No, actually I don't... But with a RTL-8169 based card, continuous load (like backups) and large file copying my transfer rate dropped to a measly 10-20 kbit/s, when I swapped it for a 3Com card I have a rate close to 980 kbit/s with low load on the rest of the network.
I poked around AMD64 motherboard with integrated gigabit and found the following chips:
RealTek RTL8110S 3Com 3C940 Gigabit Marvel Gigabit (ASUS K8V)
Are they supported by SuSE 9.1 and what are their respective merit?
I can only answer for the 3C940 chip (It's nominated as 3C2000 when it's a stand alone card) and it's got support for almost every O/S you can find. Look at www.3com.com and search for the 3C2000. Great card! Anders.
