Actually that's not a bad idea arjun I was thinking of getting an HDMI LED tv in the next month or so... I have ati 4530 with hdmi port lying around so might as well use it to create a combo download plus htpc together
 
^ I got, AMD Phenom II X2 550BE for my Gigabyte GA-MA-785GM + i already had 2GB DDR2 RAM.

I am going for CoolerMaster Elite 100.

But i am slightly worried about the Power Supply.

I am not sure if it will be able power the motherboard + CPU + Ram + 2tb HDD + XFX ATI 4350 1GB

I am going for HTPC + Download Rig Combo.
 
^ Actually I don't understand what the concern of you people are, they want something fanless, or like in other post that HDD makes noise.

A noise that you hear only when you put your ear near it, i not actually any noise, if you listen carefully you A/C also makes noise, Can you get a fanless one :)

BTW I Would go for a fanless one because the cabinet will be surrounded by Wood on 5 side with only front pannel facing out. So I would definately go for a PSU with Fan. Probably a Coolermaster 450W or Corasir 450W Also a system & PSU running 24 hours a day would definitely need cooling.
 
^^

I would recommend an FSP SAGA 400W for 2.1k. Its the same one as the Gigabyte superb 460.

it can easily handle that load you specified.

X2 550BE : 95W

mobo: 40~50W

hdd: 30~35W

HD 4350: 35~45W

So in total, its less than 250W.Piece of cake for the SAGA 400. It has 120mm cooling fan and has enough connectors and is 80+ efficient too.
