Good deal, I have been looking for one of these. Cheap shipping.

I was hoping buy.com's free shipping would cover it, but it's only for stuff under 20lbs. Buy.com's shipping was $23.

Thanks Nergee... Have been looking for a good case and had not decided between a SX1030 or a SX830 and the $6.95 shipping helped. All I need to complete my first system is a motherboard and CPU. plus a understanding wife.

 

[Blakwngbrd]

I know how it feels Chuck! (minus the understanding wife...in this case it required an understanding boyfriend) I finally got my motherboard and processor today...and I'm about to go home and build. Yay!

 

[smoooooooooov]

hmm... this isn't a bad deal. i got the sx1030 from onvia a couple months back for like $92 shipped, and i love it.

 

[wjones]

[Capstone20]

too bad they don't got the black one

 

[mycoman]

There is no black sx830, only the sx1030..designated by a 'b' after the model #.

SX1030B

Are antec's power supplies AMD approved. I see nothing on their website.

Thanks

 

[Planktune]

Iwas just going to ask that. AMD?
no approval no deal

 

[shawnat]

Not a good deal.
Bought my SX1030 2 months ago for $68.95+16 ship. Let me know and I'll find the place. I just forgot the name. Anyway, the SX1030 is a much better case for power users and servers.
It has 2 additional fans! Plus a front cover. Looks great when you paint it! In my opinion, although the 1030 is rather big, it's worth it. A better deal than the little brother...

 

[mycoman]

Man they are the exact same size, same case for that matter. The 1030 just adds an extra internal and external bay (8 in 830, 10 in 1030) and front cover. They are both the same dimensions, exactly..except the 1030 is a few lbs heavier. Both come with 2 fans, with slots for 2 more, and have AMD approved PS's

 

[TatSteeL]

this is the nicest case. Have one for about 6 months and loves it. Plenty of room and easy to take HD, IDE out

 

[todays]

The place that had them cheaper was Page Computer but you have to pay for shipping. Still a good deal and a great case. I own one and would buy another for my next project.

 

[Coca-cola Bear]

If you don't mind the aggravaition of simply walking into a Fry's Electronics store my local one had the SX830's for $100 flat.

 

[rondeemc]

Onvia has the case for $89.10 including free shipping.

Here's a dumb question. These are "server" cases. I am just a plain old computer operator, no server. Our servers here at the office use special cases that my ATX motherbaord would not fit in. Do these work as just plain old cases for an ATX motherbaord ?

For example, why does the mid dower antec case w/ 300 W ps cost the same amount or more ????

 

[ProfessorFrink]

shawnat,
first of all, $68.95 for the sx1030 is nuts and I'd be interested to know where you got it. Rarely have I even seen it for under 100. I bought the sx830 a couple months ago and it's not any smaller than the 1030. It's more like the 1030's alterego than its little brother. They are identical except for the drive bay layout (the sx830's drives are higher up and it comes with one drive cage, exposing the top front fan). Both cases have room for 4 80mm fans, but they each come with 2 unless the reseller includes a couple. I intentionally bought the 830 over the 1030 because I have a LiveDrive that my headphones are always plugged into, plus I hate the idea of having a flimsy plastic door in my way. As for the quality of the case, I've never seen its equal. Putting my components was simply effortless, which is saying a lot becuase I have 6 ide devices in addition to the livedrive. I got a good deal on my case about 6 months ago, which was $112 shipped w/ a floppy drive from thetechstore.com. Although I should note that my 830 is definitely unusual becuase it has 2 drive cages just like the 1030. This came as quite a nice surprise when I popped it open for the first time.

Anyway, this is a great deal and I would recommend it to anyone that needs a roomy midtower with great airflow (it's 4" taller than my old enlight 7233).

Icrontic (formerly apu's hardware) has glowing reviews of both cases, but I can't link them currently due to the site being down.
So instead, I'll link up The Tech Zone's review: SX830 Review

Is it true that the P4 require a new style of case? (Please, no AMD vs. Intel comments)
