Seasonic S12 500W vs. Fortron AX500

So... which one do I get? There's good reviews for both. I like that the Forton has sleaved cables and has a longer 12v ATX cable (so I don't have to deal with extension kits), which will be quite handy in the Antec P180 case.. and it's a good $20 cheaper. The main thing that Seasonic has going for it is slightly better specs and a better reputation, I guess?

Eventually it should be able to handle an Athlon FX, SLIed GTXs, a Raptor drive and another SATAII hard drie.. any thoughts?
 
did the fortron fail in toms hardware stress test? anyone? seasonic seems like the better choice since i know they passed with flying colors.
