thanks for the replies.

The LC17 is big enough to allow for standard atx, so theres no need to go micro-atx.

I was thinking of going the 3800+ route and using the extra cash to get 2 spinpoint hdds for possible dvd storage.

AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core 3800+ (Socket 939) - OEM (CP-152-AM)
£191.47
Asus A8N-E nForce4 Ultra (Socket 939) PCI-Express Motherboard (MB-088-AS)
£70.44
GeIL 2GB (2x1GB) PC3200 Value Dual Channel Kit CAS3 (GE2GB3200BDC) (MY-046-GL)
£105.69
Arctic Cooling Freezer 64 Pro CPU Cooler (Socket 754/939/940) (FG-000-AR)
£15.22
Seasonic S12 500W Silent ATX2.0 Power Supply (CA-001-SS)
£84.54
Samsung SpinPoint P SP2514N 250GB ATA-133 8MB Cache - OEM (HD-020-SA)
£62.22 x2 = £124.44

Total = £591.80


Going for Seasonic psu as i'm striving for a quiet as possible htpc.
