B850m riptide isn't looking for wifi

I built my first PC last week, all the hardware boots and it is showing up in the bios but after installing Windows 11 Home the system is only looking for Ethernet.

I followed the JaysTwoCent video What to do AFTER you build your PC ... Updated for 2023 but even on the initial start up there was no option for wifi.

I've tried every fix I could find online except downloading drivers to a USB because the website for the motherboard won't let you, it says it will appear the first time connecting to the Internet. The only option that appears is Ethernet and after about 4hr of trying to troubleshoot I'm pretty frustrated and thinking of just buying an Ethernet cable to start the process (keeping the PC hooked up to Ethernet isn't an option for me) I'm also worried about a potential bad windows install? Any advice would be appreciated!

Help me trouble shoot my first AIO

I got this Cooler Master Elite liquid 240 for free with some other hardware. This constant ticking/clicking sound has come from the pump ever since I started the system. I don't think it's air bc I worked out the bubbles already and I've checked every fan and wire so I'm lost. I haven't even put an OS on the computer yet. Any ideas or should I start the return?
