Hmmm what you reckon?

Please give your personal choice

TJ05.

The Antec is nice, but quite plasticy and not an ideal mod candidate.

I was in the same postion as you just awhile ago....I was pretty sold on the antec but after the review and what the people here said I am thinking of a silverstone.

 

[mrapoc]

im not very good at modding or making things lol so im not going to be even attempting to mod (ruin) my case so if modding wasnt needed would you still say the silverstone is better in terms of cooling/features/usability and everything else lol?

Antec P180 . Great features, high quality, and awesome cooling. Has 5x 120MM adjustable speed fans iirc.

 

[mrapoc]

yes nick is talking sense (imo after reading features) just wondering why you guys voted for silverstone over the p180

 

[FarFarAway]

I use the Antec P180b every dayon my spare PC. Yes cooling is pretty good but the case is quite hard to use and wiring sucks ass. Also modular PSU's won't fit

They are both great cases, but the TJ05 has ooodles more room, its solid (plastic not included) and IMO it looks more stylish.

The P180 is the quieter option of the two, but in terms of real world cooling performance i very much doubt you'll see much difference between the two.

 

[NickS]

Haha yeah, thats the nice thing about higher quality cases, no plastic .

@ kemp, yeah the wiring sucks but you never see it, no window!

yes, but it can also be a hassle working with components with wires in your face

Think thats bad? Try navigating around 1/2" ID tubing in a midtower Lian Li, lmao.

Ha, my friend did that (V1000). But try routing inside a X-QPack. Also, we had to rip open the case, unplug everything, take out a GPU (x1900xtx monster no less), install a GPU block that was already connected to the loop, plug everything back in, and shove the case back together. Was a hell of a time

I put in my vote for the Silverstone, I'm quite partial to their uber sexy designs. :yumyum:

 

[mrapoc]

for that reason im getting a black tj05 with a window as i need to get a cold cathode for uber sexyness
