Save your money, just use the stock cooler.

As long not overclocking, get non-Z Mobo and non-K CPU. Additionally, K CPUs do not ship with the stock HSF

Hx10 - Basic features
Bx50 - More basic features
Hx70 - Same features as Zx70 except overclocking

Just need to search. I think previously msi h110 have them. Less then 150. The new h210 dunno have or not. Pls do take note that it will cost u easy 60-70 easiy to get a new wireless ac adapter.

Its good to have, i currently got a TP link USB wifi nv use, cos using LAN. and like what some bro said, can buy the PCIe card if no build in. was looking at 270 board...

budget is around 1.2k - 1.3k w/o monitor, keyboard and mouse
I won't be using wireless as I will be connecting directly through LAN. Not going to OC anything also.

Don't think there's a h210. Intel Ark site also never state have.

H110 mini itx board mostly have wireless. But to use kabylake need to update bios. A tad bit tedious.

Informative thread. Just adding on that I bought the sabertooth motherboard thinking it would be more durable, but in the end one of the usb ports not working after a year. Lazy to change. I'll prob never go with such an expensive board again. Could have bought 2 or 3 h/b boards for the same price i paid for the sabertooth. At the end of the day its all see whether you suay or not
