Not much. You can run it with one network card, but you'll have to run it in trunk mode. That will also limit you to 500 mbps on a gigabit network.
I've run with on an old dual-core cpu with 4GB of memory, and it was still able to pump out gigabit speeds.
The best internet I could subscribe to where I'm at is 1024 Mbps down, 50 Mbps up. I'll add that to the post I guess it is relevant since so many people have fibre. (sigh)
That is actually dependent on what you are doing. With gigabit ethernet being full duplex, you can transfer 1Gb/s both up and down at the same time.
This would mean that if he has a single port, if he was downloading a file from the internet, he could still reach 1Gb/s. If he, however, had 1Gb up and down, he could only download at 500Mb/s and upload at 500Mb/s simultaneously.
His upload being so much lower than his download would lead to him not likely noticing any difference.
