Where did it go?

It has never existed, the .Net framework already has this kind of classes. That's why there's no binding for the system and network module.

What classes can be used instead?

I've looked at Stopwatch but apparently people are saying ElapsedTicks is messed up and ElapsedMilliseconds always returns 0 for me.

I've found Window.GetFrameTime the best way to sync update events etc. The .NET timer and StopWatch classes just don't seem to cut it when working to 10s of milliseconds. Try this:

Stopwatch is the most precise timer, it's the equivalent of QueryPerformanceCounter Windows API. Check Stopwatch.Frequency property to see how often it updates.
