Lucky fellow. ;)I guess I should not mention that I have 1Gbps up/down via Google fiber for $70.00 US :).

That's Lady, thank you very much :).Lucky fellow. ;)
Still lucky! (512/488 kb/s here)That's Lady, thank you very much :).
I stand corrected. :)That's Lady, thank you very much :).
Dating must really suck for you Arwen. You are constantly asking yourself "he only wants me for my internet connection".

That's an experience I know well, though only at ~100Mb/s bandwidths.<humor>How dare you assume he'd only want me for my Internet connection! It's obviously also for the beer
in the fridge, and ice cream in the freezer.</humor>
But back to reality, 1Gbps down/up is only as good as your ISP's POP, (Point Of Presence on the Internet). I
have had many times slow connection for trivial things, like a single HD video from Netflix, Vudu or Amazon
re-buffering. Or browsing common pages taking >30 seconds. All of this is wired in the house, (not WiFi), and
then fiber outside.
My new ISP's real fiber is an awesome last mile solution, but their routing is not quite as good, sometimes causing 50-100ms fluctuations in pings
so you can go for the C2758 @DataKeeper is using (~ €400) or the C2558 (~ €300)...Thanks for these sources. I still don't get why so many pfsense builds use CPUs without AES.
Thats a big price difference. You do get twice the amount of cores and cache for on third more of the price... But if i were building on a budget i'd go for the latter one.so you can go for the C2758 @DataKeeper is using (~ €400) or the C2558 (~ €300)...
There's no pricing pressure, so Intel charges more or less whatever they want, then Supermicro, as the only manufacturer selling C2x58 boards, gets to add their own comfortable margin.Thats a big price difference.

I DO plan to use VPN and I'd be the only user. I didn't see AES on that board, what's the hot hardware these days for VPN?If you have no plans to run a VPN then there really isn't much of a need for it.

I've been following it off and on. I have it as one of my subscribed threads that I've been very interested in. Sorry about that.If you're not willing to read the whole thread, then at least take a look 6 messages up, where this part of the conversation started...
