I have Verizon Home Fios which is apparently only 15/5 Mbps. Does that mean anything over 150 Mbps would be pointless?

I am building a gaming PC on ecollegepc and I've decided on everything except Wireless Networking.

I'd like to be able to connect wirelessly to my Verizon FiOS internet and I'm not sure which option to choose.  I'm assuming that any one of the choices will allow me to connect wirelessly using Verizon Wifi (I'm a noob when it comes to building a PC so please correct me if I am wrong about that) but not sure which one would be best for me.  They have 4 choices:

  1. Wireless B/G/N PCI Adapter 150 Mbps
  2. Wireless B/G/N PCI Adapter 300 Mbps
  3. Wireless B/G/N PCI-Ex Adapter 300 Mbps
  4. Wireless B/G/N Dual Band PCI-Ex Adapter 600 Mbps

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The HDMI input port on my all in one PC seems to have stopped working.  I plug an HDMI cable into it, but get no reception.  I know it's not the cable because it works on my TV.

If I were to have it repaired or replaced, about how much should I expect to pay?

Thanks. Maybe I'll just get an adapter. I just realized I could also use it with my TV.

So the bluetooth option is built into the motherboards? ecollegepc recommended this to me - ASUS Z87-PRO (Intel Z87, HDMI, DVI, 3xPCI-E, 8xSATA, 4xDDR3) It doesn't appear to mention bluetooth anywhere and I can't find any motherboards on their site that do.

So PCs don't come with bluetooth already built in? It came automatically with my AIO.

I plan to be playing some high requirement games like Skyrim and GTA V.  Will this monitor work well?

I am in the market for a new PC and I want something that I will be able to connect bluetooth headphones to for listening to audio.

I currently have an all in one PC so when I connect my bluetooth headphones, they connect to the all in one unit, so my question is, if I get a standard desktop PC with separate monitor and speakers, is the bluetooth capability built into the tower, the monitor, or the speakers?  In other words, what should I be looking for to make sure I can use bluetooth headphones with my new system?
