What Cat998 said is correct, it has an NPU that reduces the load on your processor, and it reduces the latency between data being sent over the buses. However, the only real gain of a network card like that is it reduces your network latency by 20-40ms, not to mention that rate is not consistent. As JBall said as well, its the biggest waste of money, ever.
