Msi x470 Gaming pro carbon Bluetooth

[ZeroRate]

I went to use bluetooth today and couldn't get it to work. Read the manual and realised my board didn't come with any antennas, is this normal and are they required for the bluetooth to work, if so what ones can I buy to fit the board?

That board doesnt have WiFi or Bluetooth built into it unless you brought the AC version ? then yes the antenna's are required, if they are not included get in touch with the shop or person you brought it from and talk to them about it, failing that, you can just buy a couple off ebay, they are universal fitting

There seems to be a big MSI AM4 shortage at the moment for some reason, I don't think they make the AC version anymore, ive not seen it in stock anywhere for ages, you'd have to go to the higher end version of the Gaming M7 to have the built in WiFi and Bluetooth.
