Right off the bat, Killer faces a challenge in altering the public's perception of its products. They're frequently supplied by Intel or Realtek, with the former gaining preference based on brand recognition, yet it's usually a case of either one will do.īut would it pay to give the network controller greater consideration? After all, won't practically all of your new PC's usage scenarios revolve around a web connection? The folks at Killer reckon it's time to revisit the NIC and see if there's value to be had in its latest-generation wired and wireless solutions. And we can see why - network controllers tend to just work, and they're one of those integral components that require no user intervention outside of the occasional driver install. These are the pillars of any new build, but hands up, how many of you have given any real consideration to the system network interface controller (NIC)?
Intel is a sleaze company - they always have been and always will be - chasing the almighty dollar while throwing their clients / customers under the bus.Have a potential PC upgrade brewing in the back of your mind? We imagine you'd be considering, among other things, a newer CPU, a faster GPU, more memory and a high-speed SSD. Just as a reminder to this community-Intel's CEO - Brian Krzanich, sold millions of dollars' worth of Intel stock four months before the public learned of Spectre and Meltdown.Īccording to a filing made with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, Krzanich completed a number of transactions in which he exercised his employee stock options to purchase Intel shares at a lower price and immediately sold those shares on the open market In fact, all shares he could part with under corporate bylaws. It'll go down in history to describe what Intel did to many network controllers that used to be supported by a very good company. Killer is the most apropo name that Intel could have acquired. And just to be even more clear, Intel didn't design motherboards for many of the network controllers that Intel immediately ended support for. Intel didn't contribute Jack **bleep**te to Qualcomm or Rivet.
When in fact, the company Rivet Networking, aka, Bigfoot Networking, designed the software and who Intel bought out. David_G_Intel and sounds like with the use of the word "our" when referring to Intel that you're giving a false impression to the community that Intel designed the software for the Killer E2400 GB Ethernet adapter.
