Where can I find a few different options as far as some budget friendly equipment to install OPNsense on? It will be used for my house, and there is really only 1 computer, 2 iphones, and 1 roki device running simultaneously.
I am really satisfied with an apu4d4 from PCengines. 300€ retail including VAT. for that you get:
- 64 bit, 4 core AMD, 1-1.4 GHz
- 4 Intel NICs, igb(4)
- serial console
- 120 G Transtec mSATA SSD
- nice case in red, blue or black
- power supply (external "brick")
I can send you the link to the store in Germany I used. Quite pleasant experience. Can also post publicly, of course, but I am unsure about the policy here in this forum.
Kind regards,
Patrick

This is a good starting point: https://opnsense.org/partners/
If you have a 1 Gb/s Internet link, you'd look at a powerful router, especially if you start to play around with IDS/IPS...
That said, I also use a PC Engines board (APU2E4) and I'm quite happy with the performance, and here you can find the list of the official resellers: https://pcengines.ch/order.htm
+ other three hw resellers that I came across while I was searching for my hardware:

- https://www.miniserver.it/
