I just checked that case is available at amazon.com @ 90$ but with shipping & Duty it's costing a whopping 189$ so importing is not wise I will suggest you CM HAF 902 8.3k

what about GPU and Sound card, and I want small MoBo
The AMD A6 is a APU so no need of additional GPU but Mini ITX motherboard is not easy to find so If you really need a Mini ITX then Go with Intel i3 4130 with Intel HD 4400 7.7k with Gigabyte H97 wifi 11k
For Smooth HD playback it's enough but any encoding or Higher Bit rate bluray disk will a need a GPU then going with Zotac GTX 750 1 gb DDR5 8.9k is a good option .
Sound card Asus xonar DX 5.7k
