So, after following a wrong lead about choosing wireless card in MSI forum, I bought an Intel AX201 NGW at Alliexpress. Upon installation it was undetected. My first thought probably the card was a junk. Later I found out that the E key M2_2 slot was PCIe.
My Mobo is MSI H510M. It clearly mentioned in the spec if M2_2 slot is for PCIe card only.
My mistake was clear for not re-reading the mobo spec before making order.
Now it's like I'm left with few options.
First option is, try selling out the card, but since CNVIo2 only work with few latest system with 10th or 11th gen processors with certain mobo, I bet it will take a while.
Second option is a question, is there yet any adapter or converter from CNVIo2 to mini PCIe or PCIe?

Edit.
I should grab an Intel AX200 instead of AX201

Thanks for the reply.
But it won't work. NGFF interface is different from CNVIO2. Intel AX201 requires adapter with CNVIO2 slot as first interface.

Been searching too. No mention about this kind of adapter. It seems unavailable yet.
I think I will use USB receiver for a while.
Will see if I can obtain an AX200 as last my option

I would suggest the AX210 instead due to future proofing, supports Wi-Fi 6e and BT5.2
