Question 1

Does the P100 have a power LED and a HDD activity LED?

Thanks for any help

Accepted Answer

Yes, it has a blue power LED on the right by the front USB ports and a HDD activity LED (also blue) on the right by the power button.

Question 2

Did anyone else have an issue getting all 4 USB ports to work in front?  I can only get the two black ones to work, not the two blue ones.  Having the 4 ports was a big reason I chose this case.

Accepted Answer

I had no issues getting all four working. They are two separate connections to the motherboard. The black ones are USB2.0 and the blue are USB 3.0. Check out page 18 of the case's manual for more info on the different connectors. Your motherboard will need to support USB 3 and some you will have to enter the BIOS to enable it.

Question 3

how much room is behind the motherboard tray for cable routeing?

Accepted Answer

I bought the case last Oct, from what I remember there's about one  half inch of room for cables. I have six hard drives, two opticial drives and all the cables fit. I love the case and the way the cables are hidden.

Question 4

Hey, do you think a Corsair H100i would fit in this case? thx ;)

Accepted Answer

Yes, I think so. It has 2 adjacent bays on top which can receive either 120mm or 140mm radiator + fans.

In other words it was designed to take a cooler like the Corsair. I don't know about that specific model, but if it has standard 120-140 mm mounts it should work fine.

Question 5

How sturdy is the door? I've never had an Antec case where the door didn't break, it might take a week, it might take a year, but they always break.

Accepted Answer

Hi,
 I would not order anything from Antec. They do not stand behind their product. I received this case back in early December and after installing my components proceeded to remove the protective plastic on the door. It took half the paint off with it. After contacting Antec several times and being told a new door was on the way. I'm still waiting.  They never sent the door and my ticket was close. I've been promised  a new door several times but have never received it. Even though it' been re ordered!
So give some one else your business . These guys do not deserve it.

Question 6

Is the door reversible?

Accepted Answer

No.  The front plastic piece that attaches to the case is not symmetric side-to-side, there are slots for the hinge on one side and standoffs for stopping the door on the other.  And you can't turn it over to reverse it because it also isn't symmetric top-to-bottom because the front ports are molded into the same piece.

Question 7

Is the filter on top of the case supposed to come off if I install fans?

Accepted Answer

The grille on top of the case is not a filter. That is for radiator(s) and associated fans if you use a water cooling system.

They are normally covered inside by plastic plates. But you can remove the plates and install 120-140mm water-cooling radiators with fans there. Since they are exhausts, not intakes, there is no filter there.

There is a large removable/washable filter behind the front panel, where the main intake fans go. There is also a removable filter on the bottom where the power supply fan is.

Question 8

Is the Front Door Color Black, or charcoal?, in the pictures on line it looks more charcoal then black. Thanks for any help!

Accepted Answer

The door's front panel has a brushed metallic charcoal finish -- kinda like a stainless steel appliance panel, but darker.  The rest of the door is black.

Question 9

will this case be able to fit a corsair h100i?

Accepted Answer

The case should be able to support it. The cooler would mount at the top of the case.

Question 10

Does it come with the two optional fans?

Accepted Answer

I don't understand the moan thing, but Yes mine did. They are pretty quiet with hi/low switch, mb plug and psu adapters if you don't have mb plugs left. I use them.
