Hello, I'm seeking a 10GB Ethernet NIC to upgrade my network infrastructure. I've previously used the Asus XG C100C, but I'm facing problems with durability and consistent performance. An Intel NIC would be ideal, though it might be a bit out of reach for my budget right now. Any recommendations on what others have found effective? A little background info: my system runs as a basic storage server (z390-a i7-8700k, 64GB DDR4, 3200MHz, 750W PSU, Chenbro case).

A few older Intel 10 GbE cards are appearing on the market, refurbished by different sellers, while new ones from Chinese vendors are priced around $65 USD. Could it be worth taking the chance?
