I finally got the Antec Plus 880 case all put together, and I am impressed.



Likes:



1. High quality, sturdy construction

2. No sharp edges

3. Easy to use and assemble

4. Plenty of room & plenty of cable

5. Runs fairly quiet, despite a total of 8 fans (2 front, 2 rear, 2 power supply, 1 CPU, 1 AGP)

6. Runs cooler than the Fung Fooey case (5C to 6C on average)

7. 2 front USB ports, and 1 firewire

8. Side panel is very simple to remove and reinstall



Dislikes:

1. I only have one

I'm in the process of building another computer, so I ordered an Antec Plus 880 case from NewEgg.com for $121 + $15 S/H.



The case is large, 8 drive bays, comes with Antec's TruePower 430 watt power supply, and comes standard with 2 rear fans, and the option to install 2 in the front, and one more in the the panel. All fans are temperature controlled by the power supply. The case also has two front USB ports and a firewire port, and the side panel has a lockable, quick release latch that actually works. I know, as I spent some time playing with it at CompUSA.

I'll poast more once I receive the case and put the system together.
