MSI X99A GODLIKE GAMING CARBON (LGA2011-3) Motherboard Review

Networking Performance
Ethernet
The motherboard’s Killer E2400 network adapter is capable of superb bandwidth and reports great numbers in both UDP and TCP testing. However, there was a huge range between 283.3 and 1607 Mbps when using the TCP interface.
WiFi – 2.4GHz and 5GHz
Finding accurate results for WiFi hardware can be tricky and the speeds depend on various factors. Please note, all the previous results were achieved by the last reviewer and this is something to take into consideration. I’m currently preparing new WiFi tests and charts to achieve better performance in future articles. Despite this, the motherboard managed consistent results and posted the fastest UDP figure thus far. Granted, it’s eclipsed the ASUS X99 Rampage V Extreme in TCP benchmarks.
Here we can see the motherboard fares very well when using a 5GHz wireless connection and achieves similar numbers to the original GODLIKE model.
