Review on ๐Ÿ’ป UGREEN Gigabit Ethernet PCI Express PCI-E Network Controller Card - Transform Your Desktop PC with Lightning-Fast 10/100/1000Mbps RJ45 LAN Connectivity! by Carlos Phillips

More is not always better.

Very happy with this network card! This is exactly what I needed to fix a specific issue with my onboard LAN controller. The minimum Tx buffer setting on my embedded LAN was too high for some specific applications, causing input lag, and could only be set in increments of 8 buffer units. The buffer ranges for this NIC are Tx=1-128 in increments of 1 and Rx=1-512 in increments of 1. This allowed me to fine tune the buffers according to the amount of Rx and Tx data. And 4 RSS questions! This is ideal when you need a small, low-latency stream of data instead of a large stream or packet of data. This relatively inexpensive network adapter has almost every other Intel I219-v LAN function on my Z370 motherboard. I will include screenshots of the W10 Advanced Driver Options tab at the time of publication. Chipset Realtek RTL8111g. The pictures provided by Revain/Seller show the item/PCB/Chipset as Rev 1.0 and 2.0, the item I received is Rev 3.0.

Pros
  • Ideal for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Fine
