Or if you set a custom fan speed in the BIOS and save and reboot, that the fan speed and temps are no longer reported in BIOS and the fan spins louder and faster than it should?

I have had this issue on 2 of these. The first one Intel Support suggested I downgrade BIOS from 0025 to see what happens, with no improvement. I updated to 0025 again and it died altogether.

The replacement does the exact same thing. its still on BIOS 0015, I'm a bit scared to up date it lol.

I downloaded the two 1080p files among the test files you referred to - for both the playback is not very smooth and many frames are dropped at the beginning when there is a lot of camera movement displayed (press o to check that out during playback). The rest of the file is fine as it's a more steady picture.

I didn't try the 720p files.

I'm running Openelec Beta1, what are you running?

I have to concentrate really hard in a quiet room, to have a chance of hearing the nuc - and while there is a slight up-pitch while "resuming", it only seem to last for 2-3 seconds.

I have no real idea about US or Canadian situation, but these have pretty much been is Europe-wide shortage since release. I linked to a white paper by Intel previously here, clearly portraying that the DN2820FYKH will be discontinued veeery soon. Most things point towards a very similar, 2830 based unit taking its place - along with a few upgrades (Beefing up power output over USB 3.0 etc). Timeline for that would just be blind guessing, afaik.

i've found this discussion on the Intel forum : https://communities.intel.com/thread/49440. It's seems that they will get new units only at the end of april.They are also talking about the dn2830. From an Intel guy:

Let me assure you that the DN2820FYKH has NOT been discontinued. It has just been jumping off the shelves faster than we can keep up.

In regards to the processor change - yes - there is going to be an update to this NUC for that. This actually is a stepping change to the N2820 processor, and it is getting a new name. We will be updating the NUC's technical product specification soon.

Regards,
Lois

Thanks for commenting on your NUCs Resume from sleep, a little piece of me died inside because that is not what mine does...

Is someone able to do the following for me, its really straight forward to test for one of my issues:
Enter BIOS
Goto cooling, choose custom upper/lower limit, save and exit. The NUC will reboot
Enter BIOS - is the fan speed and temps reported? On mine they aren't And the fan goes almost full speed.
This will persist between cold boots, reboots and the only way to rectify is load bios defaults.

In my loungeroom this wouldn't be a problem, but in my bedroom it is driving me nuts.

All I plan to do is youtube at 720 maybe check a few websites, and watch basic mkv/mp4/avi videos most at 720 some at 1080, I just want to make sure this little beast can do that, I plan to run xbmcbuntu. Also I do buy my movies and seasons and have a beast of a computer for ripping and gaming but due to where i live I have to get my shows by other means : ( if i want to keep up and not wait for a season to come out on dvd, can this handle downloading and watching at the same time you think?

thanks for any help.
