Full 900mbps download over wifi 7
Excellent Wifi 7 card, a bit pricey but essential if you want WIFI 7 on an AMD setup previoulsy was using a be6500 usb dongle from china but this was very flaky and kept disconnecting assuming it wasnt AMD compatible and used the be200 chipset maybe anyway i can now get the full 900 down / 900 up from my broadband paired this with an ASUS BE92U wifi 7 router so have the 2.4 / 5 and 6 ghz (320mhz) bands only odd thing is connected to the 6ghz channel i get the full speed, over MLO which combines the 2.4 5 and 6 gives me a slightly slower speed of 820 (this should be faster!) probably user error but ill take a look at that the router is downstairs and 1 room across from mine so this has a decent range too expensive but the only choice if you want WIFI 7 on AMD (be200 does not work)

WiFi 7 compatible with AMD CPU
I installed this in my ASUS PRIME B550M-K motherboard with AMD CPU (Ryzen 7 5800X3D) it worked perfectly fantastic speeds.

Great-ish *Updated*
Seems great, certainly made my WiFi connection more stable compared to 6E, however it doesn't appear to have increased speed at all, even though I have WiFi 7 router, though that may be the fault of my ISP. Of course, one plus on this is it DOES work on AMD, and there doesn't seem to be many of them about. Here's hoping MSI and QUALCOMM only improve this product by releasing more driver updates. **UPDATE** Now having realised before, that my speeds were affected by what channels each bands were on, It has drastically increased my opinion of this product as, with the 6ghz band, I reach almost my FULL speed of WiFi, albeit with a bit of jitter and latency. HOWEVER, there is NO way to LOCK it to 6ghz, you can only set "preferred band" which is a pain in the a*se, when it drops to 5ghz from 6ghz, a quick disconnect and reconnect usually fixes this. However it is annoying, furthermore QUALCOMM and MSI appear to of just chucked this out the door with one driver, and don't seem to want to refine it's drivers. Now of course, it's perfectly functional as is, however at least adding an option to LOCK it to 6ghz, would be amazing

It broke.
Review update: After a month, the WiFi card stopped working again. This WiFi card is not reliable at all. Product support from the seller is not good. I do not recommend buying this WiFi card. Good product but it only works on Windows 11, I installed Windows 10 and thought the wifi card was broken but changed to Windows 11 the card works fine.

It's twice the price as the model on sale in America
This is supposed to be the best WiFi card you can buy, at nearly twice the price as in America, where it's just $50 (£38). Amazon UK is price gouging something ridiculous.

Sin mentir probé multiples antenas WIFI USB y un par PCI... - Varias antenas USB de UGreen (Wifi 5 y 6) - Varias USB de TP Link (wifi 5 y 6) - Antena muy costosa USB de Netgear - Antenas PCI varias Todas me daban perdida de paquetes o latencias aleatorias. Con esta antena, parece que tengo conexión por Ethernet, me olvide de la antena. Cabe mencionar que tengo un router Netgear RS700s WIFI 7 y con este se hicieron todas las pruebas. No puedo estar más feliz con mi compra y thumbs up for MSI for this beautiful piece of adapter.

The Wi-Fi 7 doesn't work yet because Windows has not approved it yet. Supposedly 24H2 version of windows. But this does install on an AMD system. I have it in a Lenovo Yoga laptop and working correctly. I didn't post speed/links because they won't be valid until Windows updates to support Wi-Fi 7. Otherwise its just wifi 6E speedsd. It doesn't have any issues saturating my 1.2gig connection over wifi if I'm halfway close so that's a good sign. Again, it booted and installed for those with AMD systems. I did shuck it and stuck the old Intel AX210 in the other housing and that works. Shucking it was the only way to get this card right now since you can't buy it by itself. Pro's: Works with AMD!, easy to install, wifi 7 Con's: Windows isn't updated yet to support wifi 7. It's coming, though. Overall, this is a solid deal if you want a wifi 7 card installed in a PC or a laptop that is AMD based. If you're willing to shuck it from the drive. Easy enough to do, you get a pretty solid card/antenna to go with it. I've got it connected to an Orbi RBE973S and its blazing fast. I can't wait to see what it can do when 7 is enabled on windows.

I own a sound-recording and audio post-production studio in the Metro-Detroit area and my 10yr old daughter was asking for a computer to do homework and to play Sims & Roblox. So, I gave her one of the lower spec'd old PCs we'd recently replaced. Its an MSi Gaming Plus X570 w/ an R5 3600X, 64GB DDR4 (16+16+32GB), GT-720 silent GPU, Noctua fans, 1TB M2-mounted Samsung 980 NVMe SSD, USB + NIC expansion PCIe card, and a LightScribe CD/DVD-RW ROM drive. In the studio, everything runs on our 3 wired networks. So, we never concerned ourselves with WiFi. In fact, we we disable and uninstall WiFi on every PC because it interferes with the mixing consoles controls. I took it home, set it up, tried installing all of her software and... 🤦♂️ No WiFi. Im too busy to run to Best Buy, but I found this on Amazon. Wow! WiFi7? I had just spent over $500 on an Asus WiFi6 router and few months earlier. I pay for the fastest speed Xfinity offers in the Detroit area and unlimited data, so that I'm able to manage my business from home when necessary, which often includes receiving massive zip files full of 48kHz/24bit wav files and sending zip files with large bundles of Dolby Atmos files (3GB to 100GB+ each) Well, that's all the circumstances, uses, and compatibility information you'll need. So, let's move on to the product itself.... □ Compatible with Windows11 Pro and all of the PC components I named. □ Connects to the 2.4GHz and 5G WiFi signals just fine. □ Speed: I'm surprised to find that the computer in my office seems to be a little faster. The other computer is wired to a repeater on a different floor. I set them to the same WiFi network so that I could access files on my office PC from her room on the main floor. That way, I can handle some of the business side of my work from her room from time to time because the kids miss me when I'm working a lot. Im not sure why it's slower. Most likely due to how I set things up, but I figured I should still note it. Anyway, compatibility is great and the driver was supported on both Windows 10 Pro and Windows 11 Pro after I upgraded the OS with it

I installed the WiFi 7 card in my laptop with RYZEN chip and it works amazingly. You need to install the driver from MSI web page to work. You will notice fast loads immediately with low power consumption. But there is one thing it can cause interference with the other devices and disrupt connections on your other devices. So far my laptop with WiFi 7 works great and I am so happy to extend the life on my old computer. My laptop is a ASUS TUF FX505D RYZEN 7 3000series, 32gb of RAM, Windows 11 pro.
