Use the AMD64 for something else (database, mailscanning, high-end webserver, ...) and use whatever you have from old hardware. The main issue is memory: it is might be possible in 128MB ram, it should be possible in 256MB ram and if you have 512MB ram, you have more than enough. If course, this also depends on what amount of traffic you expect: aside from the memory, an old box with bad NICs will have a hard time pushing 10Mbps, while a new box with good NICs and a decent OS will forward about anything you throw at it.
