Wi-Fi Card upgrade.

[Eton1102]

I own a G75VW laptop and the Wi-Fi Card has served me well but it definitely isn't the fastest and I need something AC compatible and at the 5ghz range. I am currently looking at the Intel 7260 for it but I'm not entirely sure that I should get that Wi-Fi Card. What would you suggest for my laptop?

I'm not entirely sure. I currently don't have access but I suspect that it's standard mPCIe.

Yeah the 7260 is like the only msata AC card from intel

Ok. I'll have to double check. I heard someone was using that on the Asus ROG forums but thought I would ask.

Glad that you found that second link. I think I will wait it out for a little while then.
