Could you please check if the motherboard i wanna buy has internal USB headers? Without the need of removing the existing usb connections ?

Yes, you got two internal USB headers. Your choice how you want to use them. :)

Awesome man! Now for another question... You are aware of the Faraday effect right? I dont mind the antennas too much, but it looks ugly and it can break if it is outside the case.. So I have thought that if I left the antennas inside the case, because there will be a lot of space, it is a big big case, there would be WiFi reception problems, dueto having a metallic 1996 case.. The front is plastic, and I will open a big hole in the side of the case to put some metacrylate transparent plastic. The other side would count with openings for a few thick plastic letters with a logo as well, I am not sure of the extent of the effect on my WiFI with the antennas insed..

 

So would the Faraday effect pose a problem to my WiFi reception with the BCM94360CD + PCI Express adapter?

If it does, I have thought of replacing the plastic letters with metal ones and using them as antennas, because they will be outside the case and so Faraday box will not occur.

What do you guys think¿?

Also guys, I found a PSU im interested, but I dont know if I should get with Semi Modular cables or with solid ones, because they offer both for the same price...

What would be the best option for the PSU cables for my motherboard? Semi modular or Solid?


By the way, I think I found a all in one solution with this adapter, that includes the USB internal module and the antennas, as well as the minipci to pci-e:

And as I reckon that is  only the adapter, I would have to buy also:

Am I doing the right thing?

Hi. Faraday's caging effect will only cage it. 

 

I don't understand how you're not going to let the antennas get out of your computer. It is normal, the antenna side must go out. 

 

PSU looks fine and Wireless stuff looks fine, however you can buy a bundle pack.

And about the antennas I just hate the look of it. So i rather keep them inside the case, if possible. If not I will make a metal thing in the side of the case to function as antenna :D


semi modular or modular.

Semi modular or modular? In spanish Semimodular o cable fijo?

What should I choose?

It is up to you, and how you want to build your PC.

And that should be about it. I have the case already and one extra fan I will add.

Any suggestion, anything I am missing or that is not Hackintosh-able?

Ok my friend so do you think there would be any difficulty in placing all of the components into a 18x41x33 case i have?


And will my motherboard be able to have all the components I listed installed at the same time?
