I am totally lost with the best XBMC solution under £200.
1) I tried a Amlogic s802 (MX3) box under android and found it too laggy and even though I am android fan, I just wanted XBMC.
2) Then I bought a Amlogic s802 (M8) and flashed with an Openelec build for that and found it nice and zippy but no support for Acestream, 4K and the odd freeze.
So. I am left looking at a chromebox or Intel NUC Kit Celeron DN2820FYKH 2.4GHz, the latter of course needing RAM and a SSD,
Since the Chromebox has no infra red for a remote and no storage, maybe the DN2820FYKH is better for me and also allows me to put a 2TB HDD in there for both Openelec and media storage internally
Is the DN2820FYKH celeron processor any good for Kodi (how much RAM too?) and plans to use with 4K in the future. Having said all that nothing support HDMI 2.0!
My heads spinning with the options. Any advice guys?
Thanks
