@umbradark or anyone from Vates.
I have not read all the details so I apologize up front. Not sure if this is helpful or note but I have at work 2 Dell R660 with 8.3 running no issues this was from a fresh install. I did not have to disable any nic in bios but i am not using the BCM5720 but it is there and active if i wanted to.
So far everything is stable that I can tell. If you need me to pull any information that will help just let me know. Below is my hardware information.
