PCIe wireless cards have better signal reception though.
My one didn't. I don't know if it was getting interference from something or what, but my 3 antenna pci wireless card got worse connection than my current usb one.
So then what's the difference between a $15 USB one and a $90 USB one?
The $90 one is probably using wireless AC which is a new wireless standard and it's very fast although you have to have a wireless modem that supports it (and they're quite expensive/not too common at the moment). Either USB or pci-e is fine. I have a $17 usb one from tp-link that has not dropped a 5 bar signal since I plugged it in and I had a ~$30 one again from tp-link although it hovered around 3-4 bars consistently. No difference in speed either. If anything, the usb one is a little faster.
Volcanic Islands is coming out in October, so if you can afford to wait 2 months from now, the 9970 will be more solid than anything currently out, including the 780, while probably undercutting the 780.

Hey!
I have another question, it says there's no price information on my video card http://ca.pcpartpick...o-card-100351sr
(btw, my preferred merchants are NCIX, CC and Newegg)
Where can I buy the video card now?
Wait until wednesday anyway because that's when they're announcing stuff for the volcanic islands (new graphics cards from AMD) so that might help decide whether it's worth waiting for them or just buying a 7970 now.
Every card except the "new" 290 series is a rebrand considering they first have this big thing about how CrossFire will work over solely PCIe and then every card except the flagship has a CrossFire bridge connector.

Any recommendations?
Whatever. Any should work.
