Why need AVR? Well, not going to use AVR

Uhmm... because serious HTPC buffs has one?

If you do not plan to use one (meaning, direct connect to TV and using analog outputs to connect to your home stereo system), then any will do.

me also interested to know.. do we have a DVB-T channel..

@mghong.
cube case also looks nice with the living room. any good recommendation of non ganas casing, i mean suited with my living room. not the death skull case for gamer. nod.gif
thermaltake DH101 looks very nice just dont have any expansion slot for internal card reader. and this casing i think cos more than 1k already.
