Antec P183 now aviable for preorder at OCUK

what do you think of it looks wise compared to P182?

Personally i think they have made it look less smart and more ugly

+10. Sums it up really.

Apart from the bad look have they made any other changes looking at spec it all sounds the same.

I actually like the look of it, sure the design doesn't seem as smart as the superb P182 but it hardly seems a wasted effort. I wouldn't mind owning the P183 and it looks like it has great cooling in there.

I like the look, aside from those vents on the front panel.

It's this or the 182, think I'm swaying toward the 182...

The P182 was a superior looking case IMHO, seems as if Antec is run by 16 year olds judging by there latest attempts at "style", the gamer range is noted for its blue lights, Bloated amounts of fanes and mesh mangled with plastic, the new P183 looks like they took the subtle style of the 82 and cut some vent holes in it in order to give it that horrid pre modded look case companys insist on.

Not to my taste as you likely can tell

Looks exactly like a bigger version of my antec mini p180.

Again and the same with the mini p180, i would have prefered the p182 front panel style (ie no vents).

I do prefer the exhaust on the top of my mini p180 and it is very flush with the case.
