I would get the R9 Nano for ~$60 more. But otherwise... This works.

Oh..... Wait. DON'T get Asus wireless card. They use Ralink chipset, which is utterly $$$$. I use the same card right now, and it's absolute crap. Get the Gigabyte WC867. It has the Intel AC 7265 on a Mini PCI-e slot. The Intel AC 7265 that is in the laptop I'm typing on right now is SMOOTH.
