Hello.
I was wondering why PC manufacturers are not using 3x3 WiFI AC solutions. From my research the only notebook with such capabilities is the late 2013 Retina MacBook Pro that I have. I can ger speed between 60-80 MB/s to my NAS nad around 40-50 with another notebook with Intel 7260 AC which is 2x2.
Are there any plans to a 3x3 wifi mPCe card? I want to upgrade my M6800 Precision notebook to one but cant seem to find them. I already have the third antenna ready.

That's true. I have a mini PCI Express three stream cards in my ac router and it's huge compared to a normal one. While the interface is still PCI Express the PCB itself if far too large.

Still I hardly believe that this is the reason no one is trying to develop one in standard pce format.
Will there be one out this year? -

As notebooks keep getting thinner internal space is a major factor in what can fit.
The yet unannounced Intel AC-7265 is M2 aka NGFF form factor but still 2x2 like the mini pcie AC-7260.
In 2015 we may start to see 802.11ad aka WiGig products.
