  • Great price for a solid PSU & case combination, High efficiency 500W SLI/Crossfire capable PSU included, Case construction is very solid, Perfect glossy paint job, Interior layout simple but effective, HDD mounts on rubber spacers, Solid front and high qu...
  • Installation of external 3.5 inch and 5.25 inch drives easier but still complicated, No active cooling for hard drives, Power & Reset button are covered by door, LED are both blue what is what?, No Firewire connectivity up front, Door looks good on outsid...
  • The Antec Sonata III is a great combination of a high efficiency brand name power supply with ample power under the hood to supply a fairly high end system with SLI/Crossfire and quad core inside a very solid case. It is hard to find such a combination...

  • Sleek look, Plenty of front panel connectors: 2 USB, a headphone, a microphone, and an eSATA, Easy Installation, A 120 mm TriCool fan with adjustable setting included, Fan filters, Noise-dampening rails, Well-constructed with no sharp edges, A decent 500W...
  • Price, PSU may not be strong enough for high end system, Fan controller is inside the case, No firewire on the front panel connector, Fan makes rattling noise if not positioned right, Front connectors are not covered, No cable management
  • The third incarnation of the original Sonata maintains the goods of the original Sonata. Antec has not made too many changes from the original design and it is understandable as the original Sonata has some of the best features in a computer case. T...

  • Abstract:  Once again Antec is hard at work bringing us a new product lineup. This time they have redesigned their quiet series case with the release of the Sonata III. This sexy black beauty is targeted towards those who dont want to spend a lot of money...

  • With a price-tag in the region of £79, the Antec Sonata III 500 isn’t ultra cheap. However, that sum also buys you a fairly high-specd power supply thats currently priced at £52.88 from YOYOtech and doesnt seem to be selling for significantly less a...

  • Abstract:  The Sonata III is the third version of Antecs mid-range quiet PC case. Although it isnt very cheap, the price includes a 500W power supply, so it is good value. The top half of the lockable front panel hinges open to reveal three 5.25in bays and t...

  Published: 2007-08-18, review by: alphr.com

  • Abstract:  The original Sonata was one of the first chassis to address the issue of noise. Besides a fascia overhaul, the third iteration isnt vastly different, adding HD audio and eSATA outputs to the front, as well tweaks to the internal airflow. Otherwise,...

  • Great power supply
  • Awkward to work inside
  • If youre setting up a new-build PC then the Sonata III is a good investment. Its got a 500W PSU pre-installed in the case, which comes with the requisite dual 6-pin PCI-E plugs needed if youre looking at fitting a whopper like the 8800GTX, or an SLI...

  • I was surprised at how quiet this case really is. However, there are even more things that Antec could have done to make this even better. Foam covered side panels would absorb noise and rubber grommet’s on the 5.25” bays would stop annoying o...

  • Antec stellt den neuen Sonata III gekonnt ins Licht. Technik und Optik vom Feinsten.Zusätzliche Schnittstellen an der Front wie eSATA sind immer noch eine Seltenheit auf die Antec jedoch nicht verzichtet. Die beliebte Quermontage der Festplatten sowie...
