Hey All,
For those of you anxiously awaiting the release of the P160 ATX case from Antec, it turns out it won't be available until mid-November.

I just
spoke to Antec and they informed me there were some manufacturing defects in the first batch of cases, which will push back the release date.
They're expecting the 2nd batch to arrive in about a month from now. That's it for now. Laters.

My first post here...nice site with a lot of info. I've been looking forward to getting this case to try to quiet down my system which has 3 80mm intake, a 80 output and 60 output. As you can imagine, it's pretty noisy. I been checking the sites looking for more info on this case. Today I saw Directron listed it as due November 15. I pretty disappointed because it seemed to be what I needed.

Yeah I know what you mean. I've been anxiously awaiting this case as I've been using a really janky case from the late 20th century to house my brand new 3ghz+ machine. A sad sad story, indeed. Oh well, I'll live another 3 weeks...I hope. Anyways, good luck.

I pre-ordered one today. I was desperately looking for something I have never been able to find and knew did not exist, and lo-and-behold, I came across this new (so new it doesn't even exist yet) case. It took me all of about 5 minutes to make up my mind that this is the case for me. Stylish, quiet features, top mounted ports, 120mm case fans. This is a combination of features found in no other case.

The bugging question for me was, given that it doesn't come with a PSU (which in itself is a good thing, cos u can choose ur own), is it worth the extra AUD200 on top of an SLK3700BQE?
