This build will only be for gaming at 1080p 60fps. I want at least medium settings in new games (poorly optimized games like Arma and ARK don't count). The ballpark budget is about 460 USD before the gpu, and about 200 more for the graphics card. The parts will be purchased in the US.

What wireless adapter should I get? I don't have a preference for USB or pci interface. What should I get considering my download speed is 32 mbps and upload speed is 4.21 (according to speedtest.net. I also have a bunch of tabs open now)? The phycode is 802.11/n. The internet performance I get from my laptop, which is a macbook pro mid-2010, is fine, so whatever's faster or equal to that will do.

TL;DR: Which 802.11/n adapter?

860k + 380 ITX rig

The board here comes with wifi, usually ITX boards tend to come with adapters on either side.

Also if you want to wait just a bit, the 380x may come out soon, and would be a good step up from the 380 here

You really don't want a USB adapter if you're doing any kind of gaming, it's going to explode.

I edit my posts a lot, Twitter is @LordStreetguru just don't ask PC questions there mostly...

What is your budget/country for your new PC?

 

what monitor resolution/refresh rate?

 

What games or other software do you need to run?
