N5105 or J6412?
-
I've been looking at them but they are all only single channel RAM so may be slower in some circumstances.
Thanks

@daniel_hyde but with the bandwidth of DDR5 would single vs dual channel matter anymore? Especially for a firewall device?
-
It may do as it will affect latency too
IIRC the new chips support up to DDR5 4800 which gets you 38.4GB/s and dual channel DDR4 3200 of the old chips gets you 51.2GB/s.
Having said that the devices I've seen with the new chips were DDR4 not DDR5 so would only have 25.6GB/s.Thanks

@riahc8 just to muddy the waters a bit.
Have you had a look at the new hotness that is the N95 /N100/N305? Most of those same resellers either already are or will be releasing the new chips at roughly the same price.
Dude Ive posted multiple threads about this and now I get a answer.....
I already got a J6413

@riahc8
can't remember seeing your other threads. Do let us know how the J6413 performs for you once you get it set up.@Daniel_Hyde the systems I was looking at are all DDR5, probably from the same ODM. For those of us running single channel ram (I'm currently on a single stick of 8GB DDR4) I doubt it'll make a huge difference.
Will be interesting to see the post about the new chips once they flood the market tho.

They sent a N5105 because they are dumbasses....
Having a issue with their 4G card but thats troubleshooting.
Thank you all for the help
BTW, on a intresting note: I imported my old config from my old virtualized pfSense and the WAN was 10Mbps......Started from stratch the it gives me roughly the same speed as my ISP router so....Very intresting

@riahc8 the N5105 has only slightly lower scores on passmark and geekbench so performance should be roughly the same.
I've never done a move from VM to bare metal but make sure you get the updated Bios for the N5105 since it provides more options for tweaking and solves a few lingering problems with stability.

Asked for BIOS update, they dont have.
Also 32GB vs 16GB...
-
@riahc8 N5105 only supports 16GB officially
Thanks Dan

I know. What do you mean?
-
@riahc8 16GB officially but reports of 32GB running on the N5105 along with info on bios updates can be found here:
I'm still waiting on the 2 port N100 they promised by end of May.
