Review on GIGABYTE GC-WB1733D-I: Enhance Connectivity with Bluetooth 5, Wireless AC 9260, and Dual Band WiFi Expansion Card by Will Jenkins

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great solution for non-Wi-Fi/Bluetooth motherboards!

The savings from eliminating the Bluetooth/WiFi motherboard could easily cover the cost of this PCI-E add-on as the drivers are automatically loaded via the Windows wizard as of 12/2020 . but if you only have wired internet, there are drivers on the hard drive! (but who uses more CDs? That's my only complaint, in my opinion it would be better to use a small USB stick that can be reused?) The magnet on the wifi antenna is good too! Oh! and you need to connect this card to an extra USB port on your motherboard if you want to use bluetooth! This is detailed in the instructions but I want to make sure you are aware of this before you buy!

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • Can't remember
