I don't know about 10/100. For 10/100/1000 I use Intel quad port boards. They work fine.
Sorry to hijack this thread, but it could be relevant. As matter of interest, do these cards offer lower throughput than 4x single 1GB cards?
Depends mostly on if you are using PCI/PCI-X vs PCI-express. At high bit rates you can saturate the old PCI bus. A single gigabit port can pretty much saturate a 32-bit PCI bus at 33MHz.
PCI-express can go a lot faster.
