Cheaper and improved

Alternatively for some extra looks an NZXT H5 with some white fans but that is a bit of a price hike

Also everything in these (aka yours too) are in USD not CAD

in CAD its a little more like this

Know you will be paying the white tax. They are nearly universally more expensive

[AlexithinkSR]

a white power supply is pointless because it will be covered anyway

 

also if you REALLY want a white motherboard https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/product/zFzhP6/asrock-b650-pro-rs-atx-am5-motherboard-b650-pro-rs

Why does that matter tho?

What significance does it hold?

You see there is this thing many to most houses have called ethernet sockets

In the router goes and boom ethernet access in every room via a neat little hole in the wall much like a power outlet

most =/= all, why not account for people who don't have them

Why account for smt that you cant know exists or is asked for?Should doctors perscribe medicine that works for what they know a patient has or account for the 10s of diseases that the patient could potentially have and is not yet diagnosed with?
To circle back to the OG post to stay on topic casue this rant about houses having ethernet sockets and wifi being needless unless asked for has been going on for a while

OP originally chose a board without wifi, thus they most likely (almost certainly) have ethernet so wifi is a needless expense on top of the white tax so again it holds no value until OP says "Btw I want wifi"
