RE: Intel NUC - HTPC (Haswell Late 2013 edition) - ikecomp - 2014-02-05 (2014-02-04, 23:17)Selene Wrote: Which CPU Core is over 25% only 1? I'm just using the task manager in windows 8.1 and I think by default it shows the total CPU usage (both cores). When I get home I can check resource monitor to get a more accurate picture how taxed each core is. However, 25% of both cores isn't very high. Intel NUC - HTPC (Haswell Late 2013 edition) - BLKMGK - 2014-02-05 Are you using hardware decoding or software? No experience with Windows on this box but I'd try switching that setting and testing again in XBMC.

No experience with Windows on this box but I'd try switching that setting and testing again in XBMC. I tried toggling acceleration on and off but saw the same results in Youtube. However I found something interesting. When I use any of the decent metro youtube apps the stutter is pretty much gone. This is leading me to a potential issue with the browser. I'll keep digging but I welcome any more suggestions.

Same thing for me on windows 8.1 with nightlies gotham ? Is it a known bug ? Screensaver issue ? RE: Intel NUC - HTPC (Haswell Late 2013 edition) - fritsch - 2014-02-05 Two possibilities: a) Send your complete nuc including your NAS, your network router, everything to us - so we can reproduce b) Put xbmc into debug mode, let it run and post the log when it happens. Intel NUC - HTPC (Haswell Late 2013 edition) - bgdon - 2014-02-05 Which ram/ssd is everyone using for this? Im looking to buy the i3 version to run windows 8.1, xbmc, 3d 1080p and hd sound, ive seen a Kingston 60GB mSATA SSDNow£45 and 4GB 1600MHz DDR3L Non-ECC CL11 SODIMM 1.35V for £35. You guys think this will be ok for what i need? RE: Intel NUC - HTPC (Haswell Late 2013 edition) - Selene - 2014-02-05 should be enough. i run 32 gb and it works fine RE: Intel NUC - HTPC (Haswell Late 2013 edition) - Crssi - 2014-02-05 More than enough... even for Win 8.1 Intel NUC - HTPC (Haswell Late 2013 edition) - bgdon - 2014-02-05 Thanks!

Im looking to buy the i3 version to run windows 8.1, xbmc, 3d 1080p and hd sound, ive seen a Yous should be fine with those specs. One thing I would recommend though is going for the "H" model of the i3 nuc. It's a little more expensive ($10-15) but it's worth it for the flexibility. I threw an old 80 GB 2.5" mechanical drive I had lying around in it and it works great. At some point I will upgrade but it's nice to have the option to use something besides mSata. Plus the H model comes with additional venting for better cooling as well Both models are fine though.

RE: Intel NUC - HTPC (Haswell Late 2013 edition) - Farplaner - 2014-02-06 Since I have played with the i5 haswell NUC for about a month now, I thought I would write about my experience. I have basically copied this post (thanks for the post!) for what I ordered: http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=176718&pid=1569377#pid1569377 I installed Windows 8.1, XBMC stable version, and everything appeared to work great. The reason I installed Windows however, is because I wanted to do some gaming on the NUC. I'm a fighing game fan, and I played most of my games on the Xbox 360. On the NUC I installed Super Street Fighter IV. I had to tune the graphics settings down to low, and set the display setting for the game to 720p, but after that I was able to achieve steady 60fps. I'm actually quite surprised to be able to play the game with no delay, because playing fighting games require very precise timings when inputting a combo. Love the device so far. RE: Intel NUC - HTPC (Haswell Late 2013 edition) - baltik - 2014-02-06 It seems that several people have resolved booting issues, I am still struggling with mine - Every time I shut down via XBMC or remote control the machine boots back up. Is there a setting that I need to tweak? Machine: I3 - D34010WYK BIOS 0023 - latest version, WOL disabled OpenElec - recent nightly build: r17148 |
