berto Posted July 23, 2003 Posted July 23, 2003 Are PCI NIC cards any better than onboard LAN controllers or are they pretty much the same? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LobbDogg Posted July 23, 2003 Posted July 23, 2003 depends, most onboard NICS are only half duplex unless its like an onboard 3com or equivalent. Some PCI NICS are only half duplex as well, so its good to check out before you buy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
berto Posted July 23, 2003 Posted July 23, 2003 Im guessing this one would be better: http://d-link.com/products/?pid=122 . I think it said something about half and full duplex? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sYstEmATiC Posted July 27, 2003 Posted July 27, 2003 Yeah its a decent card, I have the same one in my server i did have the same one but i took it out and replaced it with an old 3com (out of a 233mhz lol) and it is MUCH faster. im about to put it in my main rig instead of my cs server.
