I'd go with something around 750 or so... make sure that you have head room. thats all I can say.. also if you want go a place like this. Then give yourself at lease 100 watts head room so if you add more to your system or ocing... IMO

I have just ordered the Thermaltake Toughpower 750W pro (modular), I cant speak for the netherlands but in the UK it's one of the cheapest 750W PSU's out there, and has fantastic reviews everywhere I have looked. I got mine on sale with a further 25% off as I bought an Antec P182 at the same time :)

It looks very nice and indeed it has great reviews.

I like your style. Very nice work on the cables.

10 from me.

BTW, you should send Polaris573 a PM and have him look into that "1" for you. Even if someone doesn't like your case it is in no way deserving of the lowest possible rating.
