What is your budget?

The 45 nm Intel processors are power saving ones.

If your budget is low, i would recommend Intel e5200, the most VFM 45nm processor, costs 3300/-.

About the mobo, I know of some Asus motherboards that have onboard wifi but don't remember which one...will let you know soon...

Why not- Get that atom motherboard, rams and a psu- something like vip 400w silver (fsp foxtron oem which has active pfc)/cm extreme plus 390w (doesnt have active pfc though) and a WD green hard drives? Not sure how much sata ports they have though. Or else cheap a cheap amd board+ amd x2 proccy!! AMD processors is much energy efficient in idle and load as far as seen.
