Dilemma for new system , SOLO VS ANTEC P183

Post by karkee » Wed Mar 10, 2010 2:21 am

Still havent decided what case ill be using either the solo or antec P183,

Hardware: I5 750, 8gb, noctua NH12se2, gigabyte P55UD5, ati 5770 etc, seasonic x-650,SSD & samsung 1TB for data.

Fans will be using all nexus at 5v & 7v.

Im just thinking if the solo without front fans would have good enough airflow for temps or should I go for the P183

I find the P183 to be awkward.

What does it do that the solo doesn't?

I'm running an i7 860 on an EVGA P55 with SSD and two HDD with a 4670 passive in a Solo. My temps are under 30C for the CPU cores with the exhaust and CPU fan at 600 rpm.
