Does anyone have to Antec P180B yet. I'd like to see some pics of this beauty.

SilentPCReivew has done half a dozen articles on the P180, had a few shots here altough there were more elsewhere on their site... <a target=_blank class=ftalternatingbar...pcreview.com/article255-page1.html</a> If that isn't enough, Newegg has their customary image gallery of it, and I recall stumbling across a reivew of the P180 in black someplace else as well...

It's a lovely looking case...

go to this link and look at the the pictures they have. I believe this is the best price on it nowadays. I don't have it personally though.

It's the same as the SPCR edition P180 with the following changes:

No VGA duct (waste of time that was)
Latest version of the door (still not perfect but alright)
No SPCR logo on the front.

They also rigged up the upper hard drive bays to take a fan. You can find reviews of the P180B through google that highlight the differences.

The upper hard drive bay always had a fan right in front of it. Did they add a fan mount to the cage itself?

The ADDITIONAL fan has one that attaches to the back of the cage. The other fan placement is still behind the cage. So you have the option of using 2 fans to cool off the same hard drive cage.

Yes, the top hard drive card can have a 80 or 120mm size fan (I forget which size) stuck on it at the inside part of the cage, thereby preventing the use of any HDDs inside the cage and instead turning it into a wind tunnel to blow cool air onto hot VGA cards, especially for an SLI or Crossfire rig.
