    I'm looking to upgrade my wireless card, but wanted to know which form / size I need to replace my Atheros on the NV53? Is there a way to look this up aside from cracking the case open and checking?

    I heard awhile back that Intel cards don't even run on AMD cpus - is there any recent news on this and how it's worked for people?

    Thanks for any ideas.
