Hi so it's time for me to get a new PC and here is the one I'd like to get. I'm just confused on whether or not it can use wifi as that's the only internet available in my house. Here is the PC.

That computer is by far, not worth $700, lol.

The only good things are the processor, could be a little bit better, for not much more. And the amount of USB 3.0 ports.

The video card is really low end, its not gonna get good fps in many high end games (which is what you buy a "gaming" computer for, right?)

And 500 GB HDD space? Com-on, this is 2014.

You only have WiFi? I'm pretty sure there's SOME sort of Ethernet port on your router...you'd need some serious hacking to connect directly to an outer space satelite.

And chances are you needed to set up the initial WiFi network by ethernetting into your router.

P.S. That's a really sick computer...good choice. And it's pretty cheap too.

It's under the specifications tab.

But what about this:
Network Card Built-in Realtek 8111E 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet LAN Allows a computer to connect to a network either by using cables (Ethernet) or wireless technology (IEEE 802.11).

The top review says it isn't wireless as well.

Edit: There's also another review a ways down that states this. There's probably more, but I don't want to sit here and skim them all.
