"Killer Xeno Pro provides a clear performance benefit if the user encounters a heavy online gaming load, like multiple enemies or friends in the same area. If the user wants to download or upload files while gaming with no impact on performance, the Killer Xeno Pro excels at this task as well. Finally, if the user communicates with a voice chat program while gaming, Killer Technology and its Hardware Bandwidth Control provide a clear advantage to the gamer."
Smooth Gameplay During Fast Action - Bigfoot Networks Network Processing Unit (NPU) frees up vital CPU resources to boost frame rates and smooth out gameplay experiences during the even the most intense action.
Hardware-Accelerated Voice Chat - Hardware-accelerated voice chat is fully offloaded from the CPU, processed on Killer Xeno's dedicated audio chip and accelerated through Xeno's NPU. Killer Xeno is bundled with Mumble, a free and open-source, cross-platform voice application.

Hardware Firewall - High-performance, hardware-based security that keeps intruders out and lets you live worry-free in the DMZ. (Driver version 5.0.2.0 or later)
Bandwidth Control - The Killer Xeno's Hardware Bandwidth Control technology serves as a Network "Traffic Cop" that smoothes the online experience across all Internet applications - VoIP, streaming video, downloads and web surfing - even while gaming.
