Was hoping for 800Mhz, I got 1300Mhz
I also got an AC2600 TP-Link router was extremely happy with the results. I would recommend that anyone who wants a performance increase get this combination. (Keep in mind distance and walls will
lower the performance. My wife's setup is 2 walls and 3 times the distance, so, she is getting 800Mhz(Of course we both are hard wired to the 1gig connect - got to have backup!!).

Worth the Price. Reliable.
I purchased this wifi card and an AC 1900 router.
I maintain a constant 40ms ping while playing online and notice no drops in speed vs ethernet connection.
Reliability:
Other than very occasional dropped connection (once in a month at most) which can be cleared by quickly turning off Wifi and turning it back on, I have no issues with connection.
Speed:
Speed is not an issue. I don't even think I would have better performance with a wired connection.
Installation:
Because it is configured with a small PCI-e connector, you can pretty much choose any PCI-e lane to use with this.
Remember to screw in the provided external antennae.
I installed the driver from the DVD provided first and then upgraded it from the TP-LINK website. The provided driver installed on my Windows 10 computer without issue and the updated driver was easy to find on the website.
With any network, your connection is only as strong as the weakest link. This should be purchased only if you have a compatible router or plan on getting one. Keep in mind, though, that having a high-capacity router does not guarantee the best experience. You should take the time to set it up properly or getting it professionally set up.

Does Everything With Great Connection and Speeds!
Can't say enough good things about the speed, reliability, and range of this network adapter. It's downstairs and a couple rooms away from where the router is and I still get phenomenal speed and constant connection. No issues!
