I need to have wireless options for my build, but I do not know which should I get.
It will be best if the cost less than 20-50 dollars. (Cheaper the better! Right?)
My Internet if from AT&T MAX speed (up to 12 Mbps ).
I am not sure if I should go with usb or pci express...
Both is fine with me, I guess.
However, if I use pci express, will I still be able to Crossfire my gpu?
I think I am more toward pci express tho, because I do not like usb sticking out of my pc xD
I want the speed to be fast with no delay. (only noticeable for human eyes)
Which one should I go with?
Help will be appreciate.

You will get a much better connection with these. Plug one into the wall by the router and the other by your PC (not into a surge protector the actual wall power outlet)

On my two gaming desktops I have the following PCI wireless cards:
1. Linksys WMP600N - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...
2. Asus N53 - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...
In both cases the signal goes through 4 drywayys and on two different floors thirty feet away. The PCI slots are different, so pick one depending on what type of PCI slot is available and free on your motherboard.
I do not recommend USB wireless devices for a desktop.
