Low power consumption, low noise and yet powerful HTPC:
1. Case/PSU: SilverStone SG06B (top notch quality with very good PSU and fan in it)
2. APU: AMD Quad-Core A6-3600 or AMD A6-3500 Llano 2.1GHz (2.4GHz Max Turbo) (low power and will playback everything you throw at it)
3. MOBO: ASRock A75M-ITX FM1 (it'll allow you to turn off/on HTPC with IR/MCE remote)
4. Memory: Crucial Ballistix sport 4GB (2 x 2GB) (4GB is the magic number for W7 64-bit)
5. SSD: Patriot Torqx 2 PT232GS25SSDR 2.5" 32GB (enough for W7 64-bit with room to spare)
