dual boot. dual boot. just dual boot.
you do NOT need to just install linux if you have windows for games and what not. linux is NOT for games and is very incompatible with a LOT of them.

well your selected adapter seems like its probably not cheap. but if you have any extra money you could consider looking into even better ones

however if your router isnt very good then the wireless card wont matter.

it's pretty good, it's this model:

i bought a wireless adapter and it's had a lot of problems. if you happen to be lucky like me and find an ethernet cable right next to your adapter which is where my computer is then i would recommend an ethernet over wireless.

in a apartment in another room with the router in the living room far away so that's impossible

i'm mainly looking for things i can modify or optimize to be affordable and also work well.

i'm looking for the following things:
- shadowplay
- able to play most games at a medium quality at about 60FPS
- fast speeds
- affordable

let me know what's good about it and what's bad, and what i should change.

the disadvantages of living in a rural town

since my tablet can only connect to my internet
i can't go more than ~6 feet out of the house before loosing connection
and i don't have gps so my character is rapidly running into random places near me
also how the forget do these people level up their stuff so rapidly

if you have root & xposed just look on xda devs for a pokemon go controller, lets you play without leaving the house in case you can't leave the mentioned house
