I recently built a gaming rig and now I am in need of a wireless pci-e card. Ethernet is no option. I will primarily be using my University's WiFi connection, if that has anything to do with the card choice.

Thank you for your input.

I recommend just going for a standard, cheap adapter, such as this one:

I've used that one for a year now, and never had any issues. I highly doubt you would see a noticeable improvement with anything else, unless you only have a weak signal to work with. In that case, I would suggest this:

Intel based solution is normally best, all the Killer NIC's have been popular due to the way they can be customised.

up to 300/867mbps 802.11AC connection

Intel 7260HMWDTX1 PCIe x1 Dual Band Wireless-AC 7260 for Desktop

up to 600/1300Mbps connection

ASUS PCE-AC68 PCI Express Dual-band Wireless-AC1900 Adapter
