I'm about to buy parts for my pc that i'm going to build and i'm wondering if these two parts are compatible. I know that they come from the same brand, but what i want to know is does my motherboard already have the WiFi Bluetooth functions, because i will mostly be using the pc on WiFi. If it doesn't have the function then is the card compatible with it? I'm not so sure since i cant really tell.

*EDIT* Could you also explain it to me if you find the answer?
 
Solution
Yes you can use it in a larger PCIE slot.

1 x PCI Express x16 slot, running at x4 (PCIEX4)

Your other slot ^

No your motherboard isn't wireless the add-on card is designed to work Gigabyte motherboards and they're compatible together. You can verify it your self on partpicker.

Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-H170M-D3H Micro ATX LGA1151 Motherboard ($91.89 @ OutletPC)
Wireless Network Adapter: Gigabyte GC-WB867D-I 802.11a/b/g/n/ac PCI-Express x1 Wi-Fi Adapter ($29.99 @ SuperBiiz)

Total: $121.88

Just use the 2nd PCI-E 16 slot.
