Computer cases come in all shapes and sizes. I've used a number of them with handles, lights and crazy things that you would expect on a car. However, the distracting lights, poor build quality and strange details were just too much for me. Antec decided it was time for me to grow up and get a P150. The P150 is a midtower designed for efficiency and silent operation. It comes wit...
I got this case for an HTPC micro-ATX build, and to that end, it's nearly perfect. The case is exceptionally quiet; the two included fans at high speed, the PSU, and a stock Athlon X2 fan together barely whirr, and despite this, case temperatures stay only a couple degrees C about ambient. The cable management is also excellent. Ties are included that make it possible to route all cables ar...
Antec, makers of everything from computer cases to powersupplies, has hit a goldmine with the Quadro 850 Watt. Coming in at a standard ATX form factor, this power supply fits nicely in any case, though I recommend a larger case due to heat that is produced. This whisper quite power supply is on 24/7/365 in my room, so keeping noise minimal with this machine was almost as paramount as gaming qua...

"Antec Cyclone Blower PCI Slot Fan"
When I first started using my HP Pavilion a1440n in 2006, I did not know much about keeping a computer's temperatures down. I knew that it was important to reduce heat to internal components, so that longevity could be increased. How to achieve this was not within my knowledge. I searched the Internet for different solutions. Some forums suggested water cooling, which seemed advanced an...
I researched a lot before buying this case, and it is very awesome! I love the idea of seperate areas for the PSU and mainboard. Overall I'd say it was well built, however theres a couple things which keep me from rating it well, however I'd like to point out that this will blow away any and all of the "stylized" "cool" cases for build quality, its all aluminum ...
If you are looking for a high quality computer case, the Antec 900 is the way to go. I have worked with many computer cases over the years, but the Antec 900 is one that outstands among most. The case has the ability to move a massive amount of air, keeping temperatures nice and cool. I especially like the fact that even though the fans are doing their job, the noise factor is...
This case has been nothing but fantastic. When one first looks at it, they fall in love with the silver and black chassis. I have had a lot of cases before and some of them were not sturdy at all. However, EVERY Antec Case that I have owned, 3, have been ROCK SOLID. I actually used to use one of my old Antec cases as a stool. Anyway, the best feature of this case is the motherboard/PSU layout. ...

"Antec NotebookCooler"
I really like this notebook cooler in the fact that it really works. It keeps my laptop up to five degrees celcius cooler than it would without it. It has a little compartment to store away the power cord when you don't need it making it very easy to travel around with it. The power usb cord is also pretty convenient in that it doubles as another usb port so that it doesn't occupy a usb...
Ah, the Antec P182 PC case. The predecessor to this model was the P180. This case was specifically made to include a lot of case fans and make it as quiet as possible, which I can tell because you won't be able to pick this up without pulling something(ok, maybe an exaggeration) because this thing is pretty darn heavy! It comes with three fans included with the case already if I remember co...
This case is the king when it comes to air cooling. I work in the computer industry and build computers with this case all the time. This is one of our most popular cases. We retail it for 109$. On new egg this case goes for 119 at the moment. This case has a lot of hype surrounding it and I am pleased to announce that it is all that is is hyped up to be. I am sorry that I didnt ...
If you're like me, a computer case is less about looks, and more about usefulness!! Sure, some cases out there look pretty and have some cool eyecandy, but they don't move air around inside very well. This, of course, translates to unecessarily high temperatures inside the case, shortening the life of your components, and increasing their chances for failure. The Antec ...

"A Cool Notebook Cooler"
Last summer I bought a Dell laptop from Dell, over the phone. I asked a lot of questions, and the clerk asked me a lot of questions about what I needed, but the subject of a cooler never came up. I learned from reviews here that laptops and notebooks tend to overheat, and you should use them with a cooler. Silly me, I thought since it was a laptop, I could just put it on my lap and work. ...
