Theoretical max of 32/33 is ~125mbyte/sec in burst mode, but you arent ever going to get that. Intel says youre lucky to get 600mbit out of 32/33, and this is confirmed in real world testing. > http://www.terasolutions.com/ builds PC boxes which have been tested up to > 2Gbps+. Yes and theyre 64/66 which just proves my point, thanks. Or maybe you could bother reading posts next time before responding to them. > Who cares about tech bigotry when experience speaks for itself? > Only the team that doesn't have the winning tech. > I could care less what anyone uses, I'm just sharing my experiences.
