Running this in a PCIx8 slot on my Asus Z690 Maximus Hero motherboard.
This NIC does actually need a PCI X8 slot to get the full 10Gbps throughput. It will work in a slower slot (say a PCI X4 speed slot) - But the driver will complain, and your eventlog will show some warnings.
Download speeds are as expected. It just works as it should.
It's also running great in my Synology DS1819+.

I updated my review after owning two of these cards for the last 18 months.
