Killer K1 NIC card still worth using? If so, where can I get drivers for Win 7 64-bit

Good Evening,

I have a Killer K1 card and wondered if it would serve any good to use it over the integrated NIC on my motherboard. Specs are as follows:

Motherboard: ASUS Z97-A with latest BIOS and latest NIC drivers
CPU: Intel Core i5 4670K
RAM: 16GB G.Skill Ripjaw series 1333
GTX 680 2GB
OCZ Vertex 2 SSD 90GB



Thanks, Jon-Paul
 
that motherboard has Intel LAN (pretty sure most if not all ASUS boards come with Intel LAN these days, at least all of the Z series have), and its going to be hard to get any better than that from a new PCI-e NIC, let alone an old PCI one.
 
Isn't this the same idea, except that it's now incorporated into certain motherboards?
One example:
GIGABYTE GA-G1.Sniper Z97
Onboard LAN - LAN Chipset - Qualcomm Atheros Killer E2201

This GIGABYTE GA-Z97X-UD5H board has dual LAN ports:
First LAN Chipset - Intel i217V
Second LAN Chipset - Qualcomm Atheros Killer E2201

Yes, its the same overpriced snake oil thats been around for a while
