hi

i am hesitant since 2 weeks about the futur case.

Should i buy the TT Armor and P180 ? i am unable to see this cases with my own eye, my computer store need to place a order if i want buy.

Armor advantage :
it is the best case from TT xbitlabs review TT case (30 pages!)
btx rdy
total fan mount : 4 (2x120mm) and (2x90mm)
space for Water cooling


P180 advantage :
silver editors choice (anandtech) Anandtech review case P180
total fan mount : 5 (4x120mm) and (1x90mm)
Dual USB 2.0, IEEE 1394 Firewire, Audio & Speaker ports are located in the top faceplate

Another honorable candidate :
Silverstone TJ06
Lian-li pc65B

Q: Which of this cases should i buy ? i want a case that offer the best air cooling solution (dissipating flow) as posible, because i want OC a little.

if any P180 or Armor owner, please share your experience with your case.

Thank you very much

sorry for my poor english, it's not my mother tongue language.

OMGHI2U!!!

Those are all excelent cases. But I would substitute the Coolmaster Stacker for the Armor. Higher quality case. Those all have excelent cooling etc. so I would pick whichever you think looks the best.

qft.... never used the armor case, but have used a few of the Tt products. and yes, they are mediocre at best. ok, i guess that makes me a Tt hater, too 😛

 
My replacement Antec P180 from PC Nation arrived on Wednesday afternoon. The first Antec P180 was damaged during shipping.

Thus far, I am happy with the Antec P180, it replaced a Lian Li PC61. The noise level and temperatures were reduced.

Edit #1: The distributor for PC Nation picked up on the FedEx (2 Day) charges to ship the damaged Antec P180 back. Needless to say, I was happy with how PC Nation handled the incident.
 
GI Ho I`m sure you will like the P180....

As soon as I decide what processor to get along with the mobo....I will also be getting the P180.....unless something else catches my eye....
For my AMD build!!

Ignore the Tt haters. I agree that in large, their products are below the standard expected by Anandtech users but they have some notable exceptions.

The Armour case looks a worthy contender in this match up.

P180 Vs. Armour.... Id never buy either because they are too expensive for my needs but Id choose the P180. The cooling setup seems more flexible and Id not use the spaces offered by the Armour.

Its your decision at the end of the day. I dont think you'd be disappointed with either case unless your PSU cable doesnt reach 😛
 
i would like to thank all who have to take part in my topic. Friday, i ordered a P180. It was a favourite choice, though i appreciate the good side of the case TT armour. The price ( -20 $ CND ) and multimedia ports located in the top faceplate have played a big factor in my selection. Also, i am encouraging with the 17 votes on 26 in favour for P180.

i just hope that the door of the P180 will tick me off with the time.

Thank you all, i read all your precious comment,

king regards,

I would have said if I wasn't too late: TT Armor or Stacker if you need the drive space, P180 if you need quiet.

. The P180 needs a PSU with long wires. You've been warned!
