[SOLVED] Is there an m.2 wifi card slot on my motherboard?

[Minti]

Hello all, I have a Z390 gaming sli rev 1 mobo and was wondering if I could put a m.2 wifi card, if so where do I plug in the cords that connect to it?
Thanks

M.2 slots will accept about whatever you want to install in them. The M.2 specification is just a hardware spec.

It appears, however, that your mobo does not have the correct connectors in the I/O shield for WiFi antenna connections so you would need something similar to this to make it work:

I'm not reccomending that specific brand. It's just an example of the hardware you need.

Here's a video also but it uses connectors in the I/O shield that you don't have:
