EU Cheap Dual 10Gb Intel NICs (82598EB)

[Zac_K]

Hey,
I found those NICs (I linked the cheapest offer, the seller has more of them in diffrent auctions) today.
Those are the cheapest Intel 10G NICs I have ever seen and as far as I can see the only issues are:

• missing SR-IOV support
• You have to use DACs, optics do not work
• (maybe) the power draw of 10W (12W max)
