I replaced a fairly high end, but couple year old, HTPC with the previous generation NVIDIA Shield about a year ago. It works amazingly well with everything I throw at it, including 4K decoding that my HTPC stumbled with. When people (in the many home theater and audio groups that I am a member of) talk about robust, performance based systems for "doing it all," the Shield is at the top of most lists.
