Review of the BigFoot Killer NIC M1: The Lag Slayer

Since the dawn of the online gaming age, millions of players have consistently hated one thing: lag. That small, split second delay, although seemingly unimportant, makes the difference between winning a fight, or loosing it; living, or dying.

The annoying pest is usually the computer, because the processor needs to manage the network connection while running the complicated, memory intensive game. Some gamers have already taken measures to speed up their PC, like upgrading RAM, or adding a video card, but results often vary, and lag still might remain.

The developers at Bigfoot Networks play video games as well, so they decided to invent a product that will banish lag from their game-play experience forever. Some call it the holy grail. Others call it the BigFoot Networks Killer NIC M1.

This network card  is more than an addition to your gaming-machine – it is actually an independent Linux computer, dedicated entirely to managing the data coming in and out of your PC, taking some of the load off of your processor, and therefore speeding up framerate and lowering server ping (the amount of time – usually in milliseconds – it takes for your computer to communicate with the server).

This unique feature also allows small programs to be run on the M1, like a firewall to protect your computer, or a Bittorrent manager, so you can download files without using your Windows machine, accelerating both the download, and your gaming.

The M1 is a breeze to use, as all it requires is a hardware installation, making it truly ‘Plug-n-Play.’ Starting at $279, it is a justifiable purchase for any online gamer or multitasker, and after a few rounds of Counterstrike or Crysis, will  prove itself as a life-saving device.
