The difference between having WiFi or not on the motherboard

Connection method and cost

The motherboards with WiFi function have built-in WiFi modules. Users don't need to purchase and install independent WiFi network cards. Compared with those without WiFi function, they are 60 to 80 yuan more expensive, providing a more concise and integrated solution.

Expansion Capability and Slot Usage

Motherboards with built-in WiFi have WiFi chips integrated within, thus not occupying PCIE slots. Choosing a motherboard with WiFi function can effectively save slots, leaving more space for other expansions and providing better expansion capability.

Bluetooth function is compatible with the device.

The mainboard with WiFi usually comes with a built-in Bluetooth module, which can connect Bluetooth keyboards, mice, headphones, etc., saving costs.

The motherboards with WiFi function have significant advantages in connection methods, expandability and Bluetooth functions. Although the cost is slightly higher, from the perspective of overall user experience and expandability, these additional expenses are justified.
