Antec B Stock

I'm looking to buy a Sonata II, but there isn't much info on the website as to whether or not they come w/ or w/o PSUs.

Does anyone know for sure?
 
yep, comes with the powers supply.

The dotted line lists it.
I missed it myself the first time I read it

It looks like a refurb to me. The original power supply that came with the Sonata II was problematic, so I bet that they got a lot of returns. If you get that case, though, the paint probably will be scratched. The finish on those cases isn't very durable.

The funny thing is that I've built 5 systems with that case, and none of them have had problems so far. Maybe they fixed the power supply problems in the later releases, or I've just been lucky!

(Fingers Crossed) 🙂
 
I have the power supply that comes with the Antec Sonata II (though I own two of the original Sonatas). I'm just keeping my figures it doesn't blow up my system.

I don't think they are refurbs. The description makes it sound like they are customer returns for whatever reason and so they resell them at a lower price. I'm not too worried about scratches as it is will be a secondary PC for the wife and kids to surf the net. And it'll be running older hardware, so the PSU should be sufficient. It seems like a pretty good deal for a nice / used case at a decent price.
