Hey all,
Just installed a Trendware Gigabit NIC (Realtek Chipset based) into my home server, and a TrendWare Gigabit 8-port switch. My Abit motherboard has onboard 3Com 10/100/1000. Performance between the two is HORRIBLE.
Using Sandra 2004:
Latency: 113us
Speed: 9392KB/s (76939kbit/s)
This is essentiall 100 speed, not 1000.
I know my choice of hardware is not top-notch, but I thought I *might* get something out of the upgrade....If not, looks like I will have to pick up a 64-Bit card off of Ebay for the Server.
