I recently bought the below listed items to follow JDM’s Mini-ITX pfSense build guide, but it ended up being a little overkill for my use case, so I got one of the T-Mobile/Asus RT-AC68Us during a recent eBay sale instead which is working just fine for me. Ideally trying to sell the mobo, the CPU, and the CPU cooler for what I paid for them, but I am willing to negotiate on the AP.
Open to local pickup, or buyer pays shipping in the Continental US.
Intel DQ77KB Thin Mini-ITX LGA1155 motherboard ($60) [SOLD]

- 2 core/4 threads at 2.90 GHz clock speed
ARCTIC Alpine 12 LP CPU cooler ($12) [SOLD]
