Available in the US and Europe after October 13, 2003 Antec P160 Info

[mechwarrior]

A week ago I saw a message here concerning this new case from Antec, but there wasn't much info on it. Today I noticed Antec now has more info on this new case.

Antec P160

"Made from recycled fighter jets"

"Available in the US and Europe after October 13, 2003"

Looks like what I've been looking for.

nice....been curious when they would become avail...looks like i found my next case

I really like it. This is what I currently have and I like it, but a quieter, lighter, kinder, gentler case would be ideal. 15lbs compared to my 34lb-er.

Wonder how much it will go for. My 835 included the 350w psu, so that'll be extra with this one.

What are those shiny things on the front faced vertically? There are three of them.

If you mean the vertical slots toward the bottom, the product flyer says they're:

"Chrome front vents for stylish ventalation. Blue front accent lights add dazzle in the dark"


Who writes this stuff?

It looks like the stealth optical-drive covers have translucent windows to allow the drives' LEDs to be visible. Smart!

how big is this thing? Full tower? That's pretty big for the casual home user, no?... I am used to small cases but this case looks sweet!

specs are here. looks like the exact same size as my sx835 (as well as many other antecs), which fits perfect under my desk. since the deminsions are close to identical, i can vouch that the size is ideal to work with-- roomy for big hands to work inside, holds lotsa drives, yet easy to keep neat and retain good airflow.
