There is a way to make pfSense run on any kind of new hardware and not have
to worry about problems with new technologies, while also making it somewhat
portable: run pfSense in a virtual machine that runs on the new hardware. 

 

(Portable in the sense that you can move it from one host to another, no
matter what cpu and chipset runs underneath)
