i have 2 nics in my pc. 1 is onboard, 1 is pci. would i get any benefit from enabling both and connecting them to a router? liek faster download speeds or anything?

my guess is no and i haven't actually tried it yet, but figured i'd ask

no man. there would be zero change. if i were u, i would disable the onboard in your bios and go with the pci nic. it will speed up your system marginally.
