I have a Asrock Extreme6 Z97 MOBO w/2 Ethernet LAN ports, WHICH IS BEST FOR GAMING?

sebastian869 · Apr 25, 2015

(Intel I218V)
(Realtek RTL8111GR)

Currently Im running the intel (In the BIOS you can enable one or the other or both, I don't know which scenario is best for both)
Wondering which driver/hardware is best for gaming? (Something like COD or Battlefield)

Thanks

Test them both and see if you will notice any diference, probably you wont, since Asrock does not even brag about gaming performance of any of those ports:

This site is great: http://speedmeter.de/speedtest/ (just click on test starten or speedtest starten - orange)

check if you will need any difference in results between the two ports. You only need to have both ports activated if you will use them both. I don't think having them both activated will aftect performance in any way, at most it will lead to a very little power consumption reduction.

The Intel I218V and the Qualcomm Atheros Killer E2200 series PCIe x1 Gigabit LAN are the same thing?

lcp1109 :

Another good line speed test site is dslreports.com, the thing is I want to keep the amt of drivers to a minimum particularly since there're are a few more that I don't plan or want to install. The same goes for USB 3.0 drivers there are Intel and Asmedia.

BTW Where can I get the newest Asmedia drivers, intel are relatively easy to get but asmedia doesn't seem to all downloads of new versions.
