Whoops, my apologies. I completely missed your question!

At this time I believe the answer is no.

Does the Xeno Pro work with USB headet/mic combos, such as the Logitech G35?

No answer to the above?

When you install the driver for the Killer Xeno Pro, you are also installing the software for the Firewall.

Yeah, I'm afraid we don't offer wireless capabilities using that. For now, our products are designed for wired connections only.

Dumb question maybe. Does this have a usb in back for use with wireless?

I believe the USB is only for attaching an external drive for torrenting files without having to download them to your internal computer drive.

The card is designed to bypass the Windows Networking stack, take off some of the load from your CPU when processing heavy network data, and offload UDP. You gain benefits such as a lower ping, smoother frame rates in high intensity situations - meaning you won't be hitching, freezing up, etc... when there's a lot going on in the game, meaning a lot of network traffic coming your way. You can also get a FPS benefit out of it as well.

You can take a look at some of the info in this thread:

Anywho, since the ultra thread has been revived from the old forums, I should mention this here too: I am keeping a list, as bomberboysk has stated. Send me a PM with your e-mail address if you'd like, and I'll release news to everyone on that list once it comes in.

Well, i emailed them awhile back and they added me to an ever growing list of people they will send emails to when the release any information...nothing released as of yet afaik. If they stopped work on it im sure they would have released that info...

Richthegamer999,

"How about the killer Xeno Ultra bad ass do anyone one know relase date of it??"

So many, many cruel and evil comments I could make.

M u s t r es Is t. MU s T m a IN t aiN cOnT ro L.

Ok, Rich, just get real calm about this a wait a few months, then check back to see how this card is doing. Right now things aren't looking so great. No related suicides from Xeno Pro to my knowledge, but I've come close a couple of times. Don't worry about the Xeno Ultra until someone gets the bugs fixed and the missing features added. IMHO, you would just be wasting your money at this point. But, EVGA may turn this around and we may end up with a usable product, so keep checking back to get the lastest information.

How about the killer Xeno Ultra bad ass do anyone one know relase date of it??

Xeno Ultra

PCIe interface, which provides for higher throughput

Killer Xeno NPU--a dedicated smart packet processor for all network operations, which ensures the delivery of time-sensitive data like game control and VoIP

Plug-and-play compatibility with all games

Windows network stack bypass, which provides for direct-to-game interrupts

Integrated audio chip offloads VoIP operations to Killer Xeno NPU for "hiccup-free" voice communications while gaming

Onboard RAM (256 MB for the Ultra version and 128 for the Pro version) enables applications such as firewall, VoIP chat, and bandwidth control to run on the card simultaneously without system-performance degradation

Firewall: Stops intruders with zero gaming-performance impact. Based on robust Linux iptable implementation.

Bandwidth control, so you can prioritize network traffic for each application by setting bandwidth priorities and max/min limits through a simple interface

Onboard status display: Xeno Ultra model includes a customizable LED display for caller ID, network statistics, game information or any user-customized messages.

Does anyone know the relase date for this
