media center , kodi , watching online movies , full hd , 3d etc
asus comes with i5 but its 4th gen , the nuc is the 5th gen
Celeron will do most of this, less flash based browser videos and frame packed 3D. Even on a Win8 platform.
But for more general use and a bit of CPU breathing room, minimum i3. 5th gen i5 for future proofing maybe - but consider your typical pattern of hardware replacement first. The price bump is significant.
I've been using the DN2820FYKH for about a year (4GB RAM, small SSD), and even running Win8pro it does everything fine. Except the mentioned in-browser flash based players, where it falls a little short of fluid playback. OpenELEC will further ease the OS load.
