Hey folks, I'm in Canada and I'm considering upgrading my PC. Right now, my setup includes an RTX 5070, an Intel i7-12700KF, and 16GB of DDR4 RAM. I've got an AIO cooler from Mars Gaming, though I'm not specifically sure which model it is—it's a 240mm. I'm also on the lookout for a new motherboard that comes with Wi-Fi. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Do you know if your current motherboard is mATX or ATX sized? Knowing this will help in choosing a new one if you decide to change it out!

That looks like a good option, thanks for the suggestion!
Here are a few things to consider:
1. Do you have an SSD? If not, that should be your first upgrade; they're a game-changer for loading times.
2. Upgrading your RAM to a 2x16GB kit of DDR4-3200 would help with performance too.
3. If you just want Wi-Fi, a cheap PCIe Wi-Fi adapter will save you from needing an entirely new motherboard.
Your budget will also impact additional upgrades!
I actually have a Samsung 990 Evo Plus that's brand new. Thanks for the tips!
Awesome! Having an SSD will really help your load times. Good luck with the upgrades!
My current motherboard is an Asus Prime H510M-E.
