I noticed Monsters Inc file you played said "DTS" was that DTS-HD? If not, have you tried DTS-HD passthrough on XBMC in Win8.1?
Sadly I think I waited a tad too long to jump on board. Most of the places that had it for $130-$140 are now sold out. Provantage still had it in stock but wants to charge $20 for ground shipping, and Amazon is backordered 1 month

Wow that's extremely cheap. The cheapest you can find it for over here is $170, without shipping - which is also cheap for a PC over here.

Still no DTS-HD in Win 8.1, it's currently unsupported in the drivers it would seem. Any DTS-HD or MA causes the vid to playback around 1-2FPS...

Only because I've never seen a system running Openelec, would the performance in the video be almost similar on the same hardware but with Openelec instead on win8?

Yes. Openelec always has better load times, since the os is only 100Mb, vs ~9GB for windows 8.

Damn they charge sales tax in like 25 states, including mine.

On Mint it was a bit laggy in modes with big preview pictures, so I didn't do a video of that. Maybe it was caching something. But the default skin works perfectly.

Thank you man.
This is allmost everything I need... the only showstopper I see now is just DTS-HD passtrough... but I believe that this will be sorted out soon.
Uh... can you comment also on a fan noise using Aeon Nox?
Is it loud?
When does it "kick-in"?
Do you have something to compare with?
On i5 haswell, the only time it does, is when updating library (and it does not bother me)... otherwise it is very rearely.
And when it does, it is still 3 times lower than my XtreamerPro.

And what about hd audio passthrough in openelec? Does it work?

There is an article on phoronix about the state of linux on the BayTrail NUC:

so its still slower than a celeron 1007u, any reason to take this over an asus vivopc vm40b?
RE: Intel NUC - HTPC (Bay Trail/Silvermont 2013Q4 edition) - embrion - 2014-02-13
NUC is smaller and has build in IR so you can wake if from power off and no ugly dongles ruining the whole minimalistic look. I cannot see anything more.

The NUC's price is exactly 1/3.
Well, it's not exactly true, if you add a 4GB of RAM, and a 500GB HDD, and Windows 8, but I couldn't find the ASUS bare. So if you want to use OpenELEC or a Linux distro, and don't want a HDD, but an SSD, then it's not the right choice.
The speed difference is not that much, the 1007 uses a faster RAM.
