It's worth looking if there is a cheaper motherboard that doesn't have WIFI built in and then buying a WIFI card.

Do you have any suggestions? I don't know anything about motherboards...

I wouldn’t bother with a motherboard until you get the new cpu as it’ll just be sitting around waiting, and I wouldn’t recommend a K series processor on a chipset which can’t overclock.

Either get Z570 and the 11700k, or B560 and a regular 11700

First I would get more ram. 8gb is the bare minimum these days. 16gb of ram in dual channel even at the relatively low speeds of locked skylake at (I think they top out at 2400/2666mhz) would be a pretty big performance increase ram wise.

Note that until you have a newer platform the 3600mhz speed won’t be a thing.

 

tldr ram first, cpu and motherboard later 

 

Ok, thanks for the help
