INTRODUCTION

 

 

 

 

    With everything evolving around us it was really a matter of time before PC components start evolving as well (although hardware should be the first to evolve/change) and so as a direct result of that in 2010 we saw the first CPU/GPU hybrids promising better performance than ever before. Things however did not stop there and so our friends over at Visiontek and Bigfoot Networks came up with the interesting idea to pair an graphics card with the best network gaming adapter currently in the market, the Killer 2100 Gaming Network Card.

    Now we have already taken a look at the Bigfoot Networks Killer 2100 Gaming Network Card so we will not be focusing on the how it works a lot in this review. We will however be putting the Visiontek 5770 Combo through several benchmarks to see what performance one can expect from it in both games and generally with everything network related. Now before we continue i really have to say that i was surprised in a pleasant way when i heard about this 5770/Killer 2100 combination but as you will also see later on it would be far better had Visiontek paired the Killer 2100 Gaming Network Card with a more powerful GPU and that is perhaps the only drawback of this product.
