Thinking of repurposing a slightly surplus HTPC machine in to a 10GBE Router for home use.
HTPC runs a slightly old Intel Core i5-4590 (3.3 GHz) on an Asus Z97i-Plus desktop class motherboard and is in a Streacom FC-5 case.
Idea is to keep cost a down and simply add in a 4 port 10GBE port - but no sure how much real through put this would achieve if PfSense were loaded and running.
Any suggested builds ?
