 I have searched the web and don't find an easy answer to this question, but can I just remove the Killer software and still use the NIC?
 
would there be any issues with doing this??
 
thanks

    You can, just need the driver installed. I actually use the intel (top one ) myself.

     Ok I removed just the software and it still works. I had the intel NIC stop connecting to the internet a couple of times, not the network just the internet, not sure what's causing it. It hasn't happened in a week though so I'm gonna keep on using that one.
     I run the windows network helper thing and it says it can't identify the problem, no surprise there, but I have no idea what's causing it.
     It could be I just have too much stuff plugged into my PC, I may just disable the Killer NIC in BIOS until I need it.
     
    thanks guys
