I'm not sure what you mean PCW,

The ip address of the host is 192.168.1.100 as far as I can tell. (The Mesa card is connected to enp3s0)
Code:
$ ip addr 1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN group default qlen 1000     link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00     inet 127.0.0.1/8 scope host lo        valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever     inet6 ::1/128 scope host noprefixroute        valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever 2: enp2s0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq state UP group default qlen 1000     link/ether 00:01:c0:33:50:2a brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff     inet 192.168.1.165/24 brd 192.168.1.255 scope global dynamic noprefixroute enp2s0        valid_lft 86236sec preferred_lft 86236sec     inet6 fe80::62f5:a9e5:df33:68d6/64 scope link noprefixroute        valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever 3: enp3s0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq state UP group default qlen 1000     link/ether 00:01:c0:33:50:2d brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff     inet 192.168.1.100/24 brd 192.168.1.255 scope global noprefixroute enp3s0        valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever     inet6 fe80::868a:991b:a25e:44d0/64 scope link noprefixroute        valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever 4: eno1: <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq state DOWN group default qlen 1000     link/ether 00:01:c0:3a:5b:8e brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff     altname enp0s29f1 5: eno2: <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq state DOWN group default qlen 1000     link/ether 00:01:c0:3a:5b:8f brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff     altname enp0s29f2

Late to the party, but I have recently switched both my machines to run from the Asrock N100DC-ITX board.
Latency is "fair" rather than good. But they are avaialble, run from 12V DC and can be booted from an M2 SSD for a neat installation in the machine cabinet.
www.mini-itx.com/~N100DC-ITX
(Unhelpfully, out of stock, maybe because I bought three of them from there.)
Apparently they are picky about memory, especially at 12V rather than 19V, so maybe buy memory at the same time.

The N100DC draws no more than ~20 W...
Basically a laptop CPU in a Mini-ITX format

I'm not sure what you mean PCW,

Your initial ping statistics had 3 and 4 usec times which are not
possible unless you are pinging the host.

Also the address range of enp3s0 overlaps enp2s0
 
This is why it's suggested to use the FPGA cards 10.10.10.10 address.
( as it will not overlap a local network DHCP range )

I tried to get the Mesa card on 10.10.10.10, but I never got that to work. I tried mesaflash --device 7i94t --addr 192.168.1.121 --set ip=10.10.10.10 before, but that didn't seem to change the boards IP address.

I ran the test again an now the values are probably more realistic:
Code:
$ sudo chrt 99 ping -i .001 -q -c 60000 192.168.1.121 PING 192.168.1.121 (192.168.1.121) 56(84) bytes of data. --- 192.168.1.121 ping statistics --- 60000 packets transmitted, 60000 received, 0% packet loss, time 59999ms rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.054/0.140/0.494/0.027 ms

What do you think about these values, and if they are good, are there any other tests you can recommend for this PC before I go all-in?

Perhaps his ethernet is just really, really speedy.

Not physically possible with a 100BT link 

100 Mbits/sec is 12.5 bytes/usec = ~5 usec for a minimum size packet
since packets need to be sent and echoed that's ~10 usec absolute
minimum for the smallest  (64 byte) packet (ignoring overhead and response time)
