    for all intents it seems to be the same card minus some gays name on it and a shielded cover ? with OEM added to it - GoNz0.

    Re: Remember when your Networking tab on Windows Task Manager was at 1% while online?

    why would that help?... it's at 70% of 100mbps

    anyway.. I have a gigabit lan switch... and I tried it.. and it went no faster, so it's only between the PC's with Gigabit lan cards and the gigabit port on my router.

    Exactly. So up to 1000mbps and you can get back to the good old days of single digit usage

    Recently connected two machines with gigabit ports together rather than via the 10/100 hub ... wow. I was not used to such speeds!

    @ work we have phones that require PoE, and we only have a 10/100 switch that does that currently ... feels like I'm going back to the stone ages now!
