Hullo people of toms hardware, I have finally built my first PC (yay) only to relise I don't have any sort of wireless connection built in ._.

I would like some advice on to how I can hook up my PC to a wireless network

Would I need to get some kind of receiver? Or would a USB adapter thing work better? And also how good would something like a USB be for gaming purposes?

Thanks! :)
 
Solution
Buy and install a wifi card eg Asus N15 ($30 @ Newegg)

The use Windows, Control Panel, Connect to a Network. Or you could just run an ethernet cable from your pc to the router.
