HI

 

I am looking for MB with built-in Wireless chip and Bluetooth 

 

Form factor mATX overclock capable

 

Will be used for gaming

 

Thanks

What chipset and socket? I'm not sure if that many boards have built in bluetooth.

You want ASUS but MSI and Gigabyte also have started giving these types of modules for the motherboard but be warned, this coming from a user of a wifi module on z77 and z87 platforms, most of them are a headache to use and are unreliable.

I've been told that I need to get Asus as well but I don't mind to use WiFi and Bluetooth PCI without big antennas

The Z77 i have has a small circular magnetic antenna that i have stuck to the back of my case and my sister's Z87 has a sort of black rectangle one that she just has on her desk.

 

Two types you might be interested in.

1. https://www.asus.com/Motherboards/Z97IPLUS/
2. https://www.asus.com/Motherboards/MAXIMUS_VII_IMPACT/

If you asked me, i think you might be better served with a wifi PCIe add on card for more reliability and range.

You should buy the M-ATX of your choice and then just get a PCIe wifi card, you will have the best of both worlds.
