[Discuss] Recommendations for wireless N adapters?



I'm in the process of building a new Windows box and need
an adapter for WiFi-n. I started with looking for PCIe x1 cards but have now
extended the search to external USB adapters as well due to the slim pickings
for decent cards especially for 5GHz. I have shortlisted the following:




* Linksys Wireless-N PCI Adapter With Dual-Band WMP600N 

      + http://www.amazon.com/Cisco-Linksys-Wireless-N-Adapter-Dual-Band-WMP600N/dp/B0028N6VN2




* Asus Black Diamond Dual Band (2.4GHz 300Mbps/5GHz
300Mbps) Wireless-N USB Adapter

      + http://www.amazon.com/Asus-Wireless-N-Graphical-Interface-USB-N53/dp/B005SAKW9G




I'd appreciate any comments on these or any other good WiFi-n
adapters that folks have used. I'm planning on putting this PC in a place where
the signal strength from my router is rather weak, so strong (& reliable)
reception is critical.




Thanks,
