How much can you improve network throughput with a high-end NIC?

At 100mbit I've always seen latency around 100-200ms with onboard ethernet. Unless onboard is worse with gigabit connections (doubtful), I think you're comparing the Intel cards against a lemon.

You're also comparing using two different motherboards. Try comparing each with the Intel to see if just one of them is misbehaving.
