Yeah, I’ve heard quite a few negative stories about the NUCs.  Intel has been pretty poor at communicating with their userbase around driver updates and issues specifically around the graphics issues that people are having.  Club3D at least communicate and answer questions – hopefully Intel will extend a welcoming hand and get these issues sorted.

My alternative is also to potentially hang on until the 7th Gen NUC comes out – which is supposed to have HDMI 2 natively.  Or I might just get an Alienware Alpha or something similar – which is really annoying since the NUC is supposed to be able to do everything that a decent HTPC should.  Grrr…
