X-Fi cards have needed heatsinks for 3+ years now.
That's not a heatsink but an EMI shield.
The Titanium has 2MB while Titanium Fatal1ty has 64MB. (X-RAM isn't really used)
The KillerNIC is not really a gaming NIC as hardware NIC. Its specs are pretty impressive for what it is. Even the basic TOE NICs cost $100-300.

That's almost as bad as bigfoot networks trying to justifies the 200$ price tag on there "Gaming NIC" that has a big K shaped heatsink. Don't buy unless you want to waste your money! I feel bad for the people who feel for that gimmick. Lesson learned, don't buy Fatal1ty gear at all. OCZ Makes "Fatal1ty" PSU's that cost like 80$ more for the same 700W PSU. |

Since when does that make a difference, that's just another one of those marketing things. If all xram is doing is saving your systems ram than I can spare some, especially with 8gigs. So your paying 100$ extra for 64mb of ram, that's nice...

Don't get me wrong, I don't think $100 is justified. I was just making an observation.
Got mine when it was only $25-35 more than its regular counterpart plus they had a sale going on just my card, so I jumped on it. I've had it for a few years now and have been pleased with it. But the dang thing is huge. Got it on my lowest slot and it still feels like it's contricting my airflow for my bottom video card.

100USD for 64mb of ram is a great deal man, you can either get that XRam which is super leet compared to normal ram because it has an X, or you can get some measily 4gb of Corsair Dominator 1066 for 70 dollars.
There's no comparison, get XRAM or ****.
