Hi!
So far i have used OpenBSD either on older servers or on ordinary older
PC's for packet filtering etc. Now i would like to give it a try and use
more-or-less contemporary so to say SoC form-factor board (i think this
is what i need because among other things i need to have clamav and it
better has 2 G ram). For me it is easier to choose from what local it
shop has (actually they put such computer together on demand) and as i
understand broadly speaking i have those choices
1. mini-itx or micro-atx, i would prefer micro-atx because it has more
PCIe slots in case i need for example extra NIC ports (although mini-itx
also has at least one pci or pcie)
2. j1800 and j1900 processors which are in itselt more of a desktop
stuff and older; or n3050 which are mobile and newer, i would prefer
which one works better with OpenBSD
I would be thankful if you could comment on running OpenBSD on these
three processors based for example on these specific boards (or suggest
something else which is known to work)
1. asrock q1900m - http://www.asrock.com/mb/Intel/Q1900M/
2. gigabyte ga-n3050N-d3h -

3. asus j1800i-A - https://www.asus.com/Motherboards/J1800IA/
I looked over misc achive also and i saw people having more or less
success running openbsd on all of them. And if it wasnt already asked
enough, please comment if for example there is respectable indication
online somewhere that says OpenBSD runs on j1800-IC is it then most
probable that it runs also on j1800-IA (diagonally looking i see some
more io ports on j1800-ic model).
Best regards,
Imre
