Of course. The only problem is that the PCI-E 16x slot next to my PCI-E 1x slot is taken with a RAID controller, so my options are limited to tiny cards.

That one looks fine, but the Newegg comments seem to indicate it is also a Realtek-based device. Would it not have the same problem?

Sure enough, I apparently have a Realtek device as well. But swapping motherboards is absolutely not an option for me... Surely there's something that can be done!

Well, can you buy better ethernet card?

I think this is related to ethernet controller or irq issues on motherboard.
