I'm thinking of setting up a file server that just functions as a file server and has three NICs:

- 10GbE NIC

- 40GbE NIC

- 1GbE NIC

If I am going to max out these connections simultaneously how low can I go in terms of CPU power?

Can I do this with a dual core Pentium? What about a i3-4350?

First at all you need to look at L3 cache speed of your CPU.

Second on memory bandwich.
