Hello.
I'm about to build a high end system that will last for a couple of years.
Antec 3700 series and Sonata look pretty appealing.
Problem is 3700 has 350 Watt psu and Sonata 380 Watt one.
Will it be enough for system with Geforce 6800/ 6600 GPU and
last generation AMD 64 socket 939 mobo? (or even socket 739 mobo).
If it is not enough would appreciate any suggestion for
Case and PSU required.
Thanks.

I personally beleive that you can never have enough power. I would suggest Antec 480W Neo ..

If you are going high end I suggest one of the two power supplies:

Ultra XConnect 500W

PC Power and Cooling 510W

Compared to GM cars.
Hummer: PcPower&Cooling, the best
Cadillac: Antec Neo, great power supply
Chevy: Fortron Source, also good
They all get you to where you want to go. I drive a chevy.

OCZ Powerstream 520W, or Enermax Noisetaker 470W. Those have great +12V rails. The newer Antecs(non-truepowers) also have great +12V rails, but the older Truepower PSUs have weak +12V rails.
