Hello everyone.

I'm planning a pc build with a 5600x and pairing it with a 3060. Most of the b550 motherboards available to me (at a reasonable price) are all without wifi and the x570s... yea they hurt the bank account.

My motherboard supports an M.2 Key E wifi module. Was just hoping if someone could explain to me what this is and what module (specific models appreciated) that I should get? Also do wifi 5/6 matter if I'm only doing general tasks and occasional gaming. I can get the same model of mb with wifi for an extra 40 AUD so was just wondering if I should just get that instead.

Thanks
