Why not get it in Aluminum Here for $89. $18 to ship, $25 more for those who like Windows. Also have 4 more colors.

The one from Buyxtremegear.com probably doesn't have an Antec Power supply though.

Here is a good reason. Poor reseller ratings. I don't trust companies with yahoo stores or with low ratings.

OK.....


I have ordered over a dozen case from them and have had no problems.....just my $.02

In fact, I have had problems with TCWO lately. They've sat on 3 of my orders for 2-3 days before shipping.

Does anyone know if this is the good ole' Antec dual fan P/S?

That's cool. It's good to know then. I have been burned so many times that I only use highly rated companies like tcwo, Mwave, and Newegg.

All there cases seem to ship with Turbo Link 420W PS's. Runing 2 with XP1600's at XP1900 speed no problem. One is getting water-cooled next week

Newegg also has those Chieftech Aluminums with window for $129 with a PS. Grabbed a Refurb Black for $110 on Thursday.

It sounds convincing to me, would you say what are the 3.3, 5, and +12V max outputs on Turbolink 420W?

I have a Chieftec case like that with the same 420W PS

my voltages on a P4 1.6 @ 2.133:

3.27
5.107
12.032

max current on the nameplate:

3.3 --> 28A
5 --> 40A
12 --> 18A

On the non-antec alluminum cases with 420watt... very tempting... how quiet is the power supply?? I need a new one and really like this case. Is there any advantage over the Antec standard by going alluminum other than the weight? I think the green case could look interesting... though I might have to rename my system Kermit

My buddy owns the case with the 420 watt powersupply. Its pretty loud compared to my true power 430 watt antec ps. The top of the powersupply gets pretty warm. But it pushes a lot of air though.

 

[SteveSimpson]

Is the power supply ok for AMD systems?

 

[stevejst]

Tigerbait, thanks. Look nice to me. I would like to know if anybody overclocked Athlon XP with this power supply, is it good for that?
Newbiepcuser, are you saying that your Antec doesn't get hot?

its $129 now!

still waiting for those chieftec alum to come down in price at newegg...
