Hi I'm building a rig and was curious if I need a wireless network adapter or is it build in to the motherboard or something? Here's my build.

Id also appreciate it if you could tell me if my rig is good and if theres anywhere I can save money? I honestly just wanna play cs go, bf3 and cod.. And I dont mind playing on medium settings. Thanks!

Premiertek PL-18N USB 2.0 GAMEBASE Adapter 2X9DBI ANTENNA

It's huge but it's the best adapter I've ever used.

You will need one as the motherboard does not list an onboard wifi ability in it's features/specs. Aslo I think the build looks fine for the games listed. CS doesn't really require a lot of graphics memory and BF3 and COD should do fine on medium. if you can invest in a GTX670 though that might be more worth your while for those games than the GTX660

Are you looking for a card to put in your rig or ar eyou looking for a USB adaptor? There's pros and cons to both but if you plan to use wireless heavily I would say you probably need the card since the USB adaptors get burnt out after a while from high useage.
