Just go with an Alfa AWUS1900
USB are better than cheap pci cards. Personally recommend the Asus PCE-AC68.
Depends on the speeds you want, and if you want high end features like 802.11ax, or 160mhz DFS support.

My friend bought this and gets ~600-700mbps with 5ms ping, though the router is only about 10-15 feet away, and he is using 160Mhz DFS channel.
>recommending a 80 dollar ac card when ax exists.
PCI-express cards are generally better as they can draw more than the ~2-5 watts USB can provide. I'd advise looking for ones with at least 4x4 MU-MIMO im the 2.4GHz (lowest latency and highest stability) range for them to really be worth it.
If your motherboard supports it (only new intel motherboards)

Probably the cheapest fast option.
4x4 cards are exceedingly rare and fairly expensive, since you have to have 4 antennas.
