I was thinking on getting a Antec Sonata II with 450W PSU for a cheap system I am making but I was thinking if there is anything else out there like a Lian Li + a Huntkey 450W that does an even better job for the same price or better?
 
I don't know huge amounts about Huntkey PSUs, they seem decent enough from the reviews I have found but I'm still not convinced for a high end system. However for a cheap system I'd be looking at the Antec SLK6500 or SLK4400 although the second of the two is only if it is a fairly low powered system. :)

//edit and the questions Huddy is asking. :)
 
Is there any reason for a 450W?

What's your requirements? It's ok asking what case and PSU we'd recommend but what are you looking for? Budget>, Fairly future proof?, Good looks?, Size, what are you going to have inside it etc etc..?
 
Well, I am asking for an office computer with decent looks. I like the Lian Li PC7 tbh for that.

It is only going to have a low end C2D and integrated graphics.
 
Chances are you'll have to buy a graphics card for one of the newer 775 boards anyway. A 7300 for £30 will more than do the job, though, and the PSU you mentioned will be fine. The Lian-Li is a great case. The pics never do them justice. :)
