I plan to build a cheap low power pc. My intentions for the pc is to have it on all the time and basicly have it downloading things around the clock and also having it so I can remotly access my music from work. Here is the setup i'm debating on, what do you think?

I'm trying to keep power consumption down to a minimum. Any thoughts, comments or suggestion would be great.
