Intel Skull Canyon (NUC6i7KYK)?

Hello.
Just curious, is there any Skull Canyon user?

I am not but when the Kaby Lake processors come out this is the form factor I am looking for.

I replaced my older PC by this small box and i love it

I've got a Skylake Intel CPU in my latest htpc with HD 530 graphics I think and it just doesn't work. Wouldn't do anything at 23.976hz for ages but the most recent drivers are better. Except they lose all audio after a sleep/resume. <cries/>

I've been running a dedicated GPU since day 1. Maybe things are better with these boxes?

Hello.
Honestly speaking - no audio issues on my side.

There was an update to windows 10 for the audio loss after resume.

There was an update to windows 10 for the audio loss after resume.

When? It was still broken within the last couple of weeks, as it's not long since I last tested.

Do you have latest drivers installed (Version: 15.40.28.4501)?

[donschjr]

I'm sorry that was an update for my video (AMD) which fixed the HDMI audio loss after suspend. I thought it was a windows 10 update.

I know there's no market for it, but I really wish someone would bring out a GPU designed solely for HTPC use - I mean how hard can it be to write simple drivers that just output video and audio correctly at all times (I still blame HDMI and all its bloody DRM), do a bit of deinterlacing, H264 decoding, etc and use bugger all power compared to the beasts people want to install for gaming.
