Will.come back and edit into this and wipe out the other post..
Got mine all set, more then happy with it..
Not a purist as such and so can't get into sound and what it will or will not do.. but as a little rig that sits under the tv and does its magic I am more then happy..
They are still as rare as hen's teeth, seems Asrock wants to push the NICs.. but reviewers are still getting test units to play with.

I got mine with the wifi/Bluetooth from newegg US and getting it shipped to Aus..
Will grab some details out of the other thread and throw them here for reference.. as noted, this will not be the cheapest HTPC build out there as I plan to run a VM on it for HTML5 course building..so it will sit on my network as a work horse and media box..
Build: $Aus
Asrock mini (couldn't wait and have over paid due to transhipment costs)
Land in $Aus $220
i5 6400 $300
16g ram DDR4-2133 $132
eBay discount -$80 so total $362
[Zalman] CNPS80F Ultra Quiet CPU Cooler for Intel LGA 1155. $35
Edits: canned the fan..it's not the right one..it's running at RPM25-2600 and I can't adjust it..tried the internal fan controls and the usual fan control program..but it doesn't want to play nice so gone back to stock Intel that came with CPU.. it's running at around 1100 and you can hardly hear it..plenty of control via the asrock bios so maybe as summer comes on i will take it up a tad..temps are fine how it is..
Gone a bit over board on industrial ssds as been hanging and reading through a few forums and these are a bargain..
SSD PM863 SATA 960GB
Also grabbed one of these..
Intel S3710 Dell R730, R720, R620, R630 Series Enterprise MLC 400GB SSD
It's pushed up the build somewhat but I can always use these SSDs somewhere else if I feel the need..
I know, it's a little over the top for a HTPC but after 6 Android boxs, sticks over time and a atom HTPC that has gone well but time to retire..this will be my best build yet..
