Benefits of built-in wifi

[Guest]

Hey it could be a silly question or I maybe already know the answer but just to make sure what are the benefits of the built-in wifi on a motherboard and is there a difference between it and pci wifi card and usb wifi? Also what pci or usb wifi would you recommend?

i would choose a pci wi-fi card and what is the maker you could buy from where you live .

Only benefit is that you do not have to buy a separate card! Then the question is is the built in fast enough for your uses.

So it's only replace the lan cable nothing more? But the lan cable is better right?

Yes ethernet cable is faster and mre stable then wifi can be.

Built in wifi is better then a usb stick, but is equal to a pci-e card.
Now when technlogy changes and speeds improve, you can always remove a pci-e card and get a newer faster one.

Now if you have the ability to use wired LAN, that is always better then wifi

lan cable is faster for speed and dont have other device that will interfer on the signal like the wireless one

To utilize the wifi you will have to have wifi network where you are using the computer, the motherboard will come with Ethernet (cable) connection as well.
