Hi,

Processor:
So it looks like I go for a intel i3 processor, with integrated gpu.

Anyway, I'm a fan of Asus MBs, either Intel or AMD processors. I used

MB:
Does it make sense to go for an Intel motherboard when I have also a Intel
processor? Then it should fit right ;) Like the Intel Desktop Board DH55HC
for example?
Asus is also mentioned pretty often indeed, MSI too. Which is the best,
that's all I have to know ;)

Power:
When it comes to a power supply I was thinking about Enermax PRO82+ 385W. I
heard that brand is good...

Cases:
There are pretty some option these days. Towers, mini-itx, htpc. I like the
style of the Antec ones ( antec Solo-EU Quiet Mini Tower Case, NoPSU, for
example).
Smaller is more mobile and looks nicer, but what is better and more silent?

Memory:
Any recommended brands, type and speed?

Regards,

\r
