The Asus PCE-88 is an AC 3100 PCI-E device costing £ 66.66 ex VAT and the Asus RT-AC86U Router is an AC 2900 device costing £ 150 ex VAT therefore £ 216.66 ex VAT in total for both.
My Netgear A7000 AC 1900 USB device was £ 54.32 ex VAT and my Netgear R6800 AC 1900 router was £ 66.66 ex VAT therefore £ 120.98 ex VAT for both. No point comparing my AC 1900 devices with AC 2900/3100 devices.
When I bought my A7000 AC 1900 USB device my internet connection speed was 236 Mbps so it was capable of that and only recently has my speed increased to 472 Mbps.
If I wanted better WIFI speeds it would cost me £ 216.66 ex VAT less whatever I sold my current devices for. I'm sticking with Ethernet though as that will be better than any WIFI equipment.
