I also contacted Antec for a replacement. Took about 3 weeks to get from US to Canada (but I blame Canadian customs for that since everything from the US takes that long). I can thank USPS and Canada Post for beating the crap out of the replacement module. One of the USB jacks and the eSATA jack was...

I'm looking for some opinions on what people would recommend for a NAS setup. I'm picking up a QNAP TS410 NAS tomorrow (4 bay) and I'm having a bit of dilemma on what drives to pick. It seems like every single drive out there has some fault and short of forking out big money for the RAID editions of...

Hmm...looks interesting. Seems to work fine with the top cage mount which is my second preference. Might not fit in the bottom cage since I suspect that the rear screw location would line up with the elongated hole (and won't be able to be screwed in securely). I'll have to go to my local store and ...

Looking to get some suggestions from the wise folks in this forum on how people have mounted their SSD's (or I guess any 2.5" drives) in an Antec P183. I'm having some difficulty finding a suitable mounting method for a pair of SSD's (Intel x25-m) in my case. Basically, the two options I've looked i...

Just got the replacement module from Antec today. We'll see how it goes when I get home. Support was pretty responsive, and the module appears at least slightly different from the old one (the USB connector is two separate 5 pin plugs instead of one 10-pin plug). But as they say, the proof of the p...

Speedfan reports the fan speeds as 1776RPM, 819RPM and 918RPM for the GT's (which are all connected to the MB fan headers). I guess you could call that pretty much full speed. When you mention top exhaust, I'm assuming you mean the top fan? Should it blow down or out of the case? I still have the An...

Looking to get some advice from the wise folks here on what I should do to quieten my PC. Right now, it's giving off quite a bit of fan noise, and I'm looking to see which ones would be best to disconnect while maintaining reasonable temperatures. Below is a picture I took and I've put in arrows whe...

Let us know if the replacement fixes the problem! I'm more than anxious to know if it does. It's annoying enough on my P183 that I've stopped using my front headphone jack as well.

Hopefully Antec_Rep will come in here and maybe talk to their engineering folks to get this fixed (and maybe provide us with a way to swap out our boxes) I don't particularly want to hack up my USB/eSATA "box" either since with my limited skills, I'd probably demolish the box and cut right through a...

Great suggestions all-around. Question for you though Antec-Rep, would that fan cover you showed me fit the top vent of the P183 properly? Also, where might I get a piece of bitumen? Hey Siegfried262 - I have a P183, and I have that piece from my Antec Fusion case for my HTPC. I found the piece in ...

There's vents on the side and front of the P183 for air to get into the case. I too haven't noticed any significant temperature changes with the door open or closed. I've currently got an 1150rpm and 850rpm Scythe Gentle Typhoons out front and a Scythe S-Flex (1200rpm) pulling air out the back and a...

I've got a P183 with a Megahalems on a Gigabyte x58a UD7 with an i7 930 so I can't speak for any of the other coolers, but I also had a problem with fans and the taller RAM modules. I've got the Corsair CMD12GX3M6A1600C8 RAM with the heatsinks on top. (Google the model to see pics of it since I can'...
