Which wireless card for the T450s?

There are 2 choices, what is the difference between the two and is it worth paying the extra $20 for the Intel card?

Long story short, yes it is.

Yeah but I don't want to just take your word for it. Can you tell me why the Intel card is better? I plan to use this laptop at home on my wifi network.

OK now you'll have to ask someone else for their opinion.

The Intel card supports 802.11ac,so it is definitely worth paying more for it.
