    Hello,

    So recently I have been looking at getting some nice quality new Bluetooth headphones, well herein lies the problem, I have been noticing that a lot of these new Bluetooth headphones are you guess it Bluetooth 4.1 so I go to eBay and look for a NIC in PCIe that has BT 4.1 and I can't find ANY at all. So I go to amazon same thing there I can fine m.2 cards that have BT 4.1 . Then I get on google and search and still I can't find any cards that work with my NP9377sm-a (P377sm-a). So I am just wondering are these even any cards available?? If someone knows please help me out....Only way I know of a possibility of finding one now is to ask all you computer experts here on NBR....Thanks guys (I really didn't want to start another thread but I didn't know what else to do I looked everywhere :()

    Just had a thought if I did get headphones that were BT 4.1 would there be backwards compatibility with the BT 4.0 I have in my laptop? Thanks guy

    Bluetooth is backwards compatible.
