My rig: http://

In the last 3 years Ive put in a Corsair 600w Bronze psu, a r9 380x gpu, 2x3 tb hdds, and an 8gb ram stick.

Im replacing my matx board, processor and ram. The 3 choices for boards I've narrowed down to is:

Now, my desktop is not close to my router, so wifi is my only solution. However, I cant find how my rig connects through wifi. I dont see any wifi card or adapter inside the pc, so I'm wondering how I currently get wifi, and if I will have to purchase a seperate part when I get a new mobo. Please help a noob!!

None of those motherboards have WiFi capability.

If you really, really need WiFi, and absolutely cannot do a wired connection, purchase an adapter.

Angelica boards have a mini PCI-E socket, and an internal wireless card, like those found in laptops

So that's why you're getting Wi-Fi

For your new mobo, you can just get an USB adapter, or a longer network cable, if you're going to play online games :)

So, I did not see any card of any sort on my mobo. Is it possible to detach a card that could be in my current rig, and somply attach it to the new mobo? Or should I just get one of those 15 buck usb wifi connectors?
