The motherboard is fine, the wifi is a bit difficult to install and there's no usb c 3.1 slot, so usb c on the front of a recent case may not work, classic USB does.
In fact, I was thinking of getting a motherboard with wifi, because I thought ... it would not work well.
And well! think again, because this product I recommend if you want to have both wifi and bluetooth on your computer. What's more, the design of the motherboard is just incredible.
