That Antec is impressive but im still waiting for the Stainless Steel P180 from way back when!!

And also that Carbon-Fiber case from Ultra!

I wonder what happened to them.

Man, that Antec makes me want to build an H20-system. Nice and big and probably expensive!

Love the pictures and the narrative!

everyone take note of that Antec case. Here is a classic example of a company taking what they learned from the modding community, and applying it to future.

Example: mobo tray is pre cut for wire management. Most of those cuts are EXACTLY in the same locations that several of first case cutters on the Nine Hundred made (and that I'll eventually make) to run cables on the backside of the mobo tray in the dead zone. Nice job Antec!

I think if someones going to pay that much for a case they probably need more substantial cooling then can be provided by a single fan rad, even a 250mm fan. If they really want to make a splash they should double the area and make it a dual 250mm rad.

That 1200 looks REALLY similiar to the 900 I used for a build

the holes in the top fan grate are visible, and that is the concern I expressed in other posts.

1200w power supplies...DAMN this is getting nuts. I have an E6600, 2gb ram, 2 - 200gb sataII drives, a 250gb ide drive, 7600GT video card, 19" Samsung 930B LCD monitor, and I think some of the netowrking stuff, printer, scanner, and I think my cordless phone plugged ionto my UPS and it is only using 210watts!

Maybe the 4 video cards would push it farther? quad core chips? but DAMN - 1200 watts, and yesterday 2000watts. My microwave doesnt have that much power

Have fun in China!!

If you happen to see free sample tables

I like the new case, wondering where this will fall in on the price range of things with out the rad.
