intel Gigabit Et dual nic. With and without heatsink. Whats the difference.

[RimBlock]

Hi,

I bought what I thought was a quad nic but turned out to be 5x dual port nics (pic mixup and me not reading the description properly).

I have noticed that the Intel ET dual port has a couple of designs, with and without heatsink. What is the difference. I can only find the spec on Intels site for the 82576EB chipset and no pictures showing the alternatives based on this chipset.

Thanks

Ok, for any who are interested, the pic with the heatsink seems to be for the Intel dual port PT network card whilst the ET does not have one. Various places on-line seem to be using one pic to describe them all...... .
