Okay, I've decided to make the best of a crap computer I got on a budget. I have all the parts I want listed, but I have a spare PCI (Just PCI, not PCI-e... Yes, the board inside is that old...) port that needs filling.

I've got:

The sole AGP port goes to a video card.
1 PCI port is going to an additional cooling fan.
Another PCI port is going to a crappy WiFi card.
...and the one empty one.

Can anyone think of something zany/useful I could use this hole in the back of my computer for?

Well, I have 4 already, but I guess 8 wouldn't be too bad. 4x USB joypads + slightly powerful PC + MAME/Lemming Ball Z/Some other single-screen 4P game = winz.
