As far as I can tell Linux supports practically any card you'll find in the market.
What I would do if I were you is: 1. see what your favourite store offers, make double-sure they give you the right model number (make it clear to them that if it doesn't work with your PC then you'll give it back for money) 2. check the net for "Hardware-HOWTO" (is this the most up to date document to check?) and the sources of your current kernel for support to this card. It would be interesting to hear what you come up with (models and prices). I might be in the market for a multi-port card soon if you see anything like this.
