    Wouldn't mind one of these!
  • spyofchaos - Wednesday, November 16, 2011 - link

    Like the flaps around the holes to hide your wires. :)

    Antec did it right again.
  • ogboba - Thursday, November 17, 2011 - link

    should come out with a mini version too
  • tedrodai - Thursday, November 17, 2011 - link

    Good luck guys. Haven't tried an Antec case before, but this one looks like it could work out ; )
  • InfoTiger - Thursday, November 17, 2011 - link

    I can have one more Antec case.

    Great case. I would love it!
  • rashmeister - Friday, November 18, 2011 - link

    I feel like they're not as awesome as some of the new low-price competitors. Don't get me wrong, I love my Antec Lanboy case, but that's from 7 years ago!
  • glblevins - Friday, November 18, 2011 - link

    Would be a good companion to my Antec 900
  • kmmatney - Friday, November 18, 2011 - link

    Awesome!
  • jleach1 - Friday, November 18, 2011 - link

    if i don't switch out my cooler master storm scout soon, my i7-930 is going to bake. Or the mice will move in.
  • igowerf - Friday, November 18, 2011 - link

    Sweet sweet case...
  • segarion - Monday, November 21, 2011 - link

    One for me please.
  • Aporia - Tuesday, November 22, 2011 - link

    entering ;)
  • jeglwar - Tuesday, November 22, 2011 - link

    I like Antec!
  • ExodusC - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    I've built several systems for myself and others, but I've never got to see if the Antec PXXX series cases were all they were cracked up to be. Would love to play around with one of these!
  • cordlessmodem - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    They're pretty sweet. I've got an old 180 that I like, but aggravates me every time I open it. The drive bays changed from those silly cage things to that side-view slot load are the best part, and the button not being behind the door is delicious icing on a delicious cake.
  • doiron - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    sweet. I'll take one
  • tommy2q - Wednesday, November 16, 2011 - link

    every power supply and case i own is from antec

  • PuppettMaster001 - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    Such a purdy case.
  • Nexus-7 - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    I'd be happy to take one off your hands!
  • icedredrink - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    This thing looks phenomenal.
  • Homeles - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    I so badly need a new case. This OEM piece of garbage needs to go.
  • vandervander15 - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    Using a BE-2400 in a Solo currently, would be awesome to upgrade my rig, starting with this awesome case!
  • halff - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    this is a nice case
  • Quatrefury - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    I have been in need of a new case. My old one just not have the air flow to cool my setup and I am tired of having the cover off.
  • helvetio - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    I would like a P280 case please!
    Thank you in advance.
    Chris
  • Incursion - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    I would love one of these since my current case has horrible cable management!
  • KikassAssassin - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    I'm getting tired of my Nine Hundred, and I've been considering replacing it with a case that's quieter, easier to work with, and has better cable routing features. This case looks like it fits the bill perfectly!
  • CloudX - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    I want to win it! Looks very nice.
  • Ethaniel - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    I'm at the other side of the planet so I can't be part of the contest, and customs would probably charge me something like 300 bucks to get it out... but it looks great. Good luck!
  • tspacie - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    Heavy with steel
  • roedtogsvart - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    New build, here I come!
  • ejiggyb - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    I can fill it.
  • clawsonj - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    My current case (not my choice) is full of blue LEDs, noisy, and I don't like it!

    This new P280 looks great, nice and clean!
  • PsiAmp - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    Pick me! Pick me!

  • nightarya - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    Woohoo, antec cases! Love all the antec stuff i've owned :)
  • kyuu - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    Count me in.
  • Tuggster - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    This case would be awesome to start my new system!
  • Aegrum - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    I have been waiting for this case since I first saw it from the Computex screenshots. I have mulled over buying a P183 for a while now, but didn't want to pull the trigger due to it's dated build techniques.

    I currently own an Antec 900 and it is loud. Not obnoxiously so. But easily north of 55dB, close to 65dB under load. As this is in the room where I sleep, I have been waiting on bated breath for the P280 to hit the stores, and after reading this review, I think I have to have one.

    Whether I win one or not, I'm still going to buy it and save my ears from my current Antec 900.

    Thanks guys!
  • SanLouBlues - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    Flaws and all, they're good enough.

  • rumblpak - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    Do want and am poor unemployed college student.
  • Aharami - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    Was just reading this review this morning and was thinking to myself - man that's a sweet case! Would love to have a case like this one, considering I'm still using a 10 yr old Antec from my first build - goes to show how tough these Antec cases are.
  • nmm - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    Sign me up!
  • sivmac239 - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    Once again a great Antec case
  • mplee73 - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    I like the large opening for the cooler access.
  • millpub - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    I love my mini-P180. Good to see the line moving forward.
  • egtx - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    Would love to build my next rig in one of these!
  • buttertoes - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    This case looks awesome. Quite an involvement from the earlier models.
  • Joz - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    Could use a new case, my old Centurion 5 is starting to show its age; and I need to upgrade to a bigger case anyway.
    So, toss this delicious hunk of manufacturing my way?
  • Tator Tot - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    I love the Performance One Series from Antec, and I'd love a chance at this case just to make my rig a bit more dust proof and silent.
  • paglamia - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    will be a worthy upgrade from my current shoe box.
  • FragKrag - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    A new case would be nice...can I have one please?
  • sin_tax - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    It would be perfect for my new build...
  • Lu-Max - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    It's about time for a new PC build. Going from my P180 to this P280 would be perfect.
  • darunium - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    and P193, I'd love to see what this one's made of, although I just moved to the fortress FT02 and am super happy with that.

    nice case. Would fit nice in my upcoming pc build.
  • webmastir - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    This looks like a pretty freaking awesome case. I recently started a 'build-a-new' pc fund for some newer games I'd like to play. This would definitely help out. Thanks AnandTech!
  • smithlua - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    Hi, I'd like to win this and then...give it away. Currently in the process of building a sweet PC for a family member and this would no doubt wow them.
  • jhh979s - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    Would make an excellent upgrade.

    Want.
  • Nesrie - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    I have an antec right now, and my new build could be eager to have one too!
  • peterdemski - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    I've been pretty excited over the new sandybrige chips and planning on replacing an old Opteron OC'd to 3.Ghz that has been feeling very tired the last year or two. If memory serves me this would be twice as expensive as the nicest case I've ever owned so I would very much appreciate one.
  • Davidlim - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    Great for a new system build... or at least leverage for approval by the misses ;)
  • djuuuaann - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    Do want!

  • joewongvt - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    Need to replace my 5 yr. old computer, this would be a good start.
  • MorpheusMan - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    Still using the original P180 (broken door hinge and all). In spite of the broken hinge, it's been a great case. However, the P280 looks like an awesome upgrade.
  • henrinicolas - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    Thanks for your wonderful and concise reviews. Much read and appreciated!

    I plan on building a system in Q1 of 2012 once Ivy Bridge and the 28nm GPUs are released. Getting a case for free would definitely cut the cost a little. :D
  • thechunga - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    That would be a great case to checkout and compare to my P182!
  • Taenon - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    I could use a case that fits modern AMD GPU's, unlike the otherwise pretty good Cooler Master Storm Scout.
  • oigaboiga99 - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    I'd like an Antec case, please! Or at least the chance to win one.

    Wanted to be my next case, pls!
  • Hruodgar - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    Need a case that would allow me to leave all the harddrive cages in when putting in oversize graphics cards (which all of them seem to be nowadays).
  • NurFACE1 - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    This case has a lot to offer with cable management holes and tie scraps for back plate. A case that offers nice cable management and low sound. I'm very impressed with this case lay out which is hard to do for a person owning a HAF 932 but I have been won over with this design for any future built pc's.
  • jgarcows - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    I'd love to win one.
  • Syclone - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    Nice case.

    Dustin Sklavos, Case -Reviewer of the Year!

    Someone who cannot have the time for anything but reviewing cases, judging by how many case reviews he gets out there. That they're the best around does not go unappreciated (by me at least). I don't think most people understand how awful most case reviews are (much less every other component I see out in the wild). Cut and paste does not make for a good review, and most people don't try to give even passing interest to properly writing about cases and so many other components too. Mainly, its about enthusiasm... Which must be difficult to summon on a case by case basis (a case pun, back at you).
  • tehoriman - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    Being as my current case, also an Antec, is missing both sides due to family member mishaps, I'd love to have a real new case for my computer.
  • bosecondensate - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    The case looks awesome. here's my entry
  • bluebee21 - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

  • 1080p720p - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    I have used my current Antec Sonata III 500 for 3 years and it is great. While I still want to upgrade it if I am lucky enough considering the front panel issue in my old case. Thank you Anand for providng such an opportunity! ~
  • Cisephys - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    I've got a P180 and, while I like it, the P280 would be a nice upgrade in a number of ways. The drive trays that face out the side of the case instead of towards the back would be worth it all by themselves -- I haaaaaaate the rear-facing drive trays in the P180.
  • EDALBNUG - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    I never liked how my P182 has power switch inside the front bay door. This should be a worthy upgrade.
  • adamkavon - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    But... now I want this. :D

    ... just in case.
  • Cuddlez - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    Awesome looking case
  • Apdomke - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    I'm still loving my 4 year old P180B that houses my current rig. And after reading the P280 review, it tickles me in all the right ways. And let's be honest, you gotta love the styling of the Performance One series: simple, elegant, refined, classy, without all the gaudy excess of LEDs lighting up a room like the deck of an aircraft carrier. Really hoping i win one of these!
  • lorez - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

  • finalheaven - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    winner!
  • DSperlak - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    I used to think you had to be flashy from a case perspective to really stand out from the crowd. It seems nowadays the opposite is true. This case and many other Antecs have that simple look that while plain still draws attention. There's something to be said for that simple elegance, definitively will look at this one for my next build.
  • victorjake - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    Would love to have one! I'm building a new rig this year (getting my parts during BF sales) but if I could snag one of these, I could use the extra money for better parts!

  • qiankun - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    One thing missing from the review is the acoustic performance with many (>= 4) hard drives inside. Some cases perform well when there is only one or two drives, but vibrates like crazy when there's a lot more.

  • Shinobisan - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    I like the cases coming out recently.
    removable dust covers, PSU on the bottom, lots of room for GPUs, wiring solutions.

    I think the dust issue was way under-rated for so long.
    An air cooler looses so much of its ability over time... when gunked up with dust.

  • soulrider4ever - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    I'm a huge fan of antec, I own the Solo, and would love a Solo II, these new P280's would fit the bill just as nicely. I think Antec really does a great job of taking feedback from users and putting them into motion - so to speak. Great job guys, keep up the good work.

  • Kurisu2019 - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    I have kept my brilliant P182SE case as long as I can. Three months ago, one of the USB connectors fell out. Last week, the second front connector fell out. One of the grommets detached itself recently too. It is a glorious case, be certain...but it is showing its age and I need a strong, reliable replacement.

  • Inspector2211 - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    Most cases have only 7, even the good old Antec Twelvehundred (that's why I sold it to a coworker recently). Eight are needed for four dual-slot graphics cards, but it's good that there is some space between the power supply and the bottom graphics card.
  • Khato - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    Other than their lanboy air, the majority of antec case releases have been simple rehash or updates of previous designs. This is the first case in quite some time that actually appears to be a new design, and it certainly is looking good.
  • wallstreet1 - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

But now that I'm entering the contest it would be nice to win, at least ONCE this year....*fingers crossed*

  • geogecko - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    Looks amazing. Doing a new build, and this would be awesome. Was trying to decide between the P183V3, FT02, or a Lian Li case. A free case would win in this case, especially with it being this new Antec... Looks like it may need to be positive pressurized to get the full benefit out of it though, based on the review.

    Just in time!
  • tiquio - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    I could definitely use a new case. This would be perfect to replace my budget $20 case I have right now.
  • numbertheo - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    Finally a P series case without the assembly difficulties
  • fffblackmage - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    Just kinda wish there were more space for 3.5" HDDs and less space for 5.25" optical drive.

    I'd take it!
  • roc3 - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

  • rohitp - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    I swear to god I am currently building my own system (all I have is a 6 year old laptop) and I read the full review this morning on the case. I do not have the budget for this one, so if I can get one for free...yoohooo!
  • waydiddy - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    Case looks great, would be a nice upgrade from my Antec 300. I get a case like that, I finally go modular with a new 2500K!
  • foundchild1 - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    Please!
  • Aganack1 - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

  • iamnotawizard - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    All of my criticisms of my experience with Antec cases seem to be well handled in the new iteration. I'd love to get my hands on one!
  • schizoide - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    My old P180 is filthy, none of the fans work anymore, and the front door is about to fall off. So here's hoping!

    :D...
  • dgingeri - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    I've had a P180B before. It was rather troublesome. This looks to fix all the issues I had with the P180B. I like it. Sure looks better than my Coolermaster HAF932.
  • nkm - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    This would be a nice upgrade to my P182 :)

  • BigDragon - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    The review is great and this case looks like a solid product.

    I probably won't build a new desktop until Ivy Bridge and some new GPUs show up. It wouldn't hurt to get a head start on a case though!

  • mountaingoat - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    would be perfect for my SB build
  • Scabies - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    yeah the cutouts on the motherboard tray and devoting more space to 3.5 drives than 5.25 ones gives this a win. speaking of winning.... :)
  • Peteman100 - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    I love my P182! Wouldn't mind an upgrade.
  • Light65 - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

  • thatjerkjosh - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    Antec is a great company, I used their Solo for a few years and can attest to the high build quality and durability. The P280 looks awesome!
  • icodestuff - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    Is it substantially taller than the 180? I've only got a couple more inches between the top of the case and bottom of the desk.
  • tigz630 - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    Superb ! professional looks.
  • AlphaVortex - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    I recently got permission to put some money into a new PC build, but had to cut out a new case to pay for my i5-2500k. :( My old case is noisy and held together with duct tape (really!). Loved the review of the case, it sounds like just what I need.

    ... P180, with a busted door and a warped side panel. Yes I have the older design that didn't have reinforced side panels that don't warp under heat!
  • eosmund - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    I love my P182 and I think one of these P280s would be the perfect upgrade.
  • BabyBear - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    Nice case. Only thing that is a bit of a put off is the fact it has a door on the front.
  • policy11 - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    Yes, please!
  • BuckeyePC - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

  • Cheesetogo - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    I bought my P180 over 6 years ago for my first system. It's the only thing I've never changed out. It's quite beaten, but not defeated. I'll have to give the P280 a good look when I can afford it.
  • demonbug - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    Yes indeed, here we are.
  • AmdInside - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    I used to own the P180 and loved how quiet it was. But because I change internal components so often to have the fastest computer, I found the dual chamber design before difficult to use. This new case looks like everything I wanted out of the P180. I sure wish I could win this case.
  • LABTYD - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    Loks well designed like the rubber gromets in the pass thru's
  • manoj252 - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

  • bunsenbunner - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    Picking a case has always been the hard part for me in building a new PC. I'm not a fanboy by any means, although I currently have the P182 and the original old school Lanboy. Going from the Lanboy to the P182 was a dramatic change and made me love quiet PC cases. My only gripe about the P182 was the lack of room. Removing the internal HDD bay to fit my 9800gtx was disheartening but a necessary evil.

    I was planning on going with with the Silverstone FT02 or RV02-E but now that this case is out, its no contest. Looking forward to building my Sandy-E bridge in this case!

    Mid-plane fans... hmm... that could let you load it up with harddisks, run front and mid-plane low-flow fans, and still get decent cooling with enough airflow to keep a hotter (but not too crazy) GPU/CPU setup cool.

    Hmmmm...

  • kschaffner - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    I have always loved the quality in which Antec builds into their cases, you can see it from every corner of the product. On top of that great build quality you can now get a very quiet experience. Would love to make my room that much more appealing and quiet with this sitting in the corner.
  • Spiral008 - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    Having just re-assembled my system in the P182 with a new PSU and SSD, I realize I had forgotten how much of a pain it was to work with, despite it being an awesome case nonetheless. A P280 would certainly be nice for an upcoming Ivy Bridge build, though!

    I bought the original p180 case when it came out. It's held up really well except for the hinge on the door. As much as I love the case I think it's time for a replacement. The P280 will be perfect.

  • Akinos242 - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    Looks like a nice case. Would be good to upgrade my aging Gigabyte 3D Aurora.
  • willspe60 - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    I'd love to get one of these!

    Looks like a nice upgrade for my old p180
  • thayden56 - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    I could use one.
  • clearcache - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    I could use a case like that.
  • blfinche - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    Give me one and I will compare it to my 180.
  • XabanakFanatik - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    My old P180B is looking outdated anyway, also I've snapped off quite a few plastic tabs by this point.
  • billdcat4 - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    cool, im in
  • soydios - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    Lookin for a new build companion to my P160
  • jkwall - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    Not as pretty as the 182 with the mirrored finish that I always wanted... but I like it...
  • Mr.Burns - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    This time? Maybe?
  • jjcrandall - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    I've been overall impressed w/Antec. I liked the P180 design, but chose to go with a silverstone case on one computer, and a coolermaster on another.

    loosing the chambers isn't such a big deal either.
  • mooshie - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    Antec and anandtech.
  • jesh462 - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    Read the whole review as requested. I'm glad to see Antec stepping up the plate and daring to make some major changes, even if it's not exactly what I'd buy. Good job Antec.
  • Bogdobbler - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    This thing has tons of room to grow.
  • Max Insanity - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    I'm still using my P180 that I've had for years and have been shopping around for a new case. This would be a great replacement for my old dinosaur, especially in the "roomier and easier to work with" category. You know you want to pick me as a gracious recipient!
  • METALMORPHASIS - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    Buy this case,just in case,..I don't win?
  • digitalrefuse - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    I've got a P180 and a P160 (anybody remember that one) sitting under my desk right now... I've always built with Antec cases and up until very recently, with Antec power supplies. My last two PSU purchases were Corsair - only because of the single rail - if Antec made a single rail, modular PSU I'd be all over it!
  • Greg512 - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    It would be nice to have a nice, quiet case, considering the nice and noise of my current one...
  • Adam Turney - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    I love Antec cases. They have been my primary builds for years now. This would be a nice upgrade.

    In!!!
  • Zoomer - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    Antec should consider including an insert to cover one of/both the top 120 mm spaces. This will help with reducing noise, while leaving open the radiator option.
  • professionalpcpoweruserextraordinaire - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    I need this! Im rocking a old Cooler Master Cavalier...and its gross. Thanks!
  • mander03 - Tuesday, November 15, 2011 - link

    It seems like Antec always seems to put thought into their cases. Some are good, some aren't great, but overall, a good quality case...Put me down for one.

    It's about time for a new build for me, and my trusty old Antec SX1040BII to be retired into home server duty. This looks like a quality replacement that may last me just as long as the SX has (which I bought in 2003).

  • Spacecomber - Wednesday, November 16, 2011 - link

    The first computer (a 486DX system) I purchased was built in an Antec case, which led to me buying a second similar case for my next system. Since then, I've continued to make frequent use of Antec cases for systems that I build. I would be happy to have this new P280 model to play with, as well, since I haven't really checked out Antec's higher end cases, lately.

    I was also looking at the Corsair cases as of late, I couldn't find anything else I liked other than the same case. I have an original P180 without cable management and have been dying with the cables lately, plus I wanted a bigger case for more hard drives since I'm maxed. I was considering a P183 but couldn't justify the price to upgrade to an identical looking case. My case is still perfect and I am having trouble justifying the purchase, so I better win one instead!

    Hello Anandtech,

    I have been following your great reviews and contests for years and years and have noticed that some contests due to the size of the prize, you had to restrict to US only, but smaller prize's, i guess can be made as Worldwide contests so that global readers can have a chance to win as well.

    Please think about it. :)
  • ithirdeye - Wednesday, November 16, 2011 - link

  • LeeF - Wednesday, November 16, 2011 - link

    Looks like this would be a huge improvement over my original P180. I just installed an SSD in mine... nightmare. I ended up having to use a horrible series of adaptors to mount it to a 5.25" drive bay, because none of the screw holes lined up between any of my 3.5" adaptors and the P180s 3.5" trays or lower drive cage.
  • Hassan726 - Wednesday, November 16, 2011 - link

    I tried a few mid tower cases in the past, but always end up coming back to the superior quality of Antec. This one appears to be right on par!

    For the past few years, I've been suffering with these mini cases like the Antec NSK-1380. Frankly, I'm done with them and would really love to have a case that has room, airflow and a subdued look (i.e. no led fans, neon lights, side windows, etc.).

    Keeping my fingers crossed!

  • Rocket321 - Wednesday, November 16, 2011 - link

    I read Dustin's review yesterday and am sooo excited about this case! It looks great. I have been an Antec fan for years but lately their designs have disappointed me. Not with this case, I think they made great design choices and I really hope these filter down to the lower tier cases in the coming months/years.

    Thanks for the great reviews and the giveaways are always fun :)

  • Figaro56 - Wednesday, November 16, 2011 - link

    This is almost perfect. I would have appreciated a large 220mm fan in the side panel to keep my dual video cards nice and cool, but over all a great looking classic case I would love to own. My Thermaltake is perfect either.

    I was originally waiting for bulldozer to build a new desktop as my aging C2D doesn't really cut it anymore for gaming. I plan to wait for Ivy Bridge to build a new computer but need a good tower that's quiet to build it with. Would love to have the P280 for my build.
  • James5mith - Wednesday, November 16, 2011 - link

    I would like a P280.

    The review was solid. As much as I don't like the "Larger" cases, I think this could work out OK for me.

    I've been considering upgrading my Lian-Li LanColl PC7 for a Fractal case, but this would work just as well. :)

  • rimshaker - Wednesday, November 16, 2011 - link

    Got a P182 for my current rig now. Building that rig never felt more satisfying thanks to that case.

    Only difference i noticed is this new P280 doesn't have brushed aluminum sides like the previous models.

    I would love to have this case. I own a P180 and I've suffered through the difficulty of managing its innards. But the case has been good to me and has kept my computer running. I would love to give the P280 the same care and thought I gave the P180.

    Currently using an antec 900 case, but I got to say I prefer the more subdued case w/o all the LED fans and no see-through case side. Being more soundproofed is also a plus (my PS fan is starting to get noisy) and this one lets me orient the PSU properly.

    I've been excited about this case since I saw the Antec facebook post yesterday. I have a P180 right now and have loved the case - I wouldn't mind getting a P280 to try and new system and see how they compare.
  • kwalford1 - Wednesday, November 16, 2011 - link

    I could use a new case :)

    Seriously. So many other cases over do things, much like a hot rod over does a car, but this is simple and slick. Love it
  • amdnerd3368 - Wednesday, November 16, 2011 - link

    Yes! It would go well with my 1200 and my p182 :)
    And since I never win anything. I'd be ecstatic!

    Thanks for the thorough review. I wish more cases used features such as those shown here. I don't think I'm crazy about the door (personal preference) and the size is larger than I need, but at least it's not too small!

  • daishi5 - Wednesday, November 16, 2011 - link

    I need a nice case for my new build, and I would love one of these.

    If I win, I just need to hide it from myself until the wife lets me buy the rest of my components. If I had to look at the case everyday I don't think I could resist ordering the parts and getting in trouble.
  • Niemand3D - Wednesday, November 16, 2011 - link

    I'm impressed and interested in building a system with it.

    I want to win because cake.
  • Massdeth - Wednesday, November 16, 2011 - link

    Im so glad to see Antec making a more elegant case thats bigger rather than smaller. Mobos are getting bigger and more populated, air sinks are too, psu's are longer, ram is taller etc... and everyone wants to squeeze this stuff into smaller boxes...it just dont work. These are desktops, so going bigger isnt going to hurt anything. If i wanted a case to drag all over h--l's half acre than i would get a big desktop with a removeable tray, custom build a lanbox to fit it and go from there.I saw some others complaining about dual chambers, like on a P182, and i agree with them, but if it was implemented in bigger cases than it would work to our advantage, instead of being a pita! So the moral of the story manufacturers....build bigger cases already!! Antec has the right idea here...super mid-tower with a elegant look and NO plastic armor. Thats another trend that needs to die.Oh, and yes, id love to win one too!!
  • odditude - Wednesday, November 16, 2011 - link

    'nuff said.

    ...me one of these sexyfine lookin' cases.
  • Mindlink - Wednesday, November 16, 2011 - link

    I'd love to switch to a top-line case like this. Sadly, that didn't fit in the budget during the last build, so still reusing the old one :(
  • dechiridas - Wednesday, November 16, 2011 - link

    I'd probably use this as a replacement for an HTPC Silverstone case I have. Taking up horizontal real estate just isn't working out. It's time to go vertical, baby.
  • dhanson8652 - Wednesday, November 16, 2011 - link

  • schlatts - Wednesday, November 16, 2011 - link

    The P280 looks like a great case. Would love to use this to replace my Antec Three Hundred case being used for a WHS machine (too noisy) and compare it to my main PC in an Antec P182 case. I love Antec cases!
  • MLSoccer06 - Wednesday, November 16, 2011 - link

  • Tifosi248F1 - Wednesday, November 16, 2011 - link

    I'm planning a new build for between now and the end of the month and I was going to reuse the Antec Super LanBoy my current system is in to save some money. A new, larger case with better cooling options would be fantastic, and the possibility of not having to sacrifice anything to stay within budget would be awesome.
  • Solix - Wednesday, November 16, 2011 - link

    I desperately need a new case, it was bought on Craigslist for $40. It's spray painted black, has electrical tape holding it together, and cut holes for ventilation. I bought it because my original mid-tower couldn't hold a Geforce GTX260 without pressing up against my hard drive cage.

  • urebelscum - Wednesday, November 16, 2011 - link

    I've been eyeing the P180 & P182 for a while on good looks, and Fractal's R3 recently. I didn't like the P183 looks, while it had better performance than P182. But the P280 looks and performs as I like. Still a toss up between P280 & R3, but wining this would really help me decide. Thanks!

    I've been a long time fan of Antec cases and have been using them exclusively for many years. I had started to wonder if I was going to see an Antec case I really liked again, as some of their recent designs weren't my favorite. My faith has been restored, and I love this case.
  • McMannus00 - Wednesday, November 16, 2011 - link

    I'd like one! I need to build my wife a tower in order to get her into PC gaming.
  • Riley Craven - Wednesday, November 16, 2011 - link

    The only thing I don't like about the case, is the front door. Seriously, I don't understand why this case needs something like that. Its just another point of failure. (Though I'd still like a free one!) :)

    Antec has always been my choice for cases. After switching from the P180 case back to my aluminum P160 Antec case, the following features are enough to make me finally upgrade my case.

    "The enclosure is bigger and easier to work in, and has more room for expanding the system inside. There's plenty of space for mounting a good, thick 240mm radiator at the top, cable routing is slightly better, and the two internal fan mounts invite experimentation."

    "Toolless locking mechanisms for the 5.25" drive bays are in place, as well as six drive trays that can support both 3.5" and 2.5" drives, with silicone grommets for the 3.5" drives to minimize vibration."

    "A massive cutout in the tray to maximize compatibility with aftermarket cooling, and rubber-lined holes surround the tray for routing cables to the back."
  • tryb - Thursday, November 17, 2011 - link

  • SteveJobber - Thursday, November 17, 2011 - link

    Case looks great, lot of features too!

    Also, a new case would be nice.

    I love Antec products -- from their cases, to their PSUs to their fans. I've built dozens of PCs with Antec hardware. Good stuff. This one looks great too -- it'd make a really nice server case.
  • LostKaz19 - Thursday, November 17, 2011 - link

    I hope I win! Happy (early) Thanksgiving everyone!
  • cyberman9999 - Thursday, November 17, 2011 - link

    I think the hds shouldn't be sideways. From here, it looks like that reduces airflow pushed by the intake fans. That may not matter much to the hds (cooling wise) but I'd rather have more intake airflow to cool a high end gpu. Also, downward facing psu wouldn't work to well on a rug.
  • JaimeX - Thursday, November 17, 2011 - link

  • truk007 - Friday, November 18, 2011 - link

    I've been using a P182 for over four years now and I love their cases. This would be a welcome addition to my home. It would probably snowball into updating my entire system though, which would be expensive.
  • TheStork - Friday, November 18, 2011 - link

    I'm going to go take a look at this case over the Thanksgiving holiday. I need another case like the Corsair 600T. I wonder if the debut of the P280 for ~$130 USD caused Corsair to drop the price of the 600T down to $120 USD AR at Newegg.

  • allies - Friday, November 18, 2011 - link

    I'm eye components for a new rig. Everything I have is currently housed in a Lian Li V1100. While the case looks nice, it's pretty awful for cable management. I think the P280 would be a breath of fresh air in terms of ease-of-build.

  • Suryjuto - Friday, November 18, 2011 - link

    It's a really nice case, but not quite enough to woo me away from the Corsair cases yet. Wouldn't mind seeing them side-by-side. My current case is feeling quite cramped -- CM690. With an upgrade planned for next year, I need to decide on something methinks. :)
  • stede - Friday, November 18, 2011 - link

  • SlowCobra - Saturday, November 19, 2011 - link

    Dustin sounds a bit biases toward this case. He wants to like it but he just seems stuck on past...failures I guess for lack of a better word. From what I see they made some tremendous improvements and it offers a lot of possibilities as far as configuration goes.
  • 7earitup - Saturday, November 19, 2011 - link

    I really need a new case. I have not bought a new one in 7 years - I always recycle the ones from computers I salvage.
  • Trypticon808 - Saturday, November 19, 2011 - link

    Gimme!
  • rsjet - Saturday, November 19, 2011 - link

    awesome anandtech. Thank you!
  • Trine - Saturday, November 19, 2011 - link

    I definitely enjoy the lack of the sound of a jet taking off in my apartment...the previous gen case does not disappoint when it comes to managing fan noise. Hopefully this one is the same.

  • Stevem627 - Saturday, November 19, 2011 - link

    Antec cases are well done. I would loves one of these cases
  • Accidic - Saturday, November 19, 2011 - link

    That pretty much says it all.
  • Aisorik - Saturday, November 19, 2011 - link

    I would like this case to build a new PC to watch My Little Pony and iCarly in HD.
  • Hadez026 - Saturday, November 19, 2011 - link

    Thanks Anandtech!
  • seabasstin - Saturday, November 19, 2011 - link

  • uncola - Saturday, November 19, 2011 - link

    would love one
  • mmaestro - Saturday, November 19, 2011 - link

    I like my current case, but the damn thing sounds like an airplane taking off (NZXT 921 RB) when I load it up. This would fix that quickly.
  • Desidero - Saturday, November 19, 2011 - link

    It looks very nice. This would be a great start for my new build.
  • mrjoltcola - Saturday, November 19, 2011 - link

    I like the 9 slots, if I could get ASUS to get me SLI cables, I'd SLI three of the 3-slot cards.
  • kawatwo - Saturday, November 19, 2011 - link

    Old girl still working fine but would like a current gen case!
  • sgtpain - Sunday, November 20, 2011 - link

    In the process of building a new computer, so this case would really be helpful
  • hypnotek09 - Sunday, November 20, 2011 - link

    I would love to have this for a Christmas present. My first personal build even.
  • vbaker9 - Sunday, November 20, 2011 - link

    Nice case i'd love to have one.
  • Solid303 - Sunday, November 20, 2011 - link

    If i won one of those i would be able to fit all of my harddrives (they are external USB drives for the moment) inside and maybe even an upgrade of CPU and MoBo! :)

  • e. - Sunday, November 20, 2011 - link

    Good time to upgrade from my P150.
  • slckofit - Sunday, November 20, 2011 - link

    Awesome looking case!!
  • Secretly lever - Sunday, November 20, 2011 - link

    My cheap case drives me crazy and I will probably get this, the bitfenix shimonoseki, or the fractal r3.
  • jonnyp11 - Sunday, November 20, 2011 - link

    Like everyone else I'd like it.
  • akk31.wolfe - Sunday, November 20, 2011 - link

    I've been using the same giant dull beige tower with odd smudges and stains for years. It first housed a P3 800mhz with GeForce 2 MX 32mb graphics (back before the smudges and stains). It's been updated on the inside every couple of years though.

    When my house was broken in to, the thieves never even thought to take it because ugly = old = worthless, no matter how new/expensive the insides really are.

    That said, I could use a new case for an upcoming build.
  • Solfish - Sunday, November 20, 2011 - link

    Well, one of these would be lovely!
  • siriancalmfrost - Monday, November 21, 2011 - link

  • xplayazplayzonx - Monday, November 21, 2011 - link

    Looks very well built especially with air flow in mind. I also like how you have many channels to route cables behind the motherboard tray. I would love to have something like this for my new computer build
  • b4bad - Monday, November 21, 2011 - link

    Nice lookin case, it'd be a shame if I couldn't put my new bulldozer machine inside of this thing. It'd keep it pretty cool inside it looks like.

    I would post pics if I won!
  • BogeyT - Tuesday, November 29, 2011 - link

    Nice review of the Antec chassis. But I unfortunately did not notice the inclusion of a tool to pry a long video card out of my present case in order to make th switch!! Hope I win but would have to give away my old case with the card still wedged in it!
  • knightspawn1138 - Tuesday, November 29, 2011 - link

    One of these would look great under my tree for the holidays!
