Hey, im a pretty experienced system builder and know my stuff but i really want to ask everyone on tom's to get the last opinions on my build and if someone can offer an equally good intel based build, that would be much appreciated as im more of an AMD system builder.
This system is going to be used for audio codecs, bluray playback, maybe a bit of gaming (unlikely but needs a discrete graphics solution for bluray) and need it to be microATX
I'm tryin to keep the price not much higher than $700 and with shipping(holy sh**) its more around $750.
It also needs to have EVERYTHING accept OS (mouse, keyboard, screen) and a very good quality sound card
here are all my current shopping items:

hey, thanks for the reply!

great suggestions, i like the xonar alot with its HDMI interface but its a bit pricey.. might have to think about that one. but the 4650 you suggested is one i will probably go with, if not then the 4670.
