new UTM box

So, my seven year old astaro box is ready for replacement. As the last time I'm putting together the hardware my self. I probably just upgrade the memory, motherboard and the CPU. All other parts are still OK and functioning.
But how powerful CPU should I go for?
Would an entry level CPU such as an Intel I3-4150 be sufficient, or should I go for something more powerful such as the I5?

Another alternative would to go for something like the Gigabyte GA-C1037UN-EU with integrated Intel Celeron CPU (Dual-core Celeron

1037U processor (1.8 GHz) her)
COuld that be an option?

Andy, my take is that the minimum would be one of the new 4th generation i3's with AES-NI, like the 4150. That should allow you to get great speeds with IPv6 with a fast Internet connection when the time arrives. If William were here, he would say to buy the fastest one available, and it looks like the 4370 is available now.

I agree with Drew, but you probably can save cash now by getting 4GB today and replacing it with 8GB in two+ years. Plus, you get the fun of buying more stuff and playing with the hardware again. [;)]
