Does it matter which?

Hi everyone. Right to the point. I have a Asus Maximus X Hero, which comes with the Intel I219-V onboard network. Well that part decided not to work. Went from intermediate to non functioning in a day. Anyway, I am out of warranty so no new board. Thankfully I have a Intel E1G44HTBLK I340-T4 from DIY NAS I wasn't using. Am I gaining or losing functionality going to an older but server part? I am just curious to the difference to both parts and how it benefits or doesn't benifit my build. Any information is helpful. Thank you.

For a normal desktop, it work matter at all.

Even though it's older it's still Gigabit and if anything comes with more features than your built-in NIC as that's usually the natural progression of the enterprise. They get the features before the features show up in desktops.

That's a good point.
