The Mesa FPGA card replaces the parport card, and in some cases also
replaces the BoB.

The 5i25 and 7i92 replace only the Parport card and would retain the
same BoB. They can both be used with the same BoB as you currently
use, or you could use a 7i76 (probably overkill)

Alternatively you could look at a 7i96 or 7i76E which both connect to
the ethernet port and replace both the parport card and the BoB.

There are not any PCI cards which also directly replace the BoB, and
none that replace the stepper drivers.
