you can use a PCIE card but without a hub 5 or a more advance balancing setup you wont get over the speeds you are getting now on a single device VM over provision connection so if you maxing out your PC other devices can still access the remaining bandwith,

i use PFsense to balance my ports in modem mode and have a 2.5Gbe network and can access the full speed. but its a fair bit of tinkering really to just get the extra 100odd meg
