How is the noise on these? I have a lian-li pc60 and it is like a vacuum cleaner. I was thinking of maybe going with the p183 but if I could get similar results from a 300 after switching out the fans that would be nice. Smaller the case the better imo as well...

The move to slower 120mm fans makes a pretty huge difference, and although I believe the p183 will be better, I doubt it'll be a very noticeable improvement. Plus, the p183 is huge.

No tax on amazon purchases either.

The BB deal is great if you dont want to wait thats for sure. It is a good case for the money whether you choose Amazon or BB.

I got a couple of the newegg free shipped $20 cases recently but the Antec case is far superior. The $20 case would be the mother-in-law case I guess....... ;)

I have one with 4 Scythe S-Flex D's and a Thermalright X-Silent 140mm in there. Cools really well and the noise is not bad. With sound from games I can't hear the case fans.

in for one. My two antec 900's can now stay safely at home and I can use this one at work and appear "professional". :)
