They send an internet signal round the wiring in your house :) One goes from your router into the wall socket, then the other goes from the wall socket into the back of your pc (connected with an ethernet cable). Just plug them in and you're set :)

The GIGABIT LAN & WIRELESS 802.11N 300Mbps PCI-E CARD will still allow me to connect to my internet, up to a speed to a speed of 300MB/S; right?

Yes it will do, but when i got mine, mine couldn't pick up my internet, so had to go get some homeplugs. Wired is more reliable than wireless :)

Oh, alright. Do the plugs come with an Eternet cable or would I need to purchase one? On the water-cooling - would it make much of a difference between air and liquid cooled?

I presume they would do, but i didn't get mine from PCS. Could always ring up to check, or fire off a quick email, but i'd be surprised if they didn't come with any.

Liquid cooling would give you cooler temps, but for non-overclockers it's abit of an overkill. Air will be perfectly fine to cool :)

Ps, thanks for the rep, but im Male ;) Maggie is the name of the rig :p

Alright - sorry for all the questions but which air cooling would you recommend? INTEL SOCKET LG2011 COOLER, SUPER QUIET 22dBA COOLER or TITAN FENRIR EVO?

If you can afford it, deffo go for the TITAN FENRIR EVO. If you can't, go for the SUPER QUIET 22dBA COOLER :)

Thanks for the help! So, I'll change the order to 2 x HomePlug AV (as I don't have any!) and change the cooler to the one above! Oh, I'm saving £20. :3

I changed the order and ordered two x 2M Ethernet Cables from Amazon (£0.74 each!). I was wondering how it plugs into the PC?
