Sure you have to buy a power supply, and I know they want to pass that off as a "feature" (lol, marketing people are funny), but at $60, I sure couldn't find a nicer case for that price. It's well laid out, sturdy and light, with a lot of extras you wouldn't expect to find, even in cases much more expensive. I love how clean the case is, it doesn't try and hit you over the head with blue LED's or flimsy plastic parts that are hot glued on.

Now that the personal computer has finally made its way into our living and family rooms it became necessary for a bit of case beautification. One of the companies that has just that with great success is our friends at Antec. Today we are reviewing one of their HTPC cases the Antec Fusion Black 430, this case has a great deal to offer and deserves a closer look for anyone pondering the thought of building a HTPC.

With the 300, Antec has addressed one of the bigger complaints from its 900 case; cable management. With sleek looks and excellent cooling the 300 offers a lot of bang for a small amount of dough. Installation is trouble free and the 300 is far roomier than it actually looks.

Antec steps up to the plate to deliver a brand new case in the "Hundred" series. Betting on the success of the excellent Nine Hundred, Antec has released a lower end model dubbed, the Three Hundred. Known as the " Versatile Case," will the new case stand out from its bigger, badder brother? Probably not, but it is at a better price point that its sibling.

TruePower Quattro 850 W is a power supply from Antec featuring modular cabling system, four auxiliary PCI Express power cables for video cards, active PFC, efficiency above 80% and the very traditional ATX looks, with a small 80-mm fan on the rear side. The manufacturer promises that this unit can deliver its labeled power at 50� C. Sounds promising, but can this unit really deliver 850 W? Let's see.

Antec is never stopping with the introduction of new cases. If seems like every 3 months or so there is a new case to drool over. That new case today is the tiny brother case of the P180 which is simply labeled the P180 Mini. The Mini carries many of the features of the P180 but in a smaller shell. The only thing that is lacking is the spacing of the P180. But the compartments and cable management systems remain in place. But what the Mini has over the regular size P180 is lighter weight and somewhat portability. It is definitely one for the person that is lacking room to house a bigger size tower but is it one for the LAN goers? This is what we will find out.

Antec's 1200 has been a long time in the making but HEXUS got its hands on the first pre-production sample. That's now been through our labs - and here's our world exclusive take!

NSK4480 is one of the simplest cases from Antec, targeted to users that want to build a mainstream PC with a good 380 W power supply (this model comes with an Antec EarthWatts 380 W power supply already installed) and prefer having a smaller PC with a more conservative looks, but with a good construction, a 120-mm rear fan and side duct.

The original P180 case was launched already three years ago and has since been replaced by a new and improved P182 model. The P1-series also includes the P190, which is a larger case including same design features as the P180, but it also offers room for EATX-motherboards and dual power supplies. Now the performance 1 series also includes a long awaited mATX-case - say hello to the P180 Mini!

In many ways, the Sonata III seems to be more of a tweaked version of the Sonata II than a complete imagination. Why mess with something that works? But are these tweaks really an improvement or just cosmetic changes to sell a few more cases? Today, we're going to find out if Antec continues with the "Quiet Computing" legacy with the Sonata III.

Once again, it is time to review a case from Antec. This time it is the Antec Sonata Designer 500, which is a new version in the Sonata series. With the Sonata Designer 500, Antec is trying to stand out from the crowd, with features like changeable front panels. As another special feature, Antec has equipped the Sonata Designer 500 with thin panels on the sides and top to limit the noise.

The Antec P180 enclosure can not very well be called a brand new design, but what it can be referred to is "A case worthy of re-examining." That is exactly what we did, we examined this enclosure from top to bottom and I think you will agree after reading our review that this case has a lot of mileage left in it.

Antec is back again with their Sonata casing, this time coupled with their fabulous NeoPower 550watts power supply. They packed it altogether in one box and called it the Sonata Plus 550. Another Sonata case, that at first sight looks a bit dull but if you look closer you'll be amazed by what this case has to offer.
