We are using Dell PE 850s as well. The addon PCIe Intel NICs that Dell
offers (or at least did when we bought ours) work fine.

Hello all,
We have just brought a couple of Dell 850 servers to use as Pfsense firewalls.
Unfortunately I didn’t check too well and have found that the servers only have
PCIe slots. I can’t find specific info to say that Pfsense supports PCIe,
although I have found another mail on a FreeBSD site that said:
We use Intel's dual port gigabit PCIe adapters in dell servers with
Freebsd 6 without any problem.
They are supported by the "em" driver.
What I actually need is 4 extra network ports in each server so either 2xDual
port NICs or 1xquad port NIC in each server. Can anyone recommend cheep dual or
quad port PCIe NIC’s that are compatible with Pfsense.
Cheers for your help, Simon.
