The "network interface card" in your computer could be in a number of locations, I would need more specifics (motherboard, year, manufacture) in order to exactly tell you. But you can look at the motherboard and find out yourself.


Where you plug your network cable into (RJ 45) is soldered onto your mother board with fine copper lines running from the individual pins of the soldered component. The fine copper lines are called traces, so if you trace the trace you should be able to follow it back to the NIC if the NIC is integrated. If you have an expansion card for your NIC well then... it's on there.
