But not the Intel Foxville i225, but by the date they probably will be using the chip version #3, bug free.

Intel are nice in lan... very compatible with everything too.

What's wrong with the realtek ones? It is a category i never paid much attention but i never really encounter any problems with realtek .... although by reputation alone if i am 50-50 on an offering and one has intel lan i would get the intel one, but my question is this ...what makes it better than the realtek one , was i just lucky to never get problems ?

- Realtek 8125 is running out of buffers if doing very intense UDP traffic and just freezes (followed by a driver reset and loss of connection)
- (earlier?) Intel i225 versions are bugged and sometimes fails to see the link at all, or just loses connection for no reason
This generation of 2.5G chips is borked... hopefully in 2021 we'll have proper stable 2500Base-T NICs...
I learned to deal with mine, but it's still annoying.
Oh, and 2.5G switches are still as rare as leprechauns...

Overheating?

"If the RTL8125 is dropping connection due to overheating it may be relatively easy to fix the issue by sticking a thermal pad on it. It’s on the back side of the B550I board under the back plate but it’s not touching it, there is an air gap."
