What I need for it is a Wireless Network Adapter. I don't know what to look for or what to get. A USB one or PCI one. I don't know. I just want one that will be reliable because having Internet is important for this build. I have At&t DSL Internet with a 2wire router locate about 3 rooms away (including a kitchen), if that helps. I would like to get something under $30.00usd, if I can. And thank you in advance.

Go for PCI one. Also consider your PSU once more before buying. The CX is a builder series and not that stable for high performance systems. Go for TX or HX or simply throw your trust on Seasonic.

Some other slight changes made.

If you have a dual-band router, you might want one of these instead: http://pcpartpicker.com/part/rosewill-wireless-network-card-n600pce

EDIT: Different 760; old one out of stock.
 
Solution


They're pretty rare, for a good reason: Almost no-one makes 3x3 MIMO WAPs. It's pointless unless you've got one of the few routers that do.
