I don't think a B75 mobo is required , sata 6gbps,usb 3.0, these are not required. I guess an H61 mobo and CM Elite 311 cabinet is ok here.

man i would have suggested an A10-5800k APU but those A85 mobos sure do cost a lot.
i guess a-raam put in a gpu just in case you suddenly decided " man i'm bored!! i wanna game a bit!!".

But the A10-5800k + good mobo is a very sensible choice.

I have a separate rig for gaming bro :p , just wanted a decent config that would last long. PC will be strictly used for net surfing & movie watching.

Then get the Pentium G530 + Intel H61 chipset based motherboard based combination. Currently G530 is available around 2.4K and you will get a H61 based motherboard around 3K.

G530 is celeron.though it is good in my opinion if you can get a pentium G620/630 for 3000 it is still a better option.
