Nice surprise!

I have to admit initially I had little faith into the whole NIC for gaming thing. I basically purchased the card for the teamspeak feature which is not currently supported.

Anyway after a few tests to my surprise my latency went down a bit generally like 50ms, not much and nothing to warrant 125$.

But after playing my mmo's I have to admit the card work some magic.

See me an my wife play in the same room and share the same internet connection, so it's pretty easy to compare in real time. My current mmo, Aion, give me a latency between 200ms and 400ms, with this card I get 150-300ms, but...

During my daily 1-3 hours of gaming session I experience lag spikes, I mean almost every healthy populated mmo have their share of lag spikes. Sometimes the spikes can reach 600ms up to 850ms for a brief period of time, we're talking 1-3 seconds. Not a big deal. But still enough to see player jump around and cast bar skip, or even have like 2-5 events happen at once on the screen.

With the Xeno Pro card all i can say is WOW! Those lag spikes are a thing of the past, I no longer see them. I mean nuuuutin!

Another lovely side effect is that I no longer see jumpy player character on my screen, they all move smoothly now.

I'm very very pleased with the product and will purchase a second one for the wife, she loves mmo.
