M.2 network-card

[3NMa]

I plan on buying one of these http://www.asrock.com/mb/Intel/Z270 Extreme4/#Specification. Bc it it doesn't have any onboard wifi, I want a m.2 wifi card to put with the rear I/O. What should I buy?

This is a consistent performer. http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/wireless-products/dual-band-wireless-ac-7265.html

 

I generally advise a normal PCIe card though for external antennae, it helps a lot.

 

I have this (or a similar model), and it is great: https://www.amazon.ca/Gigabyte-Bluetooth-Expansion-Components-GC-WB867D-I/dp/B00HF8K0O6

You're going to need a find some antennas and a way to route them out of the case if you get an M.2 Wi-Fi card. I would recommend either a PCIe slot one or a USB 3.0 one to avoid this issue.
