Hi 

 

Any one have a view on best low power/temp 10Gb NIC.

 

Ideally 2 port sfp.

 

I have a HP523SFP runs hotter than the sun without adding active cooling as not designed for tower case.

 

 

Mellanox ConnectX-3 don't run very hot, still need some cooling over them, or at least a case with good airflow.

Any recommendations for where to purchase in uk/eu?

I bough mine on ebay, but not always from the same vendor.

Are they all Mellanox or do you have IBM OR DELL oem vers.

Some are OEM, but also have IBM or HP, don't believe I have any Dell.
