P190 P190 P190 P190

ouch, $480 shipped. does come with a 1200w PSU, which is worth probably $200-250. That leaves $230-$280 for the case itself...

Yeah, I think Antec puts PSUs in most of their new products now....Sonata III, P190. Only the 900 and P180/182 are still PSU-less.
 
Only interesting if they offer it w/o PSU. Still don't like the extra useless fan up top, or the giant hole for noise to get out on the side.

Well that sucks. What about the people who already have a PSU to use. I'm sure that those two PSUs are a good chunk of the price of that case. Stupid move on Antec's part, wonder how many possible P190 buyers won't buy because of the price because of those PSUs there.
 
The major selling point of that case (for me) was/is that it's several inches deeper (front to back) than the 180 - making it easier to manage wires and such. Although the extra fans are a nice addition. I could do without the second psu. Hopefully they'll sell it with no psus at some point.
 
Or you could buy the case and then sell the PSUs...but always at a loss. I do agree with it being a stupid move by Antec though.
 
They should have increased the dimensions of the P182 a bit (depth and maybe width an inch). I'm happy with mine and everything fits, but more room would be nice. This is useless, because who really wants Antec PSUs these days?
 
internal 3.5 bays are facing the wrong way for me. I hate trying to work on drives facing like that which is why I switched to cases with bays that run across the width of case. Makes it so much easier to work on things. That case is really cramped. I'll stick with my xclio windtunnel and enermax galaxy 850ps.
 
A coolermaster stacker stc-t01 is 39 pounds without PSUs... That may be with the original Device Module, with a new version it would be a few pounds lighter.

.bh.
 
some crappy thermaltake steel case's weigh a ton.. dunno exact weight.

agreed, i'm only going to buy the 182 and not this bc i dont need a PSU
