Just look around the list on the continuous problems people have with that and the nve card. I would never feel safe putting these in production.

I would agree with nve but not had any problems with bge
here and we put them under quite a bit of load as busy
DB, Web, FTP and Samba servers not to mention metric tone
of game servers.


Sure, not to say they are all broken, but many do have problems, so it becomes a gamble.

If you want a specific netcard nothing to stop you putting
in a PCI-X card which is what we do when we want Fibre, you
dont tend to find many MB netcards are fibre :)

Yes there is, i need a 1U single Opteron board, with 2 integrated cards. I guess the current AMD offerings do not meet my requirements. I am working on a commercial product, which is an all in one 1U appliance (running fbsd of course), and i had to go with Intel just for reasons of availability, stability, and support.
