adding pcie wifi adapter will it affect gpu

hi,
i am new here
i recently build a pc with :


motherboard : asus Prime x570-p (PCIE 4.0)
gpu : radeon asus rog rx 5500xt 8gb (PCIE 4.0)

cpu : ryzen 7 3700x

nvme m.2 XPG 1TB 2280

 

i am planing to buy wifi adapter with pcie : Asus PCE-AX58BT 802.11ac AX3000 Dual-Band PCI-e

my concerns  is will my gpu x16 lanes pcie 4.0 will be affected if i put this wifi adapter to my pcie ?

 

because the cpu have 24 lanes
4 lanes reserved to the motherboard 
16 lanes for gpu
m.2 4 lanes

 

i dont want my gpu performance to be affected
if this will affect my gpu performance i will purchase wifi usb adapter instead 

 

can you advise please ?

No x4 lanes for the most part are provided by the mobo

On that motherboard it will run gpu at 16x pci 4.0, equal to 2 16x pci 3.0 slots used by rtx titan.  Twice bandwidth of titan card, rx5500xt needs nowhere near even half that.

Other x570 might switch 16x slot to 8x when second card is installed, still won't bottleneck gpu, maybe bottleneck of 3080  or big navi, but not any current gen cards.
