The very best? Looking to empty your pockets or...

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I need? ATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad

Do you need A/D WiFi or would you need only A/C?

Just one that "prefers" 5GHz wi-fi

Have you checked out pcpartpicker and compared models you like against each other?

Yes but I don't know what any of the protocol stuff means so this is why I am asking on here

They all start with 802.11, and the best ones have 802.11AC, so look for ones with that. Did you have some in mind to compare? If you link specific models I can tell you the features to look out for.

I instead am going o get a motherboard with Wi-Fi built-in as the price saving difference (to get a good wi-fi card) won't be much.

 

Thanks for your help!
