NIC capable of performing at high FSB settings...?

[AmazonRasta]

I found out today that the reason I'm not able to reach 150MHz on the FSB is because the POS NIC that came with Rogers@Home can't handle the higher PCI speed (well, not that high, but higher than 33.3MHz ).

Anyways, can somebody recommend to me an NIC that is capable of running at a higher PCI speed?

I've had a lot of success running Intel PRO/100+ cards at very high (160+ FSB). You can usually find a good deal on eBay, i got mine for $5.

Intel or Linksys have worked for me in the past, however HIGH FSB is the domain of the 3com. They usually test higher than any ohter nic.

Actually, not to start a flame war or anything.... i've had some issues with 3com cards at high FSB...

I had a 905C that would cause BSODs at anything higher than about 150. I didn't try with another similar card... so it could be a fluke... but thought you should know.

Netgear FA311 on my KK266-R @ 165mhz FSB, or the Linksys. The Intel Pro 10/100 is also good, but usually more expensive..
