Thansk for the advice mate, those PSU's are excellent value for the price, and the 2x 12V lines are actually only one 12v line delivering 34A overall, which is amazing for such a decent price.
We'll be going with the 500W version i think, for future upgrade of graphics etc. (No SLI or CrossFire here, even though we could).
Were you aware that seasonic actually manufacture them? Here's a decent review of it:
