Can someone help me find a motherboard with a intel NIC built in besides these crappy realtek ones I'm seeing all over Thanks. The board will also need atleast two x8 slots.
This didn't really matter as I'm willing to go with any cpu for my file server build, chipset doesn't really matter as well to me. I just want a good solid board that is going to last me hopefully 5+ years.socket/desired chipset would be nice to know...
Alot of problems have been posted about realtek nics on the hardware forums. Also good news I just found out. I can fold with my unraid server I think I found one good super micro board but I'm so limited by the ram it can use, I've read out of every motherboard a super micro will be the pickiest out of them all...Nothing wrong with realtek onboard. Works just as good as onboard Intel.
Want the best then go dedicated nic.
