PSU for Core2Duo rig.

Here are my specifications:

Intel core2duo E8600 + Cooler Master DI5-9HDSL-0L-GP Cooler
4 GB RAM(2*2Gigs)
9600GT GDDR3 512MB(planning to upgrade by EOY)
500 GB WD
500 GB Seagate(Might swap one of them for 1TB by EOY..Effective would be 1.5TB)

CoolerMaster Elite 310 Cabinet + 120 mm fan at back(CM) + 60 mm fan at front(CM)

Can you suggest me a nice futureproof PSU for the setup...which would fit in the cabinet ?
Budget = If its suits the setup + my future needs ready to spend around 3.5 -4k

Seasonic S12II 520 @ 4K, the best at your budget.

^^ As for now, please refrain from suggesting Seasonic PSUs. Availibility & RMA might be a big issue in coming future.
@OP: Buy Corsair GS600 @4K

^^Why is that so ? pls elaborate.

GS600 is around 4.7k and not 4k, so it is out of budget.
