I just built a new PC and installed an Intel AX210 PCIe WiFi card on my B650M HDV motherboard, but I'm experiencing really slow WiFi speeds. I'm wondering if I need an antenna for the WiFi card, as mine didn't come with one. Is there a specific type of antenna I should be looking for, and where can I get one? Also, I plan to have Ethernet installed, but I still want to ensure my WiFi and Bluetooth are working well.

Yeah, you definitely need antennas for your Intel AX210 card! Usually, it should come with them, so it sounds like you just got the card on its own. You can use any antenna that fits, but some are more powerful than others. I'd recommend looking for ones with higher dBi ratings for better performance.
It’s important to get an antenna for your card. While most antennas will work, they have different power levels, so try to find one that’s rated well. Checking reviews can help you find a good one without needing to buy a whole new card. I think the dBi figure is what you want to look at to ensure you get good coverage.
It looks like you're on the right track with needing an antenna. Just make sure to look for antennas compatible with the AX210. If you can, post images of your setup – it might help others give better advice!
