     also >2.5G ethernet
     literally why, there's nothing to plug it into
     should've just used the 1G built into the chipset, if I want faster I'll buy a 10G card

     @izaya also 10GBase-T eats power for breakfast and to my eternal sadness people don't want to deal with SFP+

     @izaya 2.5g is cheap and I imagine Realtek 2.5G MAC-PHY combinations are very cheap
     
     And it's not DoA, it's new and gaining ground because it's the fastest you can run over Cat5E. In particular it's becoming common for feeding wireless access points without having to pull fiber

     @izaya Sometimes there's a header for it on the motherboard but when the I/O plate has extra space like this… come on.

     @lanodan there is! but I know the chipsets always implement two ports, and there's only one header!
