I need a decent wireless card or a decent usb wireless adapter for gaming.
Any suggestions?

Powerline adapters I'd say are best for gaming. Wifi signal isnt really stable enough. If you do, Netgear and Belkin tend to be the best. Try and get a pci card rather than usb if you can

Never bother with the cheap USB options, no matter the value they seem to hold.
As above, powerline is a damn sight better.

Although I myself do use wifi for gaming

I use the built in card on my p8z77 deluxe though which makes the point kind of mute
