So, I bought the TX50E AX3000. One surprise I had was the fact Bluetooth connectivity is accomplished via a cable between the TX50E PCI card and a spare USB header on the motherboard! I had assumed all communication would take place directly via the PCI slot. Make sure you have a spare header if Bluetooth connectivity is important to you - I only had one spare. (Do not confuse an internal USB header with an external USB socket either - they're not the same!). So I installed it, powered on, and it wasn't recognised automatically by Windows. I installed the WiFi drivers first (directly from the website mentioned in the small print of the instructions) because I don't have a CD-ROM drive, so couldn't use their included CD. As soon as the WiFi driver was installed I was able to easily connect to my home WiFi. I then repeated the same process for the Bluetooth drivers and then Windows recognised it had Bluetooth capability - so far, so good. So everything was working perfectly and I was very happy. I had a nosy around in the settings. Then a few hours later, I couldn't get WiFi to connect. It would just timeout when verifying the connection, every time. I scratched my head for around half hour. I had another nosy in the settings and saw that I had checked "Use random hardware addresses" when logging on to WiFi networks. This is an option in the Windows WiFi settings, and I thought it sounded like a good idea. Turns out that, for some unknown reason, this isn't compatible with my system or the TalkTalk router we have here. The moment I switched that setting off, my connection issue resolved. The router isn't configured to limit connections to certain MAC addresses, so a connection from a randomised address *should* work. It's weird that it doesn't. So take that as a heads up: if you turn that feature on, and experience connection issues on new connections, turn it back off again! :) Overall I'm really happy with the purchase in terms of reliability (no connection dropouts), ping time, download speeds etc.

Was struggling with wifi connection in my pc using a small dongle so got this one. It works great, obiously not as good or stable as a cable connection, but its almost 10x faster than the dongle inused to have. I can play games again. Its easy to install and comes with a small guide on how to do so. you will need your own tools though. For drivers you either need internet connection or a cd reader.

Very happy with the performance. Easy to install and comes with the BT connector to connect into the USB pin in you MB. Ver fast and good speeds specify over the 5Ghz

The wifi is great and it has some of the best wifi connectivity speeds, also it has rarely dropped due to the wifi card. But the Bluetooth connectivity is gone after about 4 months of use. The Bluetooth stopped working, so I tried new drivers, a new wire, and a whole other PC to rule everything out, with no luck. (Yes, I tried the troubleshooter and the website, too, to see if there was a solution, but there was none.) It's easy to install, but it is recommended to install it first to make it easier. As for the size and quality, they are as you would expect: solid and compact. Wifi is 10/10 Bluetooth is 10/10 when working, but it's a 3/10

Nice Networking Card, however it lacks instability - there is no hole for screws (it might damage your motherboard if you don't handle your pc with extra care)

Perfect, wish I'd upgraded sooner, wifi 6 with stable bluetooth, finally.

Had to buy a new PCIe Bluetooth/wifi card as old one failed. This one hasn't faulted since buying. Great connection, installation was easy. Haven't had an issue since.
