Antec P182 Special Edition at OcUK!

Something for the Antec fans it seems.

A revised Antec P180 with a finnish that looks very very good in the pictures.

Can't wait to see one in the flesh when OcUK get them in on Friday.

Nice looking case and if it solves the problems that the P180 had then this will be one stunning case.

Anyone seen any reviews for it yet?

But i bet two 8800gtx will fit in better...

I just looked at the price of the new P182,,,,It almost double the price of the standard P180
(£81.06 vs £150.39 :eek:

)Hope who ever buys one,,like looking at themselfs in a mirror...

Bit pricey I know but I am reserving judgement until I see one first hand.

Really hard to make any firm comments when they are not out in peoples hands yet.

Does anyone know when the normal p182 will be out?
My watercooling bits arrive this week, and I want to know whether to mod my old small case or order a p182

The official stock is shipping within the next 7 - 10 days. But apparently they have been shipping them as P180's for the last couple of weeks.

All I wanna do is run a million finger prints on it and then take a high flash camera shot/

Beat me to it. A friend of mine did that to me with my Antec Solo case. Gonna be a bitch to keep clean.

Looks nice. But I'd much prefer to have that P190 out of the two !

Skiddley · 3 Apr 2007 at 12:46

Yep, i've heard of a lot of people in the US getting p182s in p180 boxes.
Which unfortunately means for £70 more all you're really getting is the shiny panels.

P190 is huge, it takes extended atx i believe, and rumour has it that it will come with a pair of custom psus. Its really just a lengthened p182 with a slightly bigger lower section i think. Plus is has an extra top fan and a side fan, and both top fans are 140mm, so non-standard and difficult to replace which is a shame.

Personally i think i'd rather have an A10 over the P182SE, its about the same price but i think its a better case.
