[sanity]

I've spent some time reading through this post.

I'm on the fence about purchasing an Intel Nuc NUC7I5BNH matched with 32GB RAM and 120GB M2 SATA SSD for media consumption and light gaming and emulation.

I just want to confirm if my setup would be sufficient for the following:

- 4K MKV Playback YES No HDR
- DTS:X and DOLBY ATMOS passthrough YES tested on Windows
- Light Gaming Not tested
- Windows 10 Yes
- Amazon & Netflix 4K Streaming Not Tested

Ideally - I need this with a single HDMI 2.0 cable and no really other fancy jazz. HDMI in and HDMI out supporting all this kind of stuff to a beautiful 4K TV playing all my content without any issue.

Thoughts?!

Hope that helps

HDR works fine with Kaby lake nuc. You'll have to use Powerdvd as it wont work in Kodi.
Netflix 4K works fine, I dont have amazon but im sure it works.
There is no such thing as HDMI 2.0 cables. There are regular HDMI and High Speed Hdmi cable and you'll need the High Speed one for 4K.

It may be a bit confusing with all versions of HDMI cables, so I'll try to make it a little easier to understand. A certified HDMI cable should now have one of these labels:

Standard HDMI Cable (Supports Resolution 1080i and 720p)
Standard HDMI Cable with Ethernet (supports resolution to 1080i and 720p and has network)
High Speed ​​HDMI Cable (Supports 1080p, 4K, 3D and Deep Color)
High Speed ​​HDMI Cable with Ethernet (Supports 1080p, 4K, 3D and Deep Color and has Network)

But all versions of HDMI cables then?
The HDMI version (HDMI 1.0, 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, etc.) only denotes the features and resolutions supported by the devices you are pairing, not the cable itself. In other words, if you have a new Blu-ray player that supports 3D (HDMI Version 1.4), your TV must also support 3D (HDMI Version 1.4). Then you will use a high speed HDMI cable. However, there are still many who are stubborn by calling the cables for version numbers to show that they support those features.
