I'm currently using an Edimax EW-7728IN wireless n PCI card, and its fantastic. There's only one problem, and that's that it is PCI. My motherboard's only got two PCI slots, which are taken up with the wireless card and my sound card, but I'm also thinking of going Crossfire with my graphics cards, which will block off a PCI slot. The wireless card seems far cheaper to replace with a PCI-E version than the sound card would, but after looking around, the only affordable PCI-E card running 300Mbps wireless n is the Edimax EW-7612PIn.
As it stands, I currently get 240 - 300Mbps depending on what's happening between me and the router. I'd love to just go cabled, but its far too far. Would I see any real drop in performance going from 3 to 2 antenna as I would by switching to the 7612PIn?
Equally, are there any other cards I should be looking at? This is the only affordable one I've spotted. Thanks in advance
