    I have an acer aspire 5520G with an wifi card atheros based chipset and want to replace it with an Intel Wifi Ultimate-N 6300 or 5300 but i want to know if the MB chipset is Nvidia and processor AMD turion x 2 TL-60 are compatible with this wifi card.
    I need an 3x3 MIMO compatible card mini pci with this rate of transfer up to 450Mbs to keep up with the router Linksys E4200

    It should work but I can't grantee it, however you have another option that is guaranteed to work which is a card based on Atheros AR9380 chipset like a Bigfoot 1103. Remember that you need a third antenna to achieve 450mbps.

    Most likely it would not work with the Intel Wifi since you are using a non Intel Chipset based motherboard.


    Best to follow downloads advice.

    There is no problem getting it to physically fit. You might get issues getting it to run.

    Good luck. :)

    Falco152 you was right it's not working with Intel 5300 after installing driver windows became strange And give me blue screen errors something about ndsnet driver file and memory dump. And after the computer reset itself. So in conclusion is not working. I will try with atheros cipset to see if it works.
