Sophos hardware: Celeron 1037U vs Atom 2550

Hello everyone. I am building a UTM for my home. I am looking at motherboards with 6 NICs (need for my home lab). The selection is limited to Celeron 1037U, Atom 2550 and Atom D525 processors. Please advice which option will yield better performance. IPS and AV will be on, but only for the WAN interface.

Celeron 1037U:
1.8GHz / 2 Cores / 2 Threads / 2MB Cache

Atom 2550:
1.86Ghz / 2 Cores / 4 Threads / 1MB Cache

Comparison chart:
ARK | Compare Intel

Thanks!

William, he's looking at the Avoton Atom not for cost savings, but for 6 onboard NICs.

Barry or William, When Sophos enables Intel QuickAssist Technology into their build, what will it do for me? Will it add speed? IF I was decrypting https, is that were I would see it?

My Atom Rangley has QuickAssist. The Avoton board does not, but the Avoton has Turbo Boost where the Rangley doesn't.
