    Antec P-180 comp. PSU thread

    Hi all; Anybody have this case yet? Please list here what power supply you are using and how well the cables fit, especially the ATX. My case should be here Monday, and it looks like you're gonna need a PSU with a nice long ATX cable to get a nice installation. Thanks.

    Newegg.com and the p180

    Seems like Newegg just doen't have the same team running things anymore. Seems a couple of years ago they always had the newest stuff first. Now they seem to either be way behind, or not even know about the items. I have been using ZZF for most of my latest purchases.

    Antec Sonata II and P180 coming soon

    I hate to say it, but I'm about to go to another case myself. The absense of the Antec rep with any update is also not a good sign. :(

    NForce4 Ultra Motherboards

    I have the DFI board. Set up was easy and had no problems at all. not OC'ing yet, but probably will down the line. Always a good option to have.

    DFI Lanparty UT NF4 Ultra-D Video card touching chipset cooler

    Mine doesn't touch, but it is very close. Wouldn't take much of a bens/warp to have it touch.

    Why are Nforce4 chipset fans noisy?

    My DFI Ultra-D chipset fan is not noisy at all. Of course that may change when I get a new case with 120mm fans instead of the 80's I have now. ;)

    got it

    I just got the DFI Ultra-D. Setup was no problem and it is running fine. Haven't done any OC'ing yet. I'm waiting until I get a new case and 24pin PS before cranking up the voltage requirements. :D

    Avoid the first PCI slot?

    Lol, I thought the same thing when I saw that my video and Audigy ZS were on the same IRQ after my install, but no problems so far. (cross fingers)

    Antec Sonata II and P180 coming soon

    By guesstimate, I was looking for a general idea, not an actual release date I was going to demand Antec meet. Lightn' up. :)

    Will a Zalman 7000-CU fit on the DFI boards?

    Great! :D Did you use the back plate sent with the unit? What slots do you have your Ram in? I hear 2 & 4 are best.

    DFI Ultra-D and enermax 20 pin PSU

    Yeah; the general consensys is that if you are using more than a 6600, or overclocking you really need to use a 24 pin for the extra juice. I'll be holding off on my OC adventures until I get my new case and PS.

    dfi ultra-d limitations

    Luckily my laser printer has a parallel and USB connection, so I'm good to go. Ultra-D should be here today. :D

    DFI Ultra-D and enermax 20 pin PSU

    I'm going to use my Enermax 430w unit 20 pin straight in without the adapter. I'm going ot be using a 6600 GT, so 20A on the 12v rail should be ok. (hopefully) I'm waiting for the Antec 500w Phantom and P-180 case to upgrade.

    Will a Zalman 7000-CU fit on the DFI boards?

    I'm also looking to put a 7000 on my Ultra-D. Hopefully someone who has a working setup will post here.

    Antec Sonata II and P180 coming soon

    Hi AntecCSR; Really looking forward to the new P-180. :) Slightly OT, but do you have any guesstimate of when the 500w Phantom will be out? Thanks.

    nForce 4 Brand Dilemma

    This will be my first DFI (Ultra-D), but I have heard really good things about their quality control, and they are really designed for the enthusiast crowd. Another plus; they use only Japanese capacitors, so hopefully no blown up cap problems.

    Has anybody orded the DFI UT NF4 Ultra-DR from newegg?

    I saw in another post somewhere that the person who received his Ultra-D didn't have the connector with it, and DFI will not supply them.

    Antec Sonata II and P180 coming soon

    "Official" DFI nF4 Ultra-D / SLI-DR Thread

    hehe; Same here, but a 3500+. Haven't gotten a heat sink yet. Was looking at the 7000, but saw a theread where it may interfer with the video card because of the central socket placement. I'll be very interested to see if the 7700 will actuall fit on this.

    Hi 1457; Same here. Getting ready to build. Same processor. Probably gonna go with: - DFI Ultra MoBo. - Western digital 10k SATA Raptor. - Leadtek 6600GT. - Power supply will probably be a Seasonic or the new Antec Phantom (if it comes out soon), to go with the new Antec P180 case (again...
