Is it worth spending another $25 for an Intel AX210 WiFi card, or is the Mediatek card actually not so bad after all? Opinions seem to be mixed here, but many also seem based on conjecture so I’m curious if anyone has real world experience of the two in terms of connection stability (wifi and BT) and signal strength/range. Also curious if using an Intel card on the Ryzen board will end up being more power hungry.
My only experience with a Mediatek wifi card was many years ago in a Thinkpad and it was a terrible experience – constant disconnects. I suspect those bad old days are long gone though.

For me and my german internet speed it is quite enough. Got full usage of my 80 Mb/s line.
But on the other hand, if you are further away of the WiFi-source or need a higher speed, you might want to consider the intel one. For normal office work and reasonable distance the original one should be enough
