I would buy this sooner than a physics card!
HardOCP have a somewhat positive review - slightly better frame rate as you noow have a dedicated NIC not using system bandwidth and clock cycles, and slightly better ping. It is not snake oil - but it is not magic either.

If I was specc'ing a gaming system in which money was not a powerful consideration then I would get one. Also - unlike a graphics card - this will not be obsolete when it comes to your next system (unless they phase out PCI). So it may have some longevity

Trust me... im not!
Very pricey and from the looks of the review i just read there are still a lot of problems with this. I think once the problems are ironed out it may become quite popular
You gotta admit though.... They make it sound amazing on their website
