Hey guys n girls!

Seems like I have to spend more money :P
After Installing my Sabertooth Z77 - I found out quickly that my Edimax EW-7728In doesn't fit in the PCI-E slot (as it is an old school PCI one)

I want to buy a card preferably - I'm not a huge fan of the USB sticks - However currently I'm using my mum's free DWA-140 (a wireless USB stick).

So I was thinking of buying a PCI-E card.
I've got three short-listed:
TP-Link TL-WDN4800
&
D-Link DWA-556
&
Edimax EW-7612PIn V2

Which would you guys suggest?
I'm leaning towards the TP-Link.
I don't actually need wireless, as of tomorrow I'll be at university, however I don't want to be "locked" to only wired.

Cheers!
 
Probably because you can drag it away from the PC so it doesn't get any inteference from it. Had one on my sister's PC for about a year now and hasn't dropped out yet. My friend uses one for gaming as well and it's been pretty good latency wise.

I had a PCI-E Edimax which died after a year for some reason.

As batman would say - does it come in black?

White wise:

Isn't that a better buy?
