Hi, I've found a well priced/quality WiFi adapter,but I'm wondering if this will work with my PC.Here's the link http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...

I realize it fits into a Mini PCIe but I don't have that slot.I have a PCIe x16 slot and I'm not sure if that is compatible with the card.If the above is true,should I get antennae or is it fine as it is?
OS:Windows 10 Preview
Model: Dell Optiplex 7010 SFF

Its not compatible. You can get a USB or a pci/pcie adapter though.

That is intended for a laptop. You would want something like this for a desktop -- even a SFF. If you really want an intel controller, then this could be your choice.

Thank you both for the responses!Now,as for the two adapters you've shown me,which do you think is best?I see good reviews for both,and both seem reliable and fast.

I like the intel because the antenna is on coax. You can move it around for best signal.
