Killer NIC is one of the first network cards intended directly for gamers and we have at several occasions been reporting about this odd product. With a price at over $250 many have been wondering what you get for such a sum. All motherboards of today have integrated network circuits of a pretty decent quality. Is it really possible to improve the network card to such a degree that it’s worth hundreds of dollars? At ExtremeTech they’ve asked themselves precisely that and taken a closer look at Killer NIC. After a series of benchmarks and performance tests for measuring ping and FPS they’ve come to a pretty solid conclusion.



There isn’t much that speaks in Killer NIC’s favor and the problem isn’t just the high price, but also that the card simply doesn’t offer any improved performance at most occasions. Many have been questioning a network card for $250 and they seem to have been right.
