I have two of these and several of the Newegg Rosewill similar wireless N900 PCI-e card which also goes on sale periodically (once a month?) for around $23. (It's $31 USD at the time of this post.)

I recommend either of these cards as they work OOB. I get full 450 Mbps speeds with with my wireless router. :thumbup:

These TP Link wireless adapter kits also come with a Low Profile bracket if you need to install into an HTPC case. These adapter cards also do well with Windows. Haven't tried it with Win10 yet but I'm sure there are drivers. So if you dual boot you'll be good to go. Just checked the TP-Link site and they say that drivers only go up to Win 8.1. Surprising seeing that this is one of their biggest selling products. http://www.tp-link.com/us/download/TL-WDN4800.html#Driver

Does anyone have one of these working with Windows 10 ???

Looks like there is a Windows 10 driver but it is created by Atheros.

trs96, does the TL-WDN4800 work in either on of your Dell's (9010, 7010). I've read that this card has problems in Windows if placed in 2nd PCI slot. Only works in the PCI-e x16 slot.
I've sold mine over two years ago and switched to a BCM94360CD instead. Note the date of that post is 2016.
I can highly recommend either of the pre-built cards made by Fenvi. Links are in the Deals of the day section.
