please don't use mii-tool, ethtool is a much better option and
actually works with gigabit cards.

um, I'm a little confused why every interface was named eth0 when it
tried to come up.
you didn't mention what kernel you're using.

you can enable MSI and not share interrupts on this platform, it will
at least help your PCIe adapters.

what does 'ip link' or 'ifconfig -a' show?
