Hunter~SPARTA~ Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 So, I'm in the market for a wireless network card. At least I'm assuming that a PCI expansion card is "better" than the USB devices. Does anyone have experience with these or have any suggestions/advice to offer? - JHunter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will also add, probably miniscule, latency to your gaming experience - but is is there. In short - go internal card whereever possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Batwing~SPARTA~ Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 Hi, I have 2 of these on a laptop and on a desktop: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16833166037 They r just amazing for the price, they are N (if you use it, I dont) and on Win7 you don t even need drivers, Win7 install in a snap. I couldn t go on internal because my PC is loaded inside, but about resource usage or latency... The difference is latency between wired and wireless, but I do not believe there would be any difference between this USB and an internal PCI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
