I am planning to buy a new pc case, cpu, motherboard and power supply. I may have to choose between these two sets, and i need to know your opinion.

I am planning to go later on SLI, if you need to know. Oh and the hard drive is just because i want some extra memory...
First :

Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 3.0GHz, 1333FSB (Dual Core) 6000K
Intel CPU Fans : Cooler Master HyperTX Intel EXTRA QUIET Vertical HeatPipe Copper fan
Intel Motherboards : MSI P7N Platinum SLI nForce 750i, 1333FSB, SLI PCI Ex, Sound,1GB LAN, iEEE
Hard Drives : 250.0GB Maxtor/ Seagate 7200rpm SATA2 UDMA 300 16m Cache
Cases : Thermaltake Soprano Black, front USB
Power Supply : Antec EarthWatts 500w Extra Quiet ATX Power Supply SLI Ready

Second choice :

Motherboard: ASUS P5N-D SLI (45nm CPU / 750i / 4 RAM / 2x SLI / SND / LAN / FireW)
CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 LGA775 Dual-Core (45nm / 3.0GHz / 6MB / 1333FSB)
CPU Fan: Thermaltake TR2 M21 RX A4021 LGA775 Copper Base CPU Fan
Hard Drive: 250GB 7200RPM SATA2 Hard Disk Drive
PC Tower Case: Thermaltake WingRS VG1000BNS Black Mid Tower Case
Power Supply: COOLER MASTER 500W PCAR HEAVY LOAD Power Supply
Case Fan: Ball Bearing ATX System Cooling CASE FAN

Actually its pretty much the same, the biggest difference is the Case and the Motherboard. Still, can you tell me what you guys think between these two sets?
