I have the Asus A7N8X Deluxe that has the nVidia 10/100 and also the 3Com 10/100. What's the point of having two? Will I see any increase performance if say I connect two cables from my router to my PC? Thanks.

Nah, no performance gain there. The only purpose of having two NICs is Internet sharing, or to be able to connect to two different networks.
