i only need motherboard , cpu and videocard bluj ray drive i have coverd and hard drive as well and memory as well i have coverd i just need help with those three
 
I just built a HTPC (installing updates as we speak) using a ASROCK 1150 socket motherboard .... It's their H97 Anniversary one + 3220 CPU and NO GPU.... But with a budget of 500 the sky's the limit for you my man....

I'm in Brownsburg IN myself. Id hit up Frys. I was in there myself today and looks like they are redoing their stuff so they will have some deals on display units or stock they are phasing out....
 
For HDMI 2.0 with a discrete card you will need a GTX 950, 960 or 980Ti. I believe those are the only options at the moment.

I believe some skylake boards do support HDMI 2.0, but a good portion of them are still only 1.4.
 
Are you sure you want wireless? In some people's houses WiFi reception is not good. And you'll be using UHD video files over it probably.
