Hm, why not NUCs? There are NUCs with 8th Generation Intel CPUs:

For example, this one uses i7-8650U Processor:

Based on what I read in all the replies (thank you all!) this should
be more than enough?

I was thinking of not really using a dedicated router, but hopefully
configure NUC's WiFi into an AP. This is all I really need. I just
hope I can configure it as a dual-band AP. I am not yet clear about
that part.
