Spec me a wifi adapter (PCIE or USB?)

What would be better? A PCI-E Wifi adapter like this, squeezed around the back of my PC near the floor near the wall, or a USB adapter like this, sat on my desk?


My router is nearly directly below me on the floor below. My current USB adapter a TP Link WN722N connects with full strength but keeps dropping connection- I think it is a usb connection issue (I sat on it...)

It's a virgin hub 3.0.

Thanks for the recommendation. Can my router do both 5GHz and 2.4GHz at the same time? Our phones and TV is connected to the router at the same time (and probably can't do ac/5GHz as they're old)?
