Do i need a Wireless Network Card?

[SidwellEuan]

Hello people,I am looking to build a gaming pc and i would like to know if i need to buy a Wireless Network Card to use WiFi on my Computer. The Motherboard i am going to use is a Z97S SLI Krait Edition so i am not sure if it includes one like my last one did. I could use an Ethernet Cable, and i know the benefits to using one, however i am looking to use wifi.

Thank You.

This board doesn't include wireless. You're going to need to buy one separately.

 

For future reference, a lot of the boards that have it tend to have (WiFi) in their name. But if they don't, you can check by going to the specifications sheet of the particular board and scrolling down to the "Onboard LAN" section.

Nah.I would get one of those USB 2/3/3.1 wireless network adapters.You board has no on board wifi like some ATX boards have.

This $10 is great

Is there a board that supports SLI, Overclocking and Wireless (built in) that you could recomend that is fairly cheap?

Also in regards to this, if im using a wireless adapter (USB dongle) for my WiFi, do I need a wireless network card?

If you are gaming try and use a wired connection, wifi isn't great for gaming.

No.

I'd just get the wireless separately if you really need to go wireless over ethernet. Getting all those features on a good board won't be as cheap as your current pick. (Unless asrock i guess)

Nope!
