If you are talking about a wireless card, then performance won't matter
between internal PCI card and USB 'dongle' - both interfaces are way faster
than any wireless device (assuming USB2). I have an internal PCI card, but
actually prefer USB as you can move it between machines and you can put it
on the end of a USB extension cable, so the reception is not obstructed by
the metal case on the PC.

If you are talking about a wired network adaptor, then I haven't seen and
USB ones, so can't comment.
