      I have parts to build a router, I'd like to build a wireless AC one if possible.

      I currently have:

      ASUS AM1M-A
      Sempron 3850
      2x Intel 1000 pcie nics
      Sentey Half Height case
      60W pico psu

      I have a free 4x pcie slot

      Unsure how much memory to get (Board can use unbuffered ECC)

      This is my first build so I a complete novice, so advice is appreciated.

        Hardware should be fine.
        4GB RAM is enough for most uses.

        No wireless AC cards are supported.  Get an external AP, you'll be much happier.
