Wireless Gaming Pc???

CosminGCole · 24 May 2014 at 20:39

Hi everybody

I am going to build my first gaming PC soon but I have a small problem. I cannot get a wired internet connection in my room (where the pc is going to be) therefore I will need to have a wireless connection. What kind of motherboard and wireless card would be suitable for a £2000 gaming build? :confused:

IF you want the absolute best Wireless connection possible then you want an AC capable Router and Wireless card but those are expensive.

No chance of using Powerline Adaptors?

I don't want the best of them all as my connection is only 20mb/s at the moment but i want something to work and not lose its connection.

Oh , great! it's quite embarrassing to say but i don't even know how power line adapters work :| I've never had to research about them.

Just make sure you use a normal socket for them not and multy plug thing or you can have problems due to signal being split up...or at least i did about 5 years ago dont know if its still the case.

Yea yea , sure thing

I actually have quite a few sockets in my room that i can use.
