I was reading some other review on this very card that said it severely limited the speed of network file transfers at the 'gain' of marginally lower latencies while gaming, which could have been easily attributable to isp attenuation or margin of error. I think they hit the nail on the head recommending a good wireless router with qos or a new video card. $130 for a bloody network card that doesnt really do much and (if my information is correct) actually manages to slow down network transfers is an absolute joke.
