some of the high end models have inbuild bluetooth and wifi, but personally i think they are gimmicks to justify the price tag...

Yea, but netbooks are mobile and pretty much require wifi to function.
In contrast gaming PCs are generally very much stationary and you don't really want to be gaming over wifi (unless you absolutely have to), you should be using Gigabit ethernet or at the very least - powerline.
Which high end motherboards have built in Wi-Fi?

There was an older Asus AM2+ 790FX board.
And there's been some others, a Zotac ITX etc.

Doesn't matter if it's high end really does it?
A feature's a feature.

I've only seen built in Wifi on a few ITX boards, I can understand that as they're small and will perhaps be sometimes moved around a bit.
But yes as the others have said, since desktops are stationary they don't need wifi, as a more stable wired connection is prefered.

I didn't say it mattered.
I was seeking clarification on the statement "some of the high end models have inbuild bluetooth and wifi" in case I was missing something.
