Not everything is so bad, but there are disadvantages.

The drivers seem to be fresh, but they are not normally installed on Win10 19042. I turned off ARP offload and switched to the operating mode only 2.4 GHz - 8022022 b / g, the situation improved somewhat according to observations, but did not completely improve. There are a lot of complaints on the specialized forums about this series of modules with similar symptoms.

If you are going to use the built-in WIFI, I recommend buying another motherboard. It makes no sense to overpay for a module that works somehow.

Pros

A good motherboard based on the B550 chipset, normal conders and build quality in general, a convenient functional BIOS

Cons

In 2022, the WIFI VDH version seems to be officially sold, which significantly increases the price. The Intel AC 3168 WIFI module itself is very unstable, I don’t know what exactly the problem is: drivers or hardware - but the connection is constantly falling apart, you have to manually turn it off in the adapter settings in order to reinitialize it without rebooting.
