New Antec PSU's, New Antec Case - P150

[michal1980]

don't know if anyone noticed, but antec is/has released a new line of Neo HE PSU that run 75-85% efficent come with modular cables, and seem to be priced under 100 bucks for a 550 unit. 3% tolerances on all lines, 3!! 12 volt indepandent lines (how?) for example the 500 watt unit can have up to 475 watts on the 12 volt lines, thats about 40 amps. WOW.
all units come with activce PFC. etc.

availbe- according to sparco/costcentral around th 18th of the month.

also not found on there site linked, but google gave me the idea to find it is this.

http://www.antec.com/us/productDetails.php?ProdID=81500#

the new p150 case comes with a 430 neohe psu, no door, seems slick. 4 hard drives, or 3 suspended.

any other info?

edit
SPCR Review

Neo He 430 review

price for case MSRP = 180 Bucks
Price For Power Supply MSPR = 110 Bucks.

So the case only costs about 70 bucks give or take,
case only would probably cost 100 dollars.
looks like a very very nice case, p180 is better but this baby looks GREAT.

however google finds the case out of stock and selling for over msrp, while the psu are pre-selling for less then msrp.
go figure, sparco, and costcentral do not lis the p150 yet. psu should be out on the 13th

Sound deadening composite side panels like the P180. Made to be quiet like the P180 I guess.

Sounds (pun not intended) like a winner to me.

It is said $179 w/ the 430W Neo HE.

That case...sucks. It's horrible. Just look at it :disgust:

I thought Antec was moving in a good direction with the P160 and P180...this is most definitely a step backwards.

With respect to aesthetics or performance design?

Silver or black would do.

Anyone know what size front fan this thing takes? 80mm or 120mm?

It's got a pair of 92mm fan mounts, along with an easy-to-remove fan filter in front of them.

The fans are stacked on top of each other, like the Antec SX1xxx, Chieftec Dragon series with their 80mm fans. It works quite well for cooling the HDD drive cages, and the lower fan can also be used to blow air directly onto the VGA heatsink area.

If I had an Apple 30" Cinema Display, I'd be all over this case. But I have a Dell 2405FPW so I prefer the P180 case.

 

[Pardus]

it has a reset button, amazing. been looking for a case-- most of these have no reset.

 

[honkee]

Man that case looks so sick, so elegant.
im an elegant guy myself so i gotta like it

 

[GTaudiophile]

Please post here ASAP if you find this in stock somewhere.

Not even available until the 19th.

Looks nice, but for $180 this case is NOT worth it.

As is typical with "MSRP" pricing, you can probably expect the "street price" of the P150 to be some amount less than it's MSRP price, especially as time goes by.

And, as noted above note that you're getting a $70+ PSU included with this case. Whether you use is, or sell it and recoup some of your initial investment is up to you.

 

[Pabster]

Too bad they include that PoS Power Supply. If they sell the P150 bare I'd be using it...

 

[rise]

whats the matter with the psu? looks pretty nice actually.

does antec have something against removeable mobo trays?

 

[bobov]

Hello, does anyone know what materials the p150 use? Aluminium or steel?
