I'm running Sonny's on a Sparkle 350 Watt supply which has no problem. The Sparkle is a good dependable supply as is a Fotron Source. Mine has a 500 Watt Aspire in it and it runs ok too. The Aspire isn't all that cheap but you can get the Sparkle reasonable.Both are fairly quiet supplies.

If your going for a combo case, I have bought several Codegen cases and the PSU's that come with them have run AOK also. Sonny's new case came with a bigger supply in it but I put the 350 Watt Sparkle back in because it's better. Many more plugs.
