Help me decide between some PSUs and MOBOs.

It's for my AMD64 4000+, 2x 6800U PC. Thanks in advance.

Mobos:

AMD64 S939 DFI LANPARTY UT NF4 SLI-D PCIE
AMD64 S939 MSI K8N NEO4 PLATINUM NF4 SLI PCIE
AMD64 S939 ASUS A8N-SLIDELUXE 4D5P2X SLI

The staff employee claimed that DFI is a very good board. He initially put the ASUS one, but I came back the next day and told him that you guys recommended the DFI and NEO4 mobos.

PSUs:

600W POWER ATX OCZ POWERSTREAM
680W POWER ATX P4 THERMALTAKE W0049

The staff told me that both are very good in terms of reliability and stability, but that I should go with the Thermaltake because it's better if I ever want to upgrade.

Thanks guy, when I've picked these, my final PC build will be ready and I'll go give them the green light to assemble it in about 2 hours.
 
What makes it better than the other one?

If you guys tell me one is better than the other, I'll believe it because you all are more knowledgeable than I am. But I'd still like to know for my own knowledge. 🙂
 
if over clocking then the dfi. if not i like the msi. and last i like the asus. the msi has nice onboard sound. but need -5 vold rail i believe. and i would get the ocz 600watt also.
 
Thanks very much guys.

Going for the DFI mobo and the OCZ PSU. Just came back from ordering it. Unfortunately, they said that they have to order the mobo from the states (I'm in Canada 🙂 ) and customs tends to delay it a week or two... which kinda sucks very much... otherwise I'd have the PC in under two weeks... 🙁

No, they aren't. I bet you havn't even used one. Especially when I can get a nice 420W PSU with very nice rails for 30 bucks on newegg. I'd take an Antec if it were free, but Antecs are like 3 times more for the same thing.
