    Hey guys! How is everyone doing? So I want to upgrade my network card in my Sager NP9150. I want to upgrade it to a Killer Network card!


    My question is, what's the best one I can get one for a decent price? Is there a difference if you usse a Killer Network card compared to a regular intel network card

    Here are my specs of my laptop

    i7-3630qm
    7970m
    8GB DDR3
    128GB SSD + 500GB HDD 7200RPM
    15.6 Screen + 95% color gamut

    Thanks!

    I do have one more question also, does anyone know if I can also upgrade the keyboard to my laptop though to something a little better? Much thanks again :D

    I think the only current Bigfoot Killer card is the 1202. It uses 2 antenna and has bluetooth. There was a 1103 which had 3 antenna so it gave you better range, but does not include Bluetooth. There is also the new AC N1525, but we have not seen those sold individually yet, just preinstalled in some computers.

    If you use Bluetooth the 1202 will be your best bet. If you do not then the 1103.

    For the keyboard, some Steelseries will work with slight modification. But those are also hard to find now.

    I've only seen the 1525 in m.2 so far which would not fit.

    The 1202 works fine as Hutsady said though.
