hi i have wr843nd. it is good router. but i built new pc and i need wireless adapter. iam heavy gamer and my gpus will be sli. so questions?
1.is internal adapter better for gaming than usb?
2. is wdn4800 or wdn4200 compatible with my router?
i think usb adapters gets hotter than internal(just my thought)
Can you recommend me good wifi adapter for online gaming (bf4,cod) ?
 
You will not find any huge difference between wireless adapters. It is pretty much which you like better they will perform pretty close to the same.

How well they work for games depends mostly on your house and how much interference you have from neighbors. Games do not tolerate packet delays or loss which you get a lot of on wireless. This is why it is recommended you do not use wireless for games. All you can do is try it but if you live in a area with lots of close neighbors it likely will be very inconstant.

May I ask why you are so keen to go wireless when your PC is almost on top of your router? It would seem a no-brainer (and considerably cheaper, too) to use a cable and would be much more beneficial from a gaming perspective. Is there a specific reason?
