Why doesn't the mainboard just come along?

Paired with the Aurous B550 pro because I didn't want the nasty shark fin cable antenna it comes with. Not only did I think the aesthetic was terrible, it kind of defeats the purpose of a wireless antenna, doesn't it? I might have expected a small speed loss, but instead I got a constant speed gain of around 5-10%. Each antenna is about an inch and a half tall, and you might not know it's there unless you're looking for it. To be honest, the worst part is that it's not standard on all motherboards. As cheap as it is, I can't imagine it costing them much. I suppose a more powerful antenna could be useful in some niche situations, but I bet it's better for 99% of desktop gaming setups.

Pros
  • Regular price
Cons
  • Definitely a bad product
