I just made my power consumption estimate for a system i'm planning on building and I got around 350W For this system

Athlon 64 3500+
Mushkin 1GB DDR433 Level One
ASUS A8V Deluxe
Visiontek Radeon X800 XT
2 Western Digital 36.7 SATA drives
Nu DDW-082 DVD-RW
Lite-On 16x dvd-rom
Creative Audigy 2
along with keyboard..mouse..and USB devices

Now, would I be okay going with the TRUE380 PSU supplied with the sonata case? is having 30W to play with, enough? I'd like to keep it if I can.
 
I think you'll be fine with a quality PSU like the TruePower in the Antec Sonata.
 
I've had the Trupower 380W in my machine and loved it... Never had a problem and the fan is silent too.
 
Yeah, I really like the sonata case...my days of 5 high speed fans and insane OCing are over...I enjoy silence :D ..and my ability to hear things :rolleyes:
