what is the best wifi pcie adapter?

[nomad10]

Im stuck between two adapters. I'm new to toms so please correct me if i do something wrong.
the two cards I'm stuck on are:

Gigabyte GC GC-WB867D-I
https://pcpartpicker.com/part/gigabyte-wireless-network-card-gcwb867di

ASUS PCE-AC68
https://pcpartpicker.com/part/asus-wireless-network-card-pceac68

both cards are 802.11ac
asus is 1300mbps $85
Gigabyte is 867mbps and bluetooth 4.0 $30

I want the best speed i can get but is there a big difference between 867mbps vs. 1300mbps? the $30 card has bluetooth but isn't as fast as the $85 1300mbps card. Will i even get near those speeds?
my router is ac.

Thankyou for your help.

Honestly if you want to go that far and spend that much, you may be better of routing your internet through powerline. Stable (age of building matters), and faster than WiFi.

The speed you see advertised aren't speeds you will be getting if your plan isn't covering speeds like 1 Gbit/s. With that said, powerline is usually the best, most reliable, and cheapest solution to this problem for most people. Anywhere you see a wallsocket, that's where the ethernet (RJ-45) cable goes into an adapter.

Example of powerline adapter: http://www.amazon.co.uk/TP-LINK-TL-PA511KIT-Gigabit-Powerline-Adapter/dp/B005FVOKM8

Wallsocket -> Powerline adapter -> RJ-45 -> Router

Powerline adapter -> Anywhere you see a wall socket in your house -> Ethernet -> Devices


It's pretty straightforward. May be worth considering since we don't know what your internet plan is and whether or not how stable WiFi would turn out to be in your house.





All the best!
