Strix Motherboard Replacement

[TomPot]

Hey y’all,

I’m trying to figure out a mobo for my next build but was struggling to find one that suited my needs. The rog strix B550-A gaming (link below) fits most of my needs, (good io; ryzen 5000 compatible; ATX; white, silver and black color scheme; won’t bottleneck high-end parts), yet it doesn’t have built-in wireless WiFi. Do y’all have any recommendations for a board that fits these requirements that is a good replacement? Thanks!

There are a decent number of boards that fit these requirements, though it's not a bad idea to just buy a good wifi card and add it to that strix board you found.

 

That said, here's a couple boards that would work:

ASRock X570 Steel Legend WiFi AX

NZXT N7 B550

ASRock X570 Taichi

Gigabyte B550 Vision D-P

 

All of those boards are a lot more expensive than that Strix board you found, so it still might be more price effective to just buy a WiFi card to install in that board.

For me, price isn’t a big worry. I’m already using a gigabyte vision card, so the motherboard would look either really good or really bad with it, but that’s just me. I’ll look into these, thanks!

Also, in the future, I wouldn’t recommend asrock boards to people. They’re normally cheaply made and a waste of money. But thanks for recommending anyways!
