Antec Introduces P183 and P193 Chassis

| More

Antec added a couple of new cases to its Performance One lineup at the end of last week, in the shape of the P183 and P193. These two cases should already have a familiar look to them for most, as they build on the designs of the previous P182 and P190 chassis. Both feature the dual chamber design introduced with the P180, which aims to effectively isolate heat and noise. They also get extra vents on the front door to improve airflow. Speaking of airflow, the P183 gets two 120mm fans, one at the top of the chassis and one at the rear, with the option to add up three more fans of the same size. Being the larger of the two, the P193 gets a 120mm rear fan, two 140mm top mounted fans and a 200mm side fan (which has been moved outward to allow for taller CPU heatsinks). Like the P183 there are three further places to mount additional fans. To reduce noise transmission, both cases feature sound-deadening front and side panels and sport 11 drive bays in total (4 x 5.25" + 1 x 3.5" External, 6 x 3.5" Internal). They are also both compatible with Antec's CP series power supply.

You should be able to pick up the P183 or P193 for an estimated price of $179.95 and $209.95 respectively.

d3bruts1d on March 30, 2009 12:00PM I really like the look of the P183. Can't make up my mind about the thing growing on the side of the P193. Hoping I win one in the Antec Twitter contest. reply to this
