I was wondering if the Antec Sonata's 380W PS is sufficient for an Athlon64 3000+ 754 system with a 6800 GT. (minimal drives) I do plan to do some moderate overclocking later on. I assume I'd have to replace the PS to achieve decent overclocking?
If the PS is insufficient, what case would you suggest instead? I'm looking for one preferrably with 120mm fans and a simple elegant look. Many I've looked at simply have crappy PSUs. Would I be wasting money if ditched them and replaced it with a quality PS? Is it worth paying ~$15 shipping for a case? ... Is the Super LANBOY that ugly in person?
I admit that I knew choosing components for my computer would take some time but I never knew the case would be the component that hung me up the most. I'd prefer not to spend over $150 for a PS and case, but if that's what needs to be done for me to be satisfied, I'm welcome to hear it.
