Got mine today. What a deal!

Question: People are killing this power supply in the Sonata but should I be able to run an OC'ed Opty and a low end GPU OK?

I think people are just jumping on the anecdotal bandwagon. I've built 8 rigs using the SP2 450W PSU and haven't had issues with any (3 months - 1yr out).

I'm running an Opti 144 @ 290FSB on an ECS KN1 with a EVGA 7600GT on the PSU - should be able to handle anything short of 8xx/19xx series or SLI.
 
Got both of them the other day and I already sold the PSU out of the sonata for $40 making the case $8(damn sales tax) AR...pretty sweet. Thanks again OP.

Now the waiting game begins on the rebates.
