    Can Killer 1550 or Intel 9560 work on Z170?

    I have Killer 1535.

    I just realized in HWiNFO these speed number. How am I supposed to get those!? I think not. But what this number is showing basically?
    I know about Killer Double Shot Pro or what ever it is called, but even then I wouldn't be able to get these numbers. Explanation?

    Wifi speeds depend on so much like the router, distance, interference. You will NEVER hit ideal speeds.

    The 9260 would be the latest option as the 9560 requires inbuilt wifi components on the chipset.

    I know that.

    But am I able to successfully install 1550 or 9260 in my EUROCOM SKY X6W ?

    You asked why you would never see those numbers...

    But yes the 9260 I recommended would fit, that's why I offered it as a suggestion.

    You haven't read my first post :) I asked that in first post.

    So Killer 1550 will work also on my Z170 board?
