DAG Endace cards have long been used for Snort, and Suricata also has
support for them:
http://www.endace.com/endace-dag-high-speed-packet-capture-cards.html
as well as
Napatech to: http://www.napatech.com/products/capture_adapters/1x40g_pcie_nt40e2-1_capture.html
Myricom http://www.myricom.com/products/network-adapters/10g-pcie2-8c2-2s-sync.html
Suricata also supports PFRING: http://www.ntop.org/products/pf_ring/
which improves capture speed in *nix os's.
