RE: Network Card Performance

My immediate question would be do you have a gig line to plug into that gig card?

I have a gig card in my desktop, but the network line is only 100Mb.

As for performance gain, with the gig connection, you're correct, it depends. If you have had a network bottleneck then you may see some increased speed, but with 3 databases and file sharing, I would look more at io.
