Here's the Service Manual:
Page 27 lists the original wireless offerings by HP. The only 5ghz wifi card with BT is
Intel Wireless-N 7260BN 802.11b/g/n 2×2 WiFi + Bluetooth 4.0 Combo Adapter for use only on computer models equipped with an Intel processor 717384-001
Your model has an AMD processor. HP has never told us definitively which models do and do not have the infamous BIOS whitelist which block usage of any wireless card not listed in the Manual. I believe, but cannot guarantee that your laptop is new enough not to have the whitelist. It was abandoned sometime in Q4 2013 we think.
The Intel 7260 is a very good wireless card but not optimal for an AMD machine. The best card for AMD machines is the Broadcom Azurewave:
You need to check and be sure your laptop has 2 antennae before ordering this. If it does, then the Azurewave should work subject to the above caveat.
Wireless card installation "how-to" is on page 52 of the Manual.
