OK, I've sold bits on the MM and have some spare cash to spend on upgrading my htpc (see sig for details)

I am looking for suggestions for what to spend it on but at the moment I think that the only two things I could do with are:-

1) a decent case, preferably silver and have VFD (I currently have some sort of balck Coolermaster case though I have no idea on it model number)

2) a BR-RW drive

Lets say total to spend in ~£230

Also, after these upgrades my HTPC will make my Digi-PVR, DVD player and CD player redundant under my tv leaving only the htpc and my 5.1 amp. Is there any way of connecting speakers directly to the pc (via a card?) or is it still best to run 5.1 through the amp (Sony)

TIA
