Advantages: Great looks, well built, quiet, good display unit, built in IR Receiver
Disadvantages: Limited display options

Having only used budget cases to build your typical bog standard PC's before I was initially a little nervous at spending over £100 on a case. However I needn't have worried as this is well worth the money. The case is quite heavy and feels very sturdy, it does look a little on the chunky side but this size allows you to use a full size drive and expansion cards, if you choose a slimline case you will be more limited with the components you can ...
...smart with a bright blue display and (very bright) blue ring around the power button. The display can be customised to a limited extent through the included software to show a range of information including various system information, time and date, email status, local weather and news and media information (if using Media Centre or Win Amp). The rather large but tactile knob only controls volume and works fine with my system. The front panel also ... Read review

Advantages: Low noise, very good airflow + cooling, easier cable management, stylish
Disadvantages: High price, better airflow available

...do this - hardly convenient! Antec has managed to enable the odd layout to support more PSUs than the P180, and the cable routing options have been vastly improved, allowing for a cooler, and therefore faster or quieter, computer. Having said all of this, for maximum airflow (and price) other cases, such as the Antec Nine Hundred, provide a better option, with the disadvantage of more noise, worse looks and fewer of the little touches Antec have ...

Advantages: Looks, Airflow, Ease of Use
Disadvantages: Durability of the front panel door

After searching high and low for a case that looked right and could house a full atx board, I found this one. This is a great case which is *quite* durable. Installing my ASUS p5b delux motherboard in this case was very straight forward. All the holes were positioned correctly and the standoffs went in perfectly. The connectors for the front panel were used for USB and audio. These connections are behind a little slide down door which makes it ...
...little problem with this slide down door. After moving it a few times all of a sudden I heard a snap! To my amazement, the part of the door that keeps the door shut had broken away. Therefore, I can no longer close this door, without it sliding back down. This is a very minor thing though, and I'm not too fussed. The motherboard connectors for the front panel were able to be inserted into my motherboard correctly, without having any issues with ... Read review

Advantages: Innovation with a Decent Price Tag
Disadvantages: Nothing

The Antec P180 has been around for a long while now, and with the launch of the Antec 900 aimed specifically at gamers, Im here to suggest that you might want to re-think that purchase. The interior of the P180 is truly innovative, with the power supply unit located at the bottom of the case instead of the top, it has it's own 120mm fan, which is around 38mm thick, to suck cool air from the front of the case, over the hard drives (too cool them) ...
...come with one 80mm), but antec have been generous, and being multi-level fans with speed control they've been super generous. One of these 120mm fans acts as an exhaust for hot air in the roof, to loose that heat also there is another fan placed in the rear of the case aswell. So 3 multi-function fans for "free" in this amazing case. There is also more space, yes more space for another 120mm fan to be fitted to the front of the case below the 5.25in ... Read review

Advantages: Good case, roomy, easy to install components, included PSU and fan of high quality.
Disadvantages: Rubber stoppers on the bottom fall off often (this is a very minor niggle though)

I bought one of these for building my first computer about a month ago. It was extremely easy to fit all the parts inside it and I had my PC up and running inside of a few hours. It is not clearly displayed in the picture, but the top half of the front of the case opens up to reveal the slots for your CD rom drive, floppy drive, etc. Both this door on the front and the side panel have locks on with a key provided. There is a 500W power supply provided ...
...before you buy) This is more than enough to cope with anything you might want to power inside the case (high end graphics cards, extra fans etc.) and is supposedly 80%+ efficient. If you want to find out more about the included power supply then search around for "Antec 500W earthwatts PSU". It's very easy to slot and screw in all the different components you would want to install, with a full range of screws etc. provided with the case. I did have ... Read review
