The award winning Killer NIC Network Interface Card gives you the best gaming experience money can buy. Not only does it give you lower pings and a smoother online gaming experience, it also looks stellar inside your rig and gives you the ability to run applications on its Network Processing Unit (NPU) rather than on your CPU.
The Advantage.
The Killer NIC delivers you a faster online gaming experience by ensuring that your data gets to the game as quickly and efficiently as possible. This means you will get more stable and lower latencies and more frames per second in your favorite online games which results in a smoother game play experience while you are in the heat of online battle.
Powered by Lag and Latency Reduction (LLR)
Technology
Killer NIC is powered by Lag and Latency Reduction Technology, which fully optimizes the way networking works in your computer: tweaking it out specifically for Online Games. Learn more about LLR here.
The Killer NIC?s 400Mhz Network Processing Unit (NPU) that allows the Killer to completely bypass the Windows Network stack through hardware acceleration by implementing it?s own interrupt driven networking model. Bypassing the Windows Network stack reduces your latency (Ping), and shortens every game frame loop: boosting your FPS. The Killer NIC?s NPU is specifically designed with online gaming in mind, and handles gaming network traffic much more quickly and efficiently than standard networking products, including packet prioritization. All this gives you a faster and smoother online gaming experience.
The best part of LRR is that it is entirely plug?n?play, and requires no software changes, patches, upgrades or customizations by game developers. This means that you can just plug the Killer NIC in, and get the benefits right away with your favorite online game. In addition, the Killer NIC comes with the Flexible Network Architecture (FNA?) Applications built in which lets you run applications called FNApps inside the Killer NIC. With FNApps, you are just a click away from being able to run BitTorrent clients and firewalls on your Killer instead of burdening your CPU with them.
