Hello,the RJ45 Ethernet connector on my Dell Precision 690 Workstation(win7x64) is broken, which pci ethernet card is best/fast suited for this computer ?
Thanks

And Intel based Gigabit adapter would be your best bet most likely. They usually run about $30 new for the PCI-e versions, but you can snag a PCI version on Ebay for around $10 usually.

Note that PCI has a maximum theoretical throughput of 1Gbit, so having any other devices on the PCI bus will cause all devices to be slower. This is not an issue for PCI-e.

thanks for the quick reply, I'm hunting for a PCI-e, any tips left?

Something like that would work
