Yeah this should allow you to connect to wirelessly to the internet, I still haven't had any issues doing that. Works as intended.

If you have to go wireless, this is an excellent adapter for playing video games. I'm set up across the house from a standard verizon router, and I still am able to enjoy games with minimal to zero lag, and typically see ping times less than 5ms. I'd suggest it for sure.

If you're like 22 ft from your router, you should be downloading at whatever your max internet speed is.

It will work but how much better I don't know. If the graphics card that came with your game computer has 1GB of memory or more, this card may not be better. It's likely the graphics card in your game PC is engineered for gaming. So the best way to get a better one is to look for a gaming card.

I installed Steam but not sure if it is absolutely necessary. I believe it is if you wish to game with others on the net.

You might have to configure it to work for games from Steam. I use x260ce app to configure. As 'ian' has mentioned, its a hit or miss. I would recommend xbox controller as well.

I can't speak to Steam Games, but my experience with this laptop has been fraught with problems. Unresponsive and or manic clicker, freezing in the middle of games or writing, skipping when writing a letter,etc. My computer techie didn't want to deal with it because it was too complicated, so I bought a new computer.

Who knows? It won't work for me with Windows 7. Steam refuses to load so you can't play the game. Do you feel lucky?

I think it only works on Steam if you buy a game code. Though, if you buy a disk, it should work with whatever program you have.

My guess is Steam is just Steam with no national connection. If you are already downloading from Steam then it should work.

Well it should be a steam code. So, yes, you will need Internet to play the game through your steam account... If you have one

Yes it should work and to completely honest do not buy this game its not worth 30 bucks if it was 15 maybe.. the steam summer sale is coming next month just wait till then

From someone who has 300 games in their steam library, it works perfectly in most games. Some games work perfect in game but still require m&k; for menus. Many more games have built in support, including Bioshock Infinite, even when steam does not specify that the game has support for it. You'll just have to start it up and try it out!

I am not sure. .... I will say it has been fine for normal laptop use, but I cannot answer for gaming. I think it is really stable to be honest. I have not had any issues with downloading or uploading.

Yes but every time you turn it on it will first want to go to Steam, once its done that you can play as if your not on the internet!, and at no time will the game ask for Steam more then an ok that you have a legal copy!

Not if you have steam. Just activate it on there and you can download steam to your GFs computer. JUst bring your cable.

Assuming it only provides the key, after which you install it through Steam, yes it should work.

If you don't play games or do any rendering then no, yours should be just fine, save your money and get something better IF you plan on playing games or do any graphics work on your PC.
