Review on πŸ“Ά Upgrade to WiFi 6 AX3000 PCIe WiFi Card for PC: Dual Band, BT 5.1, MU-MIMO, Ultra-Low Latency – Windows 10 (64bit) compatible by Travis Carter

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Works great for me, slightly misleading product description

The PCIe plate was bent when it arrived. Nothing special, bent with pliers, but not quite what I expect from a $35 product. Pack better. Also the description is misleading, your motherboard needs a free USB 2.0 port (not 3.0/1) for Bluetooth to work. Intel states this in the specs for the AX200 chip they use in this card, so it's a limitation of the chip, not a discount from the seller. It's basically a chip designed for a laptop with an M.2 Key E slot, so ordinary consumers will never know Bluetooth is on the USB line. But the adapter you plug the M.2 card into must have a USB connector because PCIe doesn't natively support USB transport without an additional adapter. However, it would be nice to make it clearer in case someone has already taken this header so they can buy a header splitter. I don't need it, but I would be upset because the product description only mentions that a cable is included. Plug and Play in Windows 10, was able to connect my AirPods Pro instantly via Bluetooth, and I prefer the look with the USB dongle sticking out of my case. In general, the purchase is satisfied.

Pros
  • Dope πŸ”₯
