Jeff GeerlingI tested WisdPi's 10G Ethernet Expansion Card for Framework computers.
Good news: It can hit 9.4 Gbps, in certain scenarios. And it'll be < $100.
Bad news: It uses USB-C and that means the combinations where it'll hit full speed are limited 🥲

Impressive.
How long do you think it will be until it will be worth upgrading to 10Gbps ethernet for the "average joe" ?

@AG100pct I think 2.5G is still adequate for most use cases. The nice thing is 2.5G is now nearing the pricing of 1G from a few years ago, and most new switches and motherboards seem to settle on 2.5 as a baseline.
10G still needs a few more low cost / low power chipsets before it'll be able to take off in the same way.

I agree.
Of course this all requires a higher bandwidth connection to really benefit from.
Thanks for the reply
