Remember that the PCI bus is much slower than the chipset where the native controller is connected. You can never get full performance on the PCI bus. The fact that it even matches the onboard SATA ports is a good thing.
Despite the speed limit, you are getting the other features like NCQ, so you are getting better performance overall.
