Note that Intel NICs are not available on the PC Engines board, so it's not the 
"same board", though a few suppliers build boards with the same 
SOC and Intel NICs. 

With a dual core Rangeley or Avoton 900Mbps between two ports is an everyday 
thing.

Those are miniPCIe slots, not PCIe. 

Rangeley / Avoton are 6-20W TDP, depending on the number of cores.
