@_Shorty - we're getting off topic but there are things like - http://www.quietpc.com/asus-strix-gtx950-dc2oc-2gd5
Wouldn't fit in my mini itx streacom FC8. but I have one like that (but a 750) in my desktop and it works a treat - fan only ever noticeably comes on if I am gaming (rare!).
But if Intel soon have an HEVC 10 bit solution in a NUC form factor I am sold for my lounge room really - lately all that fritsch/fernetmenta work seems very pro intel and solid . There's even passive cooling options for those, but in my new lounge I am further from the player so very much doubt I'd even hear the normal NUC fan. The NUCs are super reliable with remotes and on/off etc as well (I have two 2820s for spare room/travel scenarios - they're great!)....so all in all, I think those are looking positive. Would ideally persist with this AMD box until then, though, and ideally with Jarvis and correct levels on it.
