Reasonable price and best performance. I didn't choose X710 as they had incredible problems on linux in the=20 beginning. Seems most is fixed with Firmware 6.X. X520 has best compatibility, but a LAGG with LACP only gives 13Gbit, so=20 if you want to bundle better choose mlnx. I have some Chelsio 580 cards with 40G which work great, but you need=20 fresh hardware with good cooling. With my old lab servers NICs were=20 silently torn down because of heating. This is no adivse .. only my private observations :) Best, Michael
