New Home Build

Hi Everyone,

I was looking to build the following for my home installation:-

Shuttle DS81 £179
Crucial CT51264BF160B 4 GB £17
Intel Core i3 4170 £89
Kingston SSDNow 60GB mSATA SSD SATA III £32

total = £317

I was hoping to run IPS, web filtering and Centralised AV etc. Would the above be overkill?

I have Virgin Media cable 150 Down 15 Up. Is it essential to have Intel/Broadcom Nics as the shuttle has dual Realtek adapters?

Thanks for any help

    If you check some posts by William, you will see that the RealTeks are to be avoided.  At 150Mbps, you will want the fastest i3 you can get.

    Cheers - Bob
