Netflow Nfsen Server Hardware

We are looking to purchase a new server for Netflow exports. This will mainly be used to evaluate our transit bandwidth for potential peering opportunities. A long data retention is not a high priority.
Our combined transit bandwidth is around 6 Gbps and increasing all the time.
Looking to get a sanity check on the server hardware required. We will be using Nfsen as the collector.
Would one of the below configurations be okay to handle such as task? If not, does anyone have any other recommendations.
Thanks in advance.
