Quality


The build quality of this network card is on par with what i expected, providing a solid and functional product.


First and foremost, this network card delivers outstanding performance.


I previously had a cheaper 10gb network card with a bright red heat sink, but it was very flaky - constantly going down.


Windows update didn’t recognize the hardware, and the manufacturer’s website didn’t have any readily available drivers.

Price


Additionally, the value for the money is exceptional.


This 10 gb card has good reviews and good price.

Packaging/appearance


The packaging was fantastic, and the install was as simple as expected.

Competitiveness


I connect my pc to an aruba s2500 switch in the basement via om4 fiber - my truenas server also connects to the aruba via 10gb fiber.
