Is this wifi capable?

[bengelarse]

Hello everyone! I am a novice on motherboards and I have through other threads decided that I'm going to buy the ASRock - Z370 Extreme4 ATX LGA1151 Motherboard. I do not know though if it is capable of wifi or not, I have been trying to look it up but can't seem to find anything. Does anyone know?

Thanks in advance,

Bengelarse

That model has a special spot where a WIFI card could plug in, but it is not sold with the WIFI installed. You would have to buy a wifi card that would fit in the special slot or a standard PCIe WIFI card.

Thanks for the help! Do you perhaps have a suggestion for what wifi-card I might buy? I have optical fiber connection at my house, capable of 40 mbit/s.

Thanks for the help!

Most any WIFI card will handle 40Mbit. For desktops, I recommend using powerline networking over WIFI if you can't use an ethernet cable. If you are unfamiliar with powerline networking read this -- https://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/network-switch-guide,4047.html
