Antec P182 Gun Metal Black 0.8mm cold rolled steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case
Antec P182 Gun Metal Black 0.8mm cold rolled steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case

Pros: This case is rock solid. The cable management is like no other case I've owned. The edges of the steel where cables are ran are not sharp. You can completely terminate air from going up into the top bay. It really isn't that heavy, weighing only 35 lbs. The rubber grommets are nice! every hard drive you put in this case will take full advantage of this. The ease of cleaning the air filters will be nice, seeing as the door that conceals them is push activated. It really is quiet! Almost every spot where a drive can touch the case, Antec has implemented either plastic or rubber to reduce the amount of noise.

Cons: The only con I see is the locking mechanism on the front door. It locks closer to the bottom half of the door, so when locked you can still pry the top open enough to turn the computer on/off or reset it. I would have liked to have seen the lock in the middle or have some type of bar like a filing cabinet does, that locks it into place the whole length of the door, but beggars cannot be choosers

Overall Review: After reading all of the reviews here on newegg, and then actually getting the case, I am very pleased with this purchase. A lot of reviews complain about the fan that is in the bottom bay. I took this out before I even tried to install my PSU. I relocated it to the middle fan bay, and all is well and good. If you have a PSU that has two(2) fans, there really is no need for this bottom fan in the case anyways. I forgot to add that the "OCZ GameXStream OCZ700GXSSLI ATX12V 700W Power Supply" does have long enough leads to support the "EVGA 122-CK-NF68-A1 LGA" in this case using Antec's cable management techniques.

Very Reliable Mouse!

Pros: Build quality is great, There is a blue LED on the top palm area of the mouse that fades in and out that is cool looking. Razer releases firmware updates for their mice! Accessories are available to add custom weights and plastic. Teflon feet last longer.

Cons: N/A

Overall Review: I bought this mouse because I had been using an el cheapo mouse to play games for the last 6 years. This mouse is like a pinto compared to a c500 series. Its amazing.

Awesome Keyboard !

Pros: This keyboard is great for playing in the dark. It's also great for a wide variety of games with the ability to assign up to 50+ keys. USB hub is alright as well.

Cons: N/A

Overall Review: I thought about getting the g15, but my keyboard retracts under my desk, so the LCD was useless in my case.

Pros: Fast Speed, SATA, LITE-ON brand

Cons: Not faster, but the fastest out currently.

Overall Review: I have had many Lite-on branded drives over the years. They will read anything. and if you search the web, you can find updated firmware.

Great PSU

Pros: Long cables! enough power connections to have a full tower of devices. Very Quiet!

Cons: Not modular, but not a big deal.

Overall Review: I have this coupled with an Antec p182 case, and the leads are long enough to support most motherboards. In that case, it makes this PSU even quieter.
