I run a sandy bridge HTPC using virtual logix to do gpu switching (works well) and for a front end im using XMBC but i have modified two config files so that xmbc will use VLC to play all video formats (i dont use bluray) but im sure you could also have it play bluray with the player of your choice.
My hardware: ASUS motherboard with lucid logix gpu switching (games run on 9800GTX, media runs on integrated), 4GB ram, Silverstone GD06, the rest well is irrelevant.
