitor who is a smoker, and even if he doesn't
smoke in the house, I can smell the tobacco residue for a good couple of
hours after he leaves.

Tobacco residue has a very persistent odour. If someone has smoked in a
hotel room, the smell persists for days, unless the hotel use the
specialist products (whatever they are) to clear the whiff.
