    Realtek, don’t they have issues with drivers in FreeBSD? Or am I horribly out of date.

    In any case I’m excited, even if i barely tap into 1gbe capability most of the time.

      Realtek Freebsd drivers are ‘ok’ now, but that was a long fight.

      Outside of wifi (I mean Jesus christ) most of freebsd networking got fixed a decade ago, but you still need to stick with common-ish gear.

      Freebsd on kvm though, that’s a game breaker, especially with sriov mellanox.

      Not sure if they provide official drivers for FreeBSD. Intel is usually a safer bet in that case.
