I have a Realtek PCIe FE Family Controller in my desktop. I want to upgrade it to a PCIe GBE Controller. Does it matter what brand I upgrade to? Should I stick with a Realtek or doesn't it matter. HP Lists a PCIe 10/100/1000 Base-T INTEL Gigabit NIC card, but it is not available through them.
My desktop is an HP 500B Microtower with an INTEL Core 2 duo E7500 @ 2.93 GHz/1066MHz. I also have 4GB of memory, PC3-8500. I am running Windows 10, 32 bit
The desktop has a Realtek PCIe FE Family Controller. I checked the driver and it can't be updated to 1000 gigabit.
The HP website says a 10/100/1000 Base-T INTEL Gigabit NIC card (490367-001) - Includes low profile bracket
Can I use another brand or should I stick with a Realtek?
