ASUS ROG Rapture GT-AC2900 Gaming Router review




We review a rather dandy ASUS ROG Rapture GT-AC2900 Gaming Router this premium gaming router is compatible with the new AC standard aka WIFI 5. So what is the router about, is it a redressed RT-AC86U with stunning looks or is there more to this release? This dual-band 5000 MHz and 2400 MHz router now gets an NVIDIA seal of approval. Meaning that it has been optimized for game streaming.

I was wondering WTF is a gaming router
So the main differences over the AC86U are the RGB lighting and that this does 160mhz width on 5ghz? Does it do 80+80?

The RGB lighting is for if you have the socket near the door way and can walk about the hour without turning the lights on

I agree. I'm switching back with my next build, at the latest.
