It is my understanding that the latest version of the RPi (Pi4) has a
native full speed Ethernet interface, not through USB.
I also read that it needs a heat sink.

====================================

Didier,

It actually has a gigabit Ethernet, not connected over USB.

The RPi-4 doesn't "need" a heatsink.  It's design is intended to provide 
high-performance bursts to improve the perceived speed - i.e. to create a 
better user experience.  It has throttling if the CPU temperature gets too 
high, but it you need to run it continuously at full speed then you may need 
a fan.  A number of fans are available, for example:
