I dont know about those cards but I installed these in both my esx host and freenas and while I had to download and install the vib on vmware they have been working perfectly $18 dollars US. https://www.ebay.com/c/1863039215?iid=223666120333. They are pci 2.0, but the model with pci 3.0 should work as well on ebay they are only running a couple dollars more.
