Network

Network performance is one of those areas that can drastically change from board to board. This time around MSI went with an Intel NIC where they normally use a Killer NIC for their gaming and MPower boards. So how did the Intel NIC perform? Well it was actually the fastest of all three X99 boards I have tested with an impressive 912.5 average speed!
