200mbps fiber internet on 100mbps lan/ethernet card?

I have upgraded our internet connection to 200mbps fiber optic internet but our lan/ethernet/NIC card is 100mbps only. My question is does the 200mbps still goes through my computer in using the internet even if my lan card is 100mbps only?
I tried to speedtest and it says 96mbps only. Do i need to upgrade my lan card to gigabit to benefit the 200mbps internet or not?

Answer #1
Yes, You need to upgrade lan card. OR you will get maximum 100 mbps through your connection.

OR You can buy a WIFI LAN Network Card Adapter

And best use a cat5e or cat6 ethernet cable.
Forget about wi fi for your main PC.
The speeds that get quoted are really just theoretical, and affected by a lot of factors !
Answer #3
Yeap, definitely you need upgrade
Answer #4

Answer #5
That’s like me asking if I can get my 1000gbps Internet card to speed up my 100mbps Internet, no, you can’t.
