I’m looking to upgrade my PC, and hoped to utilize integrated motherboard Wi-Fi. I know many of you will prefer ethernet, but unfortunately that isn’t an option for me.

I’ve read (and experienced) issues with Realtek Wi-Fi chipsets in the past, and heard that the Intel Wi-Fi chipset had better compatibility. But I’m struggling to find many options. Some boards don’t seem to specify (unless I’m misreading the specifications on their websites). And some, like Gigabyte, supported Intel Wi-Fi with some revisions but no longer do with the most recent. (see Gigabyte B650 Gaming X AX, v1.0-1.2 use Intel Wi-Fi.

I’m not seeing stores specify the revision being sold, otherwise I’d consider that board.

Does anyone have recommendations on a good AM5 motherboard whose Wi-Fi plays well with Linux? Or do you all use any other solutions like Wi-Fi adapters? Also I’m planning on running Pop! OS.
