Rivet Networks announces their Killer E3000 Ethernet Controller, which aims to deliver 2.5 Gbps transfer speeds and be optimized for gaming. The Killer E3000 is installed in desktops, notebooks and motherboards from manufacturers such as Alienware and Acer.



Automatic recognition of game data packets

With Advanced Stream Detect technology important network traffic such as online games and video streaming should be automatically detected, classified and prioritized. The Killer E3000 prioritized games before all other applications and should, therefore, allow a particularly low(er) latency while playing.

Improved software with new features

With the new Ethernet controller and the Killer Wireless AC 1550, the revised Killer Control Center 2.0 is also introduced. The new software is designed to give players more information and control over their network. As usual, priorities can be set for games, applications and web pages, as well as bandwidth limitations. In addition, GameFast and Intelligence Engine are introducing two new features. GameFast is designed to automatically pause processes that are not needed for gaming , providing up to 10 percent more CPU power and 20 percent more memory, according to the manufacturer. According to the manufacturer, players will experience a faster and more responsive gameplay. Intelligence Engine analyzes network health and automatically adjusts the killer settings to improve network performance. If it can not be auto-tuned, Intelligence Engine will suggest to the user how to optimize their network.

E3000 is DoubleShot Pro compatible

The Rivet Networks Killer E3000 is compatible with a killer wireless product DoubleShot Pro. The technology detects the fastest network connection and uses it for prioritized network traffic, while the other connection is used for the rest of the traffic. Users can also decide which applications use the wireless or wired connection.
