In this old supermicro 1u case is my pfsense router, the main router used in my house. It hosts a wireguard server, amongst other things. It is powered with an AMD A4-5000, a nice low powered CPU with AES hardware acceleration (unlike intel processors of the same era). It is powered off a PicoPSU, which saves ~5w. It uses a dedicated intel i350 NIC, which is very nice.
