Please understand that I have no disrespect for you, or the Killer product. I have been long searching for something that has such claims. Before this weekend, I had a conversation with someone on how there doesn't seem to be a product that can zone in on the real problem with online gaming, and that happens to be lag and latency. But without understanding how your product works, I feel somewhat the skeptic.

I am not saying that it doesn't do what it reports, but I see a lot of "this product is exactly what you need to round your system out" type comments, or "this will take care of what ails your system", and without fully explaining how this product will benefit the gamer. It is one thing to show features and benefits, but it is another to show data comparisons, and hopefully not synthetic, between your product and say a common nic integrated into X, Y, and Z motherboards.

Lastly, I am not only a noob, but I play one on tv too, so please forgive me for asking about these:

FNA? This sounds like you can code some sort of proprietary compression. As long as the game hosting servers/realms use this compression in their games, and you use the client version, you can see improved performance.

Game First? Sounds like QoS, of which I can control on my router. If I have it on my router, do I have to disable it in order for GFirst to work?

Ping Throttle? This sounds like you can control your latency. Being able to control your latency seems like something that can be exploited in online games. Ghosting comes to mind, and in pvp, I also know the effects of people that force latency/link-deaths. It is wrong, it is evil, and I thought that I read that your focus is on getting the best pings... not making it worse.

MaxFPS? How much load is taken off of the system? When you compare your product against the integrated nic, it would be a wonder to see real world effects of something like gaming in Molten Core in WoW. While my graphics are bogging down, while my cpu is maxing out because of Ventrilo and the game, will I only get a 2% offload, or 15 to 20%?

Last-lastly, when a particular hop that you have no control over keeps you latent and lag heavy while gaming, how can you bypass those nasty nocs? I can play Everquest, and get GREAT pings and no lag with my rig, but I can log into WoW, and on a brand new low population server and get horrible lag. I can log into a high population server and get great ping times with no lag or latency.

These things seem to be out of the control of a nic, and I for one will stand atop my home and proclaim this product as what saves my lag ravished connections. Tytus, is this that product? If so, what does all of this mean, and how can I honestly compare it to what is already integrated in my system so I can not only feel good about my purchase, but likely end up hawking your product. I would hate to see you guys pump up this product like PhysX PPU, but only to find out that it is just a bunch of hype.

Got a minute? Stop by and help me/us better understand the product. If you have to wait until it goes on sale, then so be it. I've got big lungs, and have no problem holding my breath.

Why is it that I can convince you that there are a billion stars in the sky, but if I tell you "Wet Paint!", you have to touch it to see if I'm telling the truth?
