CPU for pfsense router?

[FlyingHawk08]

Trying to pick a CPU for the pfsense router and please give suggestions for which one?
The services i'll be running are Router, NAT, Snort, Captive Portal and OpenVPN (or IPSec with l2tp) and the internet connection is a 24/1 ADSL link (actual speed 2.3MB/s down and 115KB/s up) (future upgrade to gigabit fibre when installed in my area by who knows when)

1. Intel Celeron G1610
* Low Power
* Generally Faster

2. AMD A4-5300
* High AES Encryption throughput (1.5GB/s compared to 250MB/s)
* Faster Graphics (console based so not sure if this applies)

I would go with the Celeron. as a router with VPN will need a very fast processor, and as its linux, a strong graphics card isn't required.
