VisionTek Killer Xeno Pro Network Card
If you want to Gear Up to an Online Gaming PC, you have to divide and conquer. Online games demand a lot from your computer, so you need to assign specific tasks to specific components inside your PC for best results. Your GPU handles all the graphics that make these games look amazing in the first place. Your CPU handles game logic, physics and everything else that makes it a computer. But what about all the network traffic that flies in and out of your PC to make your online games as amazing as they are? That's where VisionTek Killer Xeno Pro Network Card comes in.

How It Works
The VisionTek Killer Xeno Pro Network Card bypasses your computer's slow and outdated network stack and routes all game traffic through Xeno's dedicated Network Processing Unit (NPU). This lets your CPU and GPU focus on their respective tasks while your VisionTek Killer Xeno Pro Network Card handles network traffic at lightning speed. The result: better performance for all your online games and applications.

Game Detect Technology
All network traffic is not equal…especially when playing online games. When you're in the thick of a PvP battle or knee deep in orcs and trolls, you need the network traffic for your game to get in and out of your system fast. If it doesn't, you'll start to see your in-game ping rise and your frame rates drop. Bigfoot's exclusive Game Detect™ technology identifies and prioritizes the network traffic for your game above other network tasks and helps prevent the stuttering, pausing and jerkiness associated with lag and latency.

    Get your FREE Killer™ Xeno™ ProSoftware Upgrade and Enjoy:
  • Better performance -Up to 10x faster for game traffic than other consumer network cards.
  • Higher Intelligence -Advanced Game Detect™ identifies & prioritizes game traffic even better than before to ensure your game gets priority treatment.
  • More Control -Brand new Visual Bandwidth Control™ makes it even easier to see and control how your bandwidth is used.
  • Maximum Visibility -Online Gaming PC Monitor™ builds on the functionality of our Dashboard™ product to help you monitor and manage the health and performance of your rig even better than before.

    For further details, Please visit Bigfoot Networks.
What It Is & Why Do You Need It?
  • Bypass your computer's slow and outdated network stack and route all game traffic through Xeno's dedicated Network Processing Unit (NPU). This lets your CPU and GPU focus on their respective tasks while your video card handles network traffic at lightning speed.

If you like your hard earned money, you won't want to waste it on this card. If this card was free you still wouldn't need it. No increase in gaming performance whatsoever, spend your money on a few more months of WOW or a few more diamonds in ROM they'll make you happier.

Well they have recently updated the drivers for this card. Patience is key to running this card. You must read everything carefully to understand how it works, and how it will benefit your online experiences. Go to their web address, and find out more details if in doubt. So far I'm very impressed while playing halo pc online. My ping is lower and is steady, and not jumping around like before. I use dsl. When I'm playing with heavy weapons, and have a lot people around at the same time, there is no more of the lag that I had before, or any missed shots. Very impressed! I was very scared at first, but I took a chance, and wish I had not waited so long to buy it. Looks like police lights in my tower now. Firewall is nice too. Add to cart, and click buy already!

this is a good buy but its not for every one you have to up date the firmware right out of the box so that it will work so go to the website first and download all the drivers and firmware you need

The price is a bit expensive in line with serious gaming hardware, but this product improves the latency for a faster gaming experience and frame rates for smoother game play online in which makes it worth it. I noticed a competative advantage for FPS and MMO games like TF2 and WOW
