Small System for Sophos Home UTM

buzurk
Hi

I want to build a device to handle my network at home. I like the features the home UTM has to offer and will have most of them turned on, learning and playing around, so i want the compute power to handle my connection with these on

Requirements - 
Small (ITX style PC, rack mountable or can mount on shelf in a rack)
Runs cool
Low power usage, aiming for about 30w maxish
Can handle a 100mb/s down / 40mbs up internet connection
Low cost to build


What i have so far
the installer burnt to a CD
an external usb cd drive
a dual port intel gigabit nic low profile


What i need
Case / PSU
CPU
RAM
Motherboard

What options have i got

    Yes, that setup should be enough!
    But that processor its not a low power, similar to that one and low power should be the core i3 2100T, and you said you want a low cost build I'm not sure if those components are low cost!!!
