Hello, Can someone tell me whats better 3 120mm Fan Port Case or 4 80mm Fan Port Case? Which one is goin to bring more air?
 
Depends on positions I would think, but generally I think that 3 120mm would be a better option.

Do you know what power supply should i get , the case brings a 400watts but i dont know if thats enought.
 
Unless the case is from a nice company, such as Antec, then the PSUs that accompany them are usually not enough to safely supply power to a nice system. What other components are you looking to get, as that will tell how much power your computer will consume. Look into Praetor's PSU101 for some nice suggestions.

OK I have a A8N-SLI Deluxe M/B , im planning on gettin Athlon 64 3500, a 256mb video card like Nvidia 6800GT , and 1GB RAM PC3200. Which PSU is good for all that?

I agree, and the 120mm fans are a lot quieter. I have only 1 80mm thermaltake fan running at 4600rpm and it kills me when im playing bf2
 
Three 120s will almost always be superior. Even silent 120mm fans will be pulling 55CFM for a net of 165cfm ... you can get 80mms to pull out 75CFM for a total of 300CFM but thats comparing silent vs loud... if we max it out 120mms can be pulling 100CFM+ each

Yes but some people dont want quiet boxes :) Im running 4x75CFM Smartfans at full blast ... if its audiable then that means the speakers arent loud enough
