Any suggestions around Processor + Motherboard combination and Graphics card for a HTPC?

Also for the case -- any other Cooler Master / Antec / others?

Go for
AMD athlon II 630 X4 @ 5.2k
PowerColour HD5770 1GB GDDR5 V2 @ 9.9k
Gigabyte GA-MA785GMT-UD2H @ 5.5k
Corsair 4GB DDR3 1600MHz C9 Titanium @ 5.8k

BenQ 24" G2420 FULL HD LCD Monitor @ 11.3k
Seagate Barracuda 7200.12 1TB @ 4k
Tagan Stone Rock TG600-U37 600W @ 4.4k

Cooler Master Elite 334 Cabby @ 2.2k or Zebronics Antibiotic @ 2.5k

Other config as you like. This is going to be complete balanced PC between an HT PC and Gaming PC. It will be very good for HTPC (no need to mention) and a very good gaming PC.
I suggested a little lower end Processor/Mobo combo because for an HTPC Core i5 is little overkill. For that you need good monitor, lot of staorage, and good PSU.
