Well the Powersupplies is not so easy since you have some evenly matched power supplies but toss the 400W out of the comparision. Fortron Source makes exellent power supplies and so does Tagan. I have never purchased a Tagan that was defective or had any problems in the long run. Unfortunately they are not very efficient (the one you posted has a 70% rating). The fortron on the other hand has a 80% rating making it a better option for your power bill. Another option is this

I would also recommend an Antec into the mix but they are pretty hard to come by nowadays in europe. If your not worried about the power bill go with the Tagan. The onlt thing I know about these cases is that the Tsunami has a really flimsy door.

Out of those PSU's, The FSP Bluestorm is the better choice, imo.

The Thermaltake Soprano looks pretty cool and roomy, go for it!
