For some cards you can do this. For instructive information on the effects 
look at the saga of sunos 3.x and NFS over wans. Old SunOS turned off UDP
checksums for NFS. It provided an adequate demonstration that UDP checksums
for NFS are needed. Sun of course addressed this design error long long 
ago.
