It's about time that we see a move in network speed. I just hope that the compatible router prices can come down for a change.

I agree, at the moment network switches for 10GB is just stupidly high, the adapter becoming affordable but kinda useless if routers/switches don't come down in price.

Any idea on price ?
i see one on Amazon for $99.
I found it for $99.00 u.s. also at superbiiz.
Excuse my ignorance on net speeds etc., but my internet speed is 150mbps. Would using this card in my pc help with say gaming and watching movies? Or do I need a higher bandwidth input to see any difference using this card?
