There is a huge difference between that server card and a desktop card. Unless you need a card for a big corporate server (do you?), you probably don't want that card. It has 4 Ethernet ports and some type of off loading, which is totally unnecessary on a desktop. Oh, and it costs hundreds of dollars.
