Raspberry Pi 3B+ puts a gigabit ethernet controller... on their failtacular USB2 controller that can't handle more than 300mbps. What are you doing. Stahp.pic.twitter.com/e6pwe4Qw8h
Also remember that's 300mbps half-duplex (because USB2). And that's "theoretical max". Even though sane USB2 controllers (like on PCs) actually go faster *in practice* (I've seen 330mbps for plain bulk). In before it actually tops out at 200mbps or so in practice.
I mean, it's still faster
That's what I was also wondering! Gigabit Ethernet using USB 2.0? Whaaa?
Doesn’t USB affect the CPU performance as well?
My first thought too, but if I had to guess why, my first look would be at part sourcing since they need to go pretty high volume... Still an upgrade but weird choice at first glance indeed!
Literally just thought the same thing as I just received e-mail from my Pi-pusher... in the past six months I have discovered very interesting alternatives to the Pi¹ for example the @thepine64 or ODROID.

They tried so hard, and got so far, but in the end, it doesn't even matter...
Btw. NXP seriously fucked up i.MX6* ethernet as well. ERR004512: The theoretical maximum performance of 1 Gbps ENET is limited to 470 Mbps (total for Tx and Rx). The actual measured performance in an optimized environment is up to 400 Mbps.
Though it was still freescale back then I guess
