Will the rebate be through outpost, or through Antec? Do you have anymore details?

Yes It will be fine. I have about the same amount of drives/cards hooked you and it's fine.

Try to just have the CDRW on 1 IDE channel and see if that helps. Is your IDE channel sharing an IRQ?
 
offically the answer is no. The powersupply in this unit is recommended as follows
Antec PP-303X 300 W 150 W ATX View
Athlon 900
Athlon 850
Athlon 800
Athlon 750
Athlon 700
Athlon 650
Athlon 600
as taken from amds web site
 
I use the 303x for:

Antec 1030 Case
3 Case Fans
1 GHZ TBIRD o/c to 1.34GHZ
MSI Raid TURBO
Philips 8X CDR
Lite-on 32X CDR
16x Toshiba DVD
2 HD's in Raid 0
Geforce 3/ SB live/ 3Com NIC

Never had a single problem since last year. The Power supply is pretty good.
 
Actually there are two different power supplies for this case. I have the SX-830 and mine has the PP303XP power supply which is P4 COMPLIANT.

So it depends on what you get and who you believe I guess. 🙂

Sorry friend that's not official.
If you look closer you'll see the PS in this case is the 303XP model which has a combined power of 180watts on the 3/5 rails. Antec upgraded the PS in this case a few months back.

The one your quoting above is the OLD 303X model that ONLY had 150watt combined power on the 3/5 rails.

I have (2) of the 830 cases with this new PS and it runs my fully loaded 1.2Athlon just fine.

 
Absoutely fabulous case!! Strong, good looking and very easy to work in. I paid about $20.00 more for it a few months ago. It has the P4 connector in it as well.

No problems with my setup--runs rock solid for days and days (until I F with it 🙂):

1 - 1.4 Ghz AMD T-Bird
1 - ECS K7S5A Motherboard
1 - 24X10x40 CDRW Liteon
1 - 16x DVD Liteon
1 - 3.5 Floppy Sony
2 - 40Gb 7200 RPM Maxtors in RAID 0
1 - Maxtor RAID Card
1 - 20Gb 7200 RPM Maxtor
2 - Case fans
1 - TV Card
1 - Radeon 7500(?) 64Mb ATI
2 - 256Mb DDR DIMM
1 - Acoustic Edge audio card Philips
 
I have old 303X with
XP 1800+
1 G400max AGP vid card
1 raninbow runnuer PCI
1 cheap PCI vid card
1 SCSI adapter card
1 sound card
1 NIC
3 IDE hard drive
2 SCSI hard drive
1 CDR
1 CD
4 80mm panaflo fans

I had this setup for more than a year except P3-800 -> XP1800+
Not a single problem with it.
