Well, if it gotta be good for tv add a tv tuner card, and maybe a leap motion for the kinect features : P

Also i think it should include a SSD for faster startups to make it feel more tv like

Stuff I have I like: Moto G - Superlux HD681 Evo - Monoprice 9927

90% of what I say is sarcasm.

For the Cpu you can go with the Fx 6300/6350 or the fx 8320, that way you will be able to save money for a better motherboard like the Gigabyte 990 FXA UD3 or the Asrock 990fx extreme 3.

Also i don't think you will be able to overclock much with the aftermarket cooler you chose, at least go with the cooler master Hyper 212

I7 4770K - @4.5Ghz  |  Be quiet Dark Rock Pro 3  | Asus Maximus VII Ranger Z97  | Kingston Genesis 8GB | Be quiet Power Zone 750w   | Sapphire R9 Fury X |  Sandisk SSD 120Go + WD Green 1TB 7200 rpm | Nzxt Phantom 410
