The second is the I-864, which is used for K1 visa, but then aos to I864!?
I have been worrying and stressing about various aspects of the k1 visa process, however I am now worried about something I have niot looked into detail.
Its the I-864, which i understand is for the AOS once I am there, my fiancee will be a student at university and is likely to just have a bar job, she will have savings/assets of around $60k, she also have family memebers that have significant finances. I am also likely to be going with at least $20k. Now am I likely to have a problem with the I864???

If her income won't be enough to qualify her on income alone, then depending on how much she earns, she can make up the difference in assets, if she has enough (such as savings). Assets must equal 3x the amount she would have needed in income. Your cash can be deposited into her account and used along with her assets for one total.
A joint sponsor must earn the right amount of income for their household size plus you. Or, the sponsor must have assets equal to 5x the amount they would have needed in income.
Best Wishes,

where can i see the specific fiancial figures i.e the qualifying fiancial figure?
As long as she will have a joint sponsor who qualifies, there should be no problem. If you've got several family and/or friends to choose from, shouldn't be a problem finding someone who qualifies.

Rene,
It's not necessary for the alien spouse's assets to be turned over to the US sponsor spouse. He can keep his cash in his own account and she can still use it for her I-864.
Putting his (and her) money into a joint account might be useful for a showing of co-mingled finances, adding credibility to the bona fides of the marriage.
