    I'm looking for dual band wireless N cards that fit in a pci express x1 or pci 1.1+ in standard atx.
    I like something that can play nice on a xp 32 and win7 64.
    I tried looking for some but barely found any.
    :) Some help is appreciated.

    Check ebay for them. They have a couple varieties and low and normal profile. Nowadays the best cheapest chipsets are really only easily available in mini-pcie so it is by far the best option for you.

    Oh, and technically since this is for the desktop this shouldn't be on notebookreview.com, but I recommend you just google search for a good desktop computing forum.
