No, I haven't used a gigabit network. But it still ruins the point with 2 x 125 MB/s NICs sharing a 133 MB/s bus along with a sound card (as well as most certainly a bunch of other integrated components). I can't live with stuttering sound, that's what bothers me the most. But you don't seem to have any problems, I've got a X-Fi too but if you're on a GLAN and running it without issues I guess I'm safe as currently my Internet connection is "just" 100 Mbit, but this is limited by the ISP (and I use all of those 100 Mbit very often for extended periods of time). The actual fiber is rated for 1 Gbit. And 1 Gbit is a total possibility for the LAN, but no it probably wouldn't be used to full (as HDDs may turn out the limiting factor). But it still ruins the point of dual GLAN. And again, I'm most worried about the PCI sound card.

Yeah, the PCI sound card is my main issue here.

Yep, that sucks. Thanks for the vdroop mod though. I'm not sure I understand how to use that picture really, but I guess I'll scoop around a bit more.
