Hi everyone, I'm trying to purchase a Wi-Fi card but have limited knowledge about networking. Could anyone explain the differences between the chipsets listed: Intel Ax200, Intel 9260AC, Intel 8265AC/8260AC, Intel 7265AC/7260AC, and Intel 3265AC/2160AC?

It picks the AX200 model. It works with the latest Wi-Fi standard and is reasonably priced.

If you're using Windows 10, connectivity is largely unavailable...
