I have the ASUS Strix Z270E motherbaord and use the built in wifi. I was wondering if anyone could tell me the max speed this board's wifi can run at. Currently it is getting 99.6Mbps during an internet speed test, but I have 400Mbps internet.
 
Next-level 802.11ac Wi-Fi with 2x2 dual-band 2.4/5GHz antennas offer up to 867 Mbps* transfer speeds — and the very latest Multi-User MIMO (MU-MIMO) technology ensures that every connected user** experiences the best wireless and online speeds!

* Actual speed varies, and Wi-Fi hotspot feature operates at 802.11a/b/g/n. Windows 10 does not currently support Wi-Fi hotspot functionality.

** Requires MU-MIMO-ready client.

According to the asus website, wireless is Always slower then wired though, lot depends on distnace to router, interference etc..
 
Without the MIMO antenna, you could get up to around 430Mbps. However, that's kinda theoretical speed. I typically expect half to a quarter of those speeds for wireless.
