My room is 8-10 meters from the modem/router and I need a wireless adapter for the new desktop I'm building. I did some "google-ing" and what I mostly saw was that pci will provide stonger signal and faster connectivity while usb is good but it is more flexible. The usb I'm looking at is 150Mbps while the pci are only 54. I'm hoping to get something around $20 usd.Any suggestions?

This is the usb wireless adapter I'm trying to get

+1 for AE which I use primarily for special effects. Get Premiere pro as well. If you have the money, buy Adobe Production Premium CS5. It has all the things you need to produce an independent film. Oh and i think you are in the wrong forum :o so ill make this quick. Making a good video is not all about special effects especially becoming a youtube star.

A PC that is fully capable of being a workstation (for graphic design, 3d modeling & animation, and film) and at the same time can play all new games ultra or max :lol:

It would be cool to have a pc with two cpu's and two pairs of graphic cards in sli or xfire (One pair would be for gaming and the other for workstation). In gaming mode, it would disable the second cpu and only use the pair of gaming graphic cards. For workstation, it uses both cpu's and only uses the pair of workstation graphic cards.

This will be my dream machine with a good IPS panel monitor :) As for keyboard/mouse, i just want something comfortable

I just came back from a long day of school only to find out that I started a war :o

hahaha but thanks to those who actually answered my questions

its what i have and i can play BF3 on ULTRA (EVERYTHING INCLUDING AA AND AF) at a constant 45-60 fps on my 1600x900 monitor

if your a fps whore it may not be for you ive had consoles my whole life and i love the difference the way it is (a huge improvement) the only time ive had it dip below 30 fps is when the smoke cloud from the bomb is dropped on the metro station but for only a second. best bang for your buck.

and this card is basically a 570 if not the same in power thanks to the factory OC

Edit: But the 448 version

Can anyone here answer some of the questions? :|

wait for the 7950 it will utterly rape destroy the 570/560ti just like the 7970 already rape destroyed the 580 gtx. Hell, from the looks of things even the 6950 radeon is a awesome choice if you care for bf3.

I've done some research and found that the 560ti 448 is very similar to the 570 with only a few (1-5) fps behind in some benchmarks. It is also 30-50 dollars cheaper than the 570.

Which one would be a better choice? How does the 560ti 448 perform in an intense online battle in BF3 at ultra setting at 1920x1080? How is its overclocking capability?

Note that I cannot wait for the Kepler because I know that I wouldn't be able to afford them at release.

The 560ti 448 IS a 570 with one cluster of shader processors disabled.

Anyone here owns the 448 core 560 ti? Can it handle BF3 online at ultra setting with a smooth 40-60 fps?
