As others have stated - without knowing what you *really* do with it
recommendations are hard, and should be taken with a pinch of salt.

The system in my sig is great as an always on SBS, and just draws
20-something watts... but I also have a higher powered system to do
real work. 

There are now excellent Intel lga1155 boards that have both a lot of
umph, aggressive power management features, and fit into a miniITX
board that is whisper quiet. For a silent system you ahve to do some
research before you buy the components, though - I recommend
silentpcreview.com.
