Hi,
I would like to know which CPU would be the best for a file server, I was hoping for one under 100$ that doesn't waste too many transistors on the iGPU (since I won't even plus a monitor in).
I mostly do file transfers over SMB and also RC4 encrypted... I actually have a Atom N270 and since I started using encryption the bandwidth has dropped 1/2. Of course any CPU would be better than a N270, but an energy efficient one would be nice. I was also thinking ahead about maybe using the AES instruction for efficient encryption...
Basically, I want to have a better network transfer speed (compared to my 30MB/sec)
Thank you for your answers!
By the way, I found an add with a i5-2320 for 110$, tell me if this would be better then a new cheap CPU!
