Hi guys.
Its time for a new router.
I've been running my current pfsense setup in a virtual invironment together with lab/storage vms and it's now time to ugprade and i thought i would run pfsense standalone, not in a virtual environment.
The pfsense setup is pretty basic with 2 openvpn servers, dns server etc.
I've been looking at intels atom options for this
E300-9A-4C | Mini 1U | SuperServers | Products | Super Micro Computer, Inc.
Will the 4core version be enough even if i decide in the future to upgrade with a 10gbaset card or should i go for the 8core version?
Or should i go for amds epic? E301-9D-8CN4 | Embedded | A+ Servers | Products | Super Micro Computer, Inc.
Or does intel/amd have anything new in the works that i should wait for?
I would like you guys opinion on this!
