Is there a cheap and easy way to get spdif from this one? I have seen hdmi to spdif converters or USB to spdif but not sure what works with openelec

But why use i386 in the first place on the NUC DN2820?

Check the intel for website for guidance: http://www.intel.com/support/motherboard...034588.htm
The full speed of that memory will not be used by the 2820 as it'll only run up to 1066 Mhz.
I think I remember reading somewhere that double sided ram had issues with getting too hot or causing too much heat when placed next to another component in the box. It was a while ago so maybe it was an isolated incident but input from others would help clarify who use double sided ram.
Finally 8GB seems alot, if you're just running XBMC I'd have thought 4GB would be more than enough?

For OE even 2GB is enough.
I have 4GB and never seen the NUC use more than a 1GB of RAM including the 512MB for GPU.

Only "low memory warning" I ever got was a "false positive", a confirmed Windows bug.Interested in this statement. I have now a couple of times had windows 8.1 on my 2820 NUC displaying a "low memory" warning that takes focus away from XBMC, but task manager shows only 1GB of 4GB in use. Interesting you mentioned it's a confirmed bug, is there any resolution or more info you have seen?

Since I have changed nothing in the last year except I am up-to-date on XBMC nightlies, I would suspect that this is XBMC problem rather than Win 81, but this is only a speculation.
Does anyone knows more about this problem?

Controller is C-Media CM106 - might be a proper google would help you sort that out.
