I've got no pc for atleast another 6-7 weeks, but I'll hook up when i'm back on.
 
I really with I had of waited a few more months before upgrading my case.

I had an Antec 900, and after seeing pics of the 1200, I was dead set on it. But then they decided to hold it back. So in February I went ahead and got the Antec P190. Don;t get me wrong, it's a great case, but the 1200 seems to have everything I wanted in a new case (after having the 900).

Ah well.

OCuk are just RMA'ing my lian li case after it turned up with no USB sockets :rolleyes: was really looking forward to a small bit of building this weekend as well :( actually a little gutted tbh, but such is life. Just hope the RMA gets turned around by next weekend.

emailed lian li and they apologised but it doesn't instantly solve the problem. oh well looks like i'll be spending some quality time with the family.:p
 
Here's a pic I dug out taken just after fitting the components, it looks slightly different now, enjoy :)



...oh and before someone else says it, yes I know, IDE is poor.

You're not having much luck with cases M8, Omega and now a Lian Li case sent back, I hope its 3rd time lucky for you...:)

Yeah its not great, the thing is i've always been extremely lucky with components not going pop so I guess this is catch up. Anyway OCUK seem to be dealing with it very efficiently and arranged for it to be picked up as soon as I called. I'll keep you posted on their turn around time, I'd love it to be sorted by the next weekend

did you buy those black sata cables? or steal..... or get them with something?

My excuse is that the IDE cable doesn't restrict airflow, it just looks old skool. I will sort it out with SATA when I need a bluray drive, but till then if it ain't broke don't fix it :D

I think the SATA cables came with some motherboard and at the time with SATA a 'new' thing I swiftly borrowed them.

It only just reaches so as above I will survive like it is :)
 
I also have a 1200. Got it a couple of weeks ago and I love it. Temps are awesome even with all fans on low. No pictures though because my cable management is enough to make small children cry. :(

Anyone know if the Antec 1200 could accomodate a triple radiator internally, similar to the HAF 932?
