Hi all, I have to put a wireless card in, (i have one in now but it doesnt work anymore) because of our house config, the computer is away from the modem. I do pretty much only gaming on my desktop. I know wireless is not the best for gaming but its my only choice. I need good range and something that will give me the latency to play online.

They only seem to have USB? Im looking for a PCI card. I saw an asus card 'PCE-AC66 802.11ac Dual-band Wireless-AC1750 PCI-E Adapter' <--- but with this its an 802.11ac? will this work with a standard wireless gateway from telstra?

Hi :)

Most don't use wifi CARDS for gaming as the aerial is slightly blocked by the metal back of the case... you can add a usb extension lead to a usb one to hang it anywhere...

All the best Brett :)
