Hello community, I'm new here! I have a question regarding these two versions of the laptop. One is from Amazon and the other one is from Costco.

https://www.amazon.com/Acer-Predator-Helios-GeForce-PH317-51-787B/dp/B073PY18CN/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1513523381&sr=1-1&keywords=PH317-51-787B

https://www.costco.com/Acer-Predator-Helios-300-Gaming-Laptop---Intel-Core-i7---6GB-NVIDIA-Graphics---1080p.product.100368662.html

Everything seems to match expect the Wireless card. Amazons one says: IEEE 802.11ac
and Costco: Intel® Dual Band Wireless-AC (2x2)

I'd like to know the difference if there's any. Thanks in advance!
 
There are the same card, described different ways. One description by brand, the other description by generic features.

So, they are the same? exactly the same?
