Ok by me as mine has already arrived.

However, most people don't like paying extra for a bundled CPU. Plus the extra cost for shipping due to the extra weight. Plus the extra work to remove it so it can be replaced with the PSU they want.

Now, when everyone agrees that the only PSU they want is a specific Antec PSU then bundling would be a good idea. For example, the Antec Phantom 500 will be used in my case.

I think you meant PSU?

Lian Li's got cheap, clean cases with good workmanship.
The look might not appeal to some
But well with a bit of modding it can do well.

It's the value and quality which make them so popular

I don't really understand the fan at the back/top of the case. You already have 1 120mm pulling air out of that part of the case, it seems redundant. Also, with that psu location, won't 2 fan psu's be sort choked on the bottom fan?

$80 is cheap for a case. Try spending $200 on a high quality Coolermaster or Silverstone

I ordered the P180 through my school's computer store around the last week of May. I think they use Ingram Micro as their distributor, and I've got it sitting next to me . Now I just need an Antec 550w PSU, X2 4400+, Asus A8N-SLI, and 6800GT and I'm all set... too bad I can't afford the rest of the parts until next month .

It comes with 3 tricool fans. 2 of them are slimmer (25.4mm) and they are the top exhaust and rear exhaust. The 3rd one is a fatter (38mm) fan that goes between the psu and hard drives in the bottom of the case.

Nice case, but I might venture to say that Antec jacked the design of the Lian-Li v1100 series.
Everything cool about the P180 (inverted mobo, thermal partitioning, etc.) is straight out of the Lian-Li. Make no mistake, the p180 is like a porsche... but the Lian-Li is the original Ferrari. (costs more, but better).

I think the P180 is still sweet. But only a cheaper alternative to a better case.

Just my opinion, please don't throw rocks at my head.

i think its safe to say that everybody is ripping the thermal zones off of apple, now settle down, and lets stop caring about where the idea came froml. lets argue if they've improved it or not, thats when it starts mattering

have an order to techonweb as well with no eta, but the 40+ i saved is worth it to me, as my current case will live

I just discovered the p180. I was set to spend $200+ on the Lian Li v1000, but I like this one a little better, and it's cheaper. I wish Antec made a black version though,but I did see that there will be a Silent PC Review edition of the p180 in black.
