Antec FS710 (SX1030) Case $69; USB 2.0 Card $10 At SoCal Fry's

[fornax]

Fry's have in their Friday flier a no-name USB 2.0 card for $10. I also saw in the store Antec FS710 (the successor to SX1030) for $69. It looks exactly like the SX1030, but has 300W PSU. Not a bad deal if you're looking for a good case.

Where? How come I don't see that in my SoCal Fry's ad?

 

[TechDreamer]

I didn't see the card either. I guess the case is unadvertised.

 

[TechDreamer]

Where can I find info on this new case? Antec's website knows nothing about it.

 

[RalfHutter]

It's not an Antec branded case, it's an Enermax branded case. These are all made by Chenming and sold as Antec, Enermax and Chieftec cases. This particular case (the FS710) comes with a 300 watt Enermax PSU. This case sells for $99 at Newegg, so $69+tax+no shipping is a good deal.

 

[TechDreamer]

Yeah I eventually figured out it was an Enermax case. They have it at outpost for $89.
I think the power supply is different than the one at Newegg. Outpost states it as "Power supply - PSII / Mini RPM SIZE". What the heck is that? Does anyone know anything about this power supply? The one at Newegg also says 330 Watt, but the one at Outpost says 300 Watt.

The card is advertised in the Friday flier. The case is not, I saw it in the store though. The case had a sign "Antec", that's why I posted it as an Antec case, but I too figured out later that it's an Enermax case. But it looks exactly lik the SX1030, both inside and out.

Fry's also have in today's flier an Antec SX830 for $69, which is also very good deal.

I just picked up one of these cases today, although I haven't opened it yet cuz I'm at work. This was at the Fountain Valley Fry's. They have maybe 4 left of those Enermax 710's... had a red sign saying it was clearanced, from 99 to 69. They also had a huge pile of the Antec 1030's near by, but those were at 89, but other than price, they were identical. Not sure about the 300W power supply that comes with the FS-710. I'll have to look it up when I get home.

Decent price with no shipping charges, so I can finally upgrade my RAID server into something that runs much cooler.

hmmm...i am a bit confused....went to my local Fry's(City of Industry) today...saw the case, but it was marked $89....and didn't see the USB card at all....can anyone help me with that....a sku number or part number would really help.....Thanks...........

The PLU for the USB card is 3291161. I have no idea about the case. Make sure you look for the FX710 case, not the SX1030. The latter is still $89.

San Diego Fry's has the SX1030 for $79, saw it in today's add. 60GB IBM for 84 bucks FYI.

I have this Enermax FS710, it's exactly like the Antec 1030 except they used an Enermax 300 PS. I just swap the Enermax PS with an Antec 350 PS. The Enermax PS seems to be a good PS, it hasn't gone out on my other computer and it has a lot more holes for the air to flow through.

I not sure of the model #, but in Monday's Fry's add (5/14) there was an Antec case w/300Wps for $49 (in DFW). 3 X 5 1/4, 1 X 3.5, 2 X 3.5 internal.

 

[akahai]

Thanks....really appreciated you guys' help.....I will go check it out again today.....tried to asked the sells there yesterday....they know nothing..........anyway.....I double check the case.....it's $89 at my local Fry's....though I asked the manger if all sales are the same for the LA area, and he said yes....but I guess he was wrong.......once again...THANKS....

Model KS-282+PP303X same at outpost.
I was hoping it was going to be an SX1030. I'm still trying to find a good deal on a blue chieftec.
