Question Do I need a wireless adapter for my motherboard for internet?

[kodak9339]

Hey, I was wondering if you need a wifi adapter or some sort to put into your motherboard, i'm going to build my first computer very soon. The motherboard I will be getting is Asus Strix Z390-H and I was planning to get an ASUS PCE-N15 Wireless N PCIe Adaptor.
Does this motherboard come with wifi installed and if not, what are the best adapters?

Thankyou!

If you can connect to internet with ethernet cable, then wifi adapter is not necessary. Wired connection has better bandwidth and better stability than wifi.

Asus Strix Z390-H doesn't have integrated wifi. So if you absolutely need it, then you'd have to get wifi adapter.

That's easy to find https://www.asus.com/Motherboards/ROG-STRIX-Z390-H-GAMING/specifications/ no, it doesn't have a WiFi adapter, only wired NIC. You'll have to use that one or a USB WiFi adapter.

The mainboard in question has no built in WiFi capabilities...

So, if not close enough to use a wired connection to your router (preferred method), wireless is next best.

If you get the Asus Strix Z390-E, it does have an integrated wifi on the motherboard, thus you wont need a discrete wifi card.

Ah okay, thanks for the reply! I will have to get that Wifi adapter then as cable connection isn't ideal for, because the wifi modem is a long stretch away from my room.

Yeah I'll go with the Wifi adapter then. Thankyou for clarifying!

Hm that's interesting, but I'll stick with the Z390-H because of the red and black theme, thankyou for the reply!
