opinions on the Antec P160

TheBaron

so i've been informed that my case is inadequately cooling my totally sweet 2.8c, and i've decided to buy a new one.

i was wondering what you guys thought of this one

Specifications:
Case Type: Mid-Tower Case
Color: Silver
Material: 1.2mm anodized aluminum
Drive Bays: 5.25" x 4/0, 3.5" x 2/4 (external/internal)
Expansion Slots: 7
Front Ports: 2xUSB2.0, Audio, IEEE1394
Power Supply: N/A
Cooling System: 1 x 120mm
Motherboard Compatibility:up to Standard ATX
Dimensions: 20" (H) x 8.1" (W) x 19.7" (D)
Special Features: Built-in washable air filter

it says 1 x 120mm, theres really a second slot for a front mount 120mm, so you'd have one intake and one exhaust. i was thinking some 100cfm sunons on a fan controller. anyway this case has some really nice features like A) sidemount harddrives and a bunch of easy access HD slots. any thoughts?

I've not yet used one, but it seeems worth a shot...

Fugly front bazel but everything else looks nice.

keep in mind it also has led temp readouts at the top of the front bezel

i guess what im really wondering is - do you think 2 120mm sunons in this case'll do a better job than the 2 80mm in and 1 60mm out i have now? if so, you think this'll fix my airflow problems?

make it out of a briefcase


u may need a bigger case, like an antec\chieftec so u have the room to stuff things away in with plenty of room, also would a fan on the top of the case help?? hmm

well i like a lot of the odd features that case has, like the built in temp sensor, the side mount hd racks etc. its definitely big enough (cause my current case fits everything with ease: Lian-Li PC-7B) but my case temp is very high, and i figured something with a lot more airflow (i.e. 2 120mm's) would be a step in the right direction
