Can anyone recommend a good 802.11ac wireless card that's compatible with the 2013 Razer Blade 14?

The Intel 7260 is probably your best bet - or you can try the latest Killer card, if you wanna stick with that.

Thanks for the info. I didn't realize there was a newer Killer... What is the model number?
(I thought Qualcomm was killing off the Killer brand??? When I look for drivers, etc.... I can't locate them. I thought Qualcomm might have deleted those pages...)
I'm thinking seriously about the Intel 7260.HMWWB.R, but I saw several Broadcom cards that looked like they might also work. -

We don't have a whitelist like other manufacturers, any damage done from an attempted upgrade voids the warranty. -
Can you explain "whitelist" in more detail?
Also, how long is the warranty? 1 Year? I have a 2013 Blade. I think it's been out of warranty for a while now. -
Whitelist is a list of supported cards, if you plug in an unsupported card, machine won't boot. Blade does not do this.
Yes, you most likely have no warranty to be concerned about. We have to preface this as people are people.

FYI, the "Intel Network 7260.HMWWB.R WiFi Wireless-AC 7260 H/T 2x2 AC+ Bluetooth HMC Dual Band Brown Box" works fine when installed in a 2013 Razer Blade 14...
After a clean installation (Windows 10 Pro), the card was immediately recognized.
Connection speeds are up to 867 Mbps, (but I've seen speeds as low as 650 Mbps).
Haven't much need for the Bluetooth capability, but it seems to work fine.Last edited: Aug 2, 2015 -
Man I should really switch out my RT-N66U for the Asus AC router.
