[K12OSN] server giga nic - compatible

[Timothy Legge]

Hi

The cards look to be based on the Realtek 8169 chip. 
I have a couple of those for driver work but I have
never stress tested them.  The Realtek *8139* was not
a remarkably good nic but their price more than made
up for it.  

I would look for some benchmarks comparing the *8169*
to other 10/100/1000 chips and be ready to swap it if
necessary but at the price it would not hurt to try
it.
