Hi:

 

The Ax201 won't work because it is a CNVI card and only works in the PC's it originally came with most of the time.

 

None of the Intel cards listed at the link below will work in your PC:

I recommend one of the following...

 

Intel AX200 Wi-Fi 6, or the Intel AX210 Wi-Fi 6e.

 

Before purchasing either card, make sure your PC has the antenna wires installed, because most of the time the antenna wires are not there if the PC did not originally come with a Wi-Fi card.

 

You might just have to use a dual band USB Wi-Fi adapter.
