    Asus responded: No, you will not have to format your unit. So will use the AX200. I read on one add in Amazon that the AX200 runs only with Intel CPU's? Is this correct? or just not true? Asus said it would work...and you did as well. Just to confirm. Thank again.

    Thanks for that information and your patience. The Dual Band Intel 9260NGW 9260ac and the Intel AX200 are compatible with the device. However, installing the cards is done at your own risk. What card would be the best one the Intel AX200? or the 9260ac? thank you for all the help.
