It depends on what you try to do.

There are quite a few gbps NICs out there that are both good and cheap. (Intel EXPI9301CTBLK comes to mind)

If you are planning on moving to wireless setup, AC is a good choice. I have an Apple 802.11AC TC and it works great on my rMBP, my wife's MBA and my NAS. Transfer on LAN level is very good. I can get up to 70MB/s although it's not sustainable unless we are in the same room as the TC. But signal strength is great overall. I used to have an Airport Express as a Wi-Fi extender for 2nd floor. I got rid of that after upgrading to AC.
