Some of the MSI boards even have the 10Gig port on the mainboard.
https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/PRESTIGE-X570-CREATION for example.

The 10Gig port is apparently this chip:

Based on this image:

Supposedly it does 5 speeds (100M, 1G, 10G, 5G and 2.5G, but not 10M).

Appears to be supported by the atlantic driver in linux as of 4.11 kernel.

Someone benchmarked it against an intel X540 and found performance and
CPU load were identical.
