I own the model just below this one a killer K1, and I have to admit I did see some improvements with it, I did see a few more FPS,and pretty much what they claim it is to do. The biggest thing i did see on a game server that I always play (BF2142 titan server) on was the fact even with a low ping when i would usually see some lag from time to time, after the install I should still seen it when in heavy traffic (30 or so players in a small area) I had none and never seen any again my K/D ratio jumped threw the roof. I seen others lag but have no effect on my end. Yes I agree it is geared more for gamers, and is a nice add on if you can afford the price tag. Is it a must have thing???? Not really. Like others stated you can archive almost the same thing with a higher SLI vid card config or other methods. But when already running pretty much every thing top end why not go for a little more. I am running an AMD 6400+ oc, dule 8800 SLI, Big Foot K1, 10,000 Raptor HD, SB 5.1 live (old but still a goodie) 600w twin rail PSU SLI Ready all on a Asus M2N SLI Deluxe Mobo, G-5 mouse and G-15 key board. duel boot XP Pro/ Debian. duel Samsungs 932bw.
All I can say when hitting a lan party I am the fist one to get checked for an aim bot...
