    There's hardly anything more up to date than 5300 except for anything supporting 802.11ac standard.
    Since it's a 5300 it's bound to use mini PCI Express you'd have to stick to Intel 7260.
    Alternatively you could buy Intel 6300 but it's not a generation between your 5200 and 7260 so I don't know how windows 10 would like it.
