imo the intel cards seem a lot better reception and drive wise, broadcom's driver site is so vague. I hate the broadcom card in my unibody macbook, i wish i could install intels 5300 wifi card into it but i can't.

my choice would be upgrade to intel. For wow i also play it also my frame rates drop randomly but it also depends on the server you are playing on also. I get some lag spikes even on my m6300 that has a x9000 cpu and a fx3600m as a gpu I do not play on ultra setting either although i probably could.

yeah , the Broadcom website kinda sucks. I fixed my problems by installing a new router ( WGL-4500 gaming router) et opening it to the 5ghz band , in '' N'' only.

For now, everything is stable. I hope widows 7 will be smoother on those wireless card ..

thanks for the help everyone ..
