You need to get the MAC address for the new card and replace the old card's MAC address value in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-<dev>. Specifically, edit the 'HWADDR="..."' line.
Recently, my onboard NIC failed. Before installing the new NIC, I edited that file and removed the HWADDR= line. When I brought the system up with the new card, it found, installed and configured the card without any intervention and It Just Worked. In fact there's no such line in the file, even now. (I just checked.) YMMV, of course, but I'd suggest trying this first, as it's the easiest way.
