Ethernet cards devices for Boygroup

Hi,Do you have favorite network cards devices that you think are more friendly for boygroup setups, things like speed,compatibility etc.

I,ve notice that even in very fast ethernet networks some machines works nicer than others so i have experience that sometimes machines that are supose to work much slower are more compatible in a way to the network and seem to be more fluent, therefore i,d like to know your experiences and if you know tools to do some device and benchmark that are realiable to know if some devices are better than other regarding vvvv compatibility.

cheers

i’m by no means an expert in boygrouping, but from my personal experience you can’t go wrong with intel NICs.
