NUC purchase, last few questions

[killerk]

Hi

I have pretty much decided to go with a i5 NUC for my new media pc and have a few (probably silly) questions.

Has anyone tried using the i5 HD5000 for playing 4K video, not an issue just now but would be good in future?


Are there any other drawbacks worth noting?

Just a note that Broadwell based NUC with HD6000 and HDMI 1.4a should be out in a month or so.
They will be more expensive, of course, but just worth noting.
I am personally waiting for that, mostly for much more power efficien CPU and slightly faster GPU and m2 SSD.

worth waiting for (any idea what the new i5 NUC motherboards will cost). Otherwise if they come cheap the existing NUC will do 4K @ 24FPS via displayport
