I'm thinking of setting up a file server that just functions as a file server and has three NICs:

- 10GbE NIC

- 40GbE NIC

- 1GbE NIC

If I am going to max out these connections simultaneously how low can I go in terms of CPU power?

Can I do this with a dual core Pentium? What about a i3-4350?

A dual core will definitely not be enough, alas you need SMB multichannel working on both sides for this to work.
