Antec Solo case $40 shipped AR

[Zap]

EDIT: Can't use both promo code and do a combo deal at the same time. I just tried it. 🙁 At $55 shipped after two rebates and a combo plus a coupon, I would have bought thie case with the NeoHE just for the heck of it. At $10 more, gotta think about it, LOL.

Antec Solo Black/Silver Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case
$79.99
-$30 rebate (expires 2/14/08)
free shipping
-$10 promo code EMCABCKCA (expires 2/4/08)
=$40 AR AC FS

For an added bonus, get the combo deal (click on view all combos)
Antec True Power Trio TP3-650 ATX12V 650W Power Supply with Three 12V Rails
$109.99 (IMO not worth this price)
-$40 rebate (expires 2/3/08)
free shipping
-$20 combo discount (expires unknown)
=$50

JonnyGURU gave the PSU a 7.5/10
So, a worthy $50 PSU but a mediocre $110 PSU.

Also, another decent bonus deal:
Antec NeoPower NeoHE 380 ATX12V 380W Power Supply
This is a $15 modular Seasonic PSU!
$69.99
-$40 rebate (expires 1/31/08)
free shipping
-$15 combo discount (expires unknown)
=$15

I couldn't find reviews on the 380W in particular, but have found reviews on the 500W saying it was decent, and reviews of a similar 300W "SU" model. Additionally this is based on the Seasonic SS series.

The Antec Solo case is one of my favorites (that's why I already own three of them) and has provisions for building an extremely quiet and well-ventilated system.

think I'm going to send back my Aerocool i-Curve and pick this up.
I was very unimpressed with the Aerocool, but I know first-hand that this one is a solid and quiet case

extra hot too for the people that haven't gotten in on the earthwatts PSU deals


Edit: Just call the 'egg and got a no restock fee return with shipping paid 🙂

Ordered this nad a Gigabyte P35 mobo to finish my system

Zap, did you mean to say "This is a $15...."? That number seems a bit odd there.

Yes, it does add up funny, doesn't it? Here's how it works:

$70 PSU
-$40 rebate
-$15 combo discount (when purchased with Solo case)
=$15

However, when you do the combo discount, you will invalidate the $10 coupon code for just the case, so the case ends up being $50 instead of $40. I was this )( close to buying the combo as a "spare." Thanks Newegg for saving my wallet from further abuse.

The PSU is a Seasonic built unit with modular cables. Pretty nice, all in all. I think it can put out 27A combined on the +12v. Think of it as an EarthWatts 380W with modular cables and a less industrial finish. I think it's safe to ignore the dual rail or tri rail designations as all these PSUs are really single rail.
