Still good, no worries!
Yes that's a dual band adapter, overkill if your router is only single band (2.4GHz).
What I can say is it is a decent entry level mobo.
V550 indicates fully modular unit, VS is the semi modular unit unless they have typo on their price list.

Mobo doesn't affect performance. Especially with many things integrated into processor, motherboard becomes more like a hub for expansion cards.  sweat.gif

i5 isn't worth it if you are not playing games for today's CPUs. Change to these parts

AMD Ryzen 5 1600 - 1039
MSI A320M Grenade - 335
Apacer 8GB DDR4-2133 X1 - 259

Why do u recommend AMD Ryzen 5 1600 ? I understand that Core i5 7500 is much better processor....

The 1600 is slower than 7500 in gaming slightly, but you get way more multithreaded performance. You also can upgrade to 8 cores later on the same motherboard, something that you can't do with Intel platform.
AM4 boards usually come with M.2 socket for NVMe SSDs, while you can't find it in cheap Intel boards.

So its better to go for AMD Ryzen 5 1600 ? Just worried AMD Ryzen 5 1600 wont be able to last me for 3 years....

Graphc Card -- RM150
Corsair PSU TX650 ---Can I used this back ?

For that it is better to go for 16GB RAM. biggrin.gif  Ryzen will perform better than i5 in those workloads too.

I always prefer Intel ...Ryzen hope if I get will not dissapoint me at all......

Overall in terms of speed Ryzen 1600 is better off than Intel i5 7500?

Is it not overkill for Normal user which only some do some video editing and Photoshop/illustrator to get Ryzen 1600?

Bear in mind that this mobo comes with 2 RAM slots only, if you plan to add more in the future, please get 1 x 16GB now or swap to a 4 slots one.

4 slots motherboard gonna be more expensive right?
