Use the I219-V the other one goes over PCIE.

My Z370 board has got three LAN options. While I wanna use the AQUANTIA AQC107 to connect my PC to my HTPC, I don't know which of the two Intel solutions I should use for internet (gaming). It's an Intel I219V and an Intel I211AT. The first one seems to have a lower power consumption and is quite new. However the spec sheet of the other one seems more "developed" but I'm no expert. Will there be any differences or benefits for web activities and online gaming?

You won't notice a difference between these two ports. They are both made by Intel, so they are high-quality and reliable. Power consumption difference is minimal.
