P182!

Outnumbered though. I seriously can't fault it and my temps are fine. Lot of people find it ugly though so personal taste i suppose!

(also i'm biased cause i've never seena lian li case i'd like on my desk ;))
 
I've had the P180 (almost the same as the 182) for years and I love it.
I'm only swapping it for a Lian Li (V2010) due to the space I would like for the water cooling.
 
While V1000 Plus has active exhaust on upper part motherboard chamber's airflow is now complex and in case of lot of 5.25" devices they don't have any airflow because of that rear end's airflow loop. Then non soft plastic HDD mounting and accessing intake air filter needs opening both sides of case.

So from those two my choise would be P182.

...or more precisely omitting couple tiny purchases of in the end useless stuff (ones which just end up filling lockers after opening packet) and getting Lian Li A70 for enough space for really big pile of components and for ability to add cooling for highest end components if necessary.
 
Thanks all still not sure bin reading a lot of reviews and the V1000 + sort in the lead.

But i can get a cheap p180 silver for like half the price of the V1000 not sure what version the p180 is so may not have room behind the motherboard tray to make cables look nice.


Cheers.
