I've two PCs distant 100m/300ft. one from the other.
Within a budget of $1000 what's the fastest current solution for
connecting them?
Are network cards, cables and plugs certified for 10gibabit/s Ethernet
already on the market?

And what PC would be capable to need it?

Do you PC's go beyond what a Gigabit NIC can offer? In other words, can they
deliver over +- 100 MB/sec?

I think that gigabit is the fastest that makes sense. The hard drives
cannot read fast enough to work faster than the gigabit speed. I have gigabit,
myself.
