New Antec cases

[Slickone]

Antec now has their Performance Plus series cases. They have new power supplies with temperature sensing fans, front mounted USB ports and firewire port, and though the front page shows a side 80mm fan in the 8xx series, the spec sheet doesnt list it, nor does it show a black version (maybe it's coming). The 10xx series does offer black, and the side fan, though if your a DIY window mod person, you'll be cutting it out anyway.

Anyone know who makes their power supplies now?
Do Sunon still make the fans that come in the cases?

I recently took delievery of the Antec SX1040 w/400w p.s. It comes with 2 each 80mm smart fans (temp controlled) mounted in the back. I ordered 2 additional 80mm Antec smart fans for the front. This is a sturdy and beautiful case. The best feature is the quick disconnect cages for the hard drives / disk drives. A flip of the switch and they are removed. This is nice if you want to tinker with the motherboard.

I wanted the SX1240 but it was too tall for my computer desk.

I have 2 of the PLUS 880 cases. The case fans do not appear to be like the new Sunon 80mm's.
