The TX1088AMG is one solidly built case. It provides plenty of room for any SOHO environment. And for those that are into water cooling, this style of casing has always been a favorite. And the TX1088 is no exception to that. It allows plenty of room for various size radiators and other complex water setup components. And for those that need it for its true purpose, a server case, it has plenty of drive bays. So if you need a huge file server or whatever, the TX won't disappoint you...

The design and execution of the P160W, while not perfect, is very impressive indeed. It's quiet and has very good cooling potential. With the exception of the drive rail issue and the rather fussy stealth cover buttons, the case was a pleasure to work with. I particularly like the design of the HDD drive trays, the motherboard tray and the control panel. The aluminum chassis is light but robust with a well-designed layout...

Since I am not a millionaire, yet, I have seen my fair share of the low and mid price range computer cases. With the name like Antec behind this case, I had pretty high expectations. Now I can see why this case sells so well. It has the perfect recipe for the perfect purchase like affordability, being lightweight, and last but not least important it is well constructed. Antec has clearly thought of you the consumer when designing this case. For a MRSP of about $75 I think this case is a great buy...

Antec has designed this clever device to help put your worries to rest. The Notebook Cooler is designed to keep a constant airflow underneath your laptop which in most cases is where it will be drawing air from which will help the laptop's cooling to work as efficient as possible. Laptop computers are not cheap so you might as well have it running as cool as possible...

Antec power supplies are one that doesn't need much of an introduction. They have been favorites of alot of people that want the most out of their computer power supply. Antec was nice enough to let us examine one of the new Smart Power 500 watt power supplies. The Smart Power series of power unit may not have the industrial strength of the NeoHE series or the extreme quietness of the Phantom line but it does have the quality of both of the two power supplies mentioned...

The Take 4 was designed for professional audio recording as a part of Antecs Studio Series. In this role this case will impress everyone who adds it to their studio. The lack of noise generated by the Take 4 is amazing and the cooling ability is something I have not seen out of a two-fan case in all my years building computers. The included power supply has wonderfully stable voltages that indicate a long healthy life in its future, plus, it is an Antec power supply. The name alone tells us it is a quality unit as Antec has been known for superb quality for a number of years...

You have expensive toys, and want to prolong the life of them as much as possible. One of the best ways to do this is to take extra steps to keep your components cool. Antec has a solution for your video card, a double slot cooler. They say that use of the VCool can decrease your GPU's temperature between 5C and 15C!

It seems that Antec has another winner on their hands. This power supply performed very well, on par with all the other Antec products we have received so far. Let's hope they keep up there excellent work and keep providing us with such high quality products like this one. A lot of people will only buy high quality power supplies if they're experiencing problems. It's about time you realize that if you want to keep your system stable, especially with today's power consuming technology, you will need a good power supply like this one. Antec has added a lot of nice features to the TruePower II series in order to satisfy us, for example the double PCI-e cables for SLI...

AMD or Intel; ATI or Nvidia; Water Cool or Air Cool; Huge heatsink or Normal size; it does not matter here; we are talking about a new Sonata II ATX case from Antec. Unless, you are one of those fanatics who doesn't need a case at all. Armed with 1x120 mm fan and room for one more it comes with unique fan duct. Can Sonata II be a quiet case? Read on...

This case was amazing in truth and I liked the layout a lot, there was a few things I could go into detail about that I didn't like though. The first was the gap between the PSU and fan in the lower chamber that could put modular PSU's out of the question as well as those with front fans. The second is the plastic hooks on the side panel, in my opinion if you regularly open the side panel it could be a problem. Having said that, most of you don't constantly take of your side panels frequently and it shouldn't be that much of a problem...

While the case can be considered a tad small compared to what is available on the market, it shouldn't hinder the installation of any of your components. The motherboard fits in nicely and all the drives went in without getting in the way of anything. Paired with another top quality power supply, the cables are the right length so not too much slack is present...

Undoubtedly the finest case I've seen so far this year. The P180 features every positive characteristic of Antec's 2005 product line, then goes a bit further by giving you the best of both worlds, cooling performance and sound suppression. I also very much like the aesthetics of the P180, While a big fan of the subdued look of the Sonata II and TX640B, the P180 will look fine everywhere. The brushed metal finish is attractive, but also won't show fingerprints or scratches quite as easily as the other Antec cases I've looked at this year...

The Sonata II retains everything positive from the original, and with some cooling enhancements, a larger PSU, and decent price, those of you in the market for a mid tower to house your gaming system should be very happy with what the Sonata II has to offer. Overall I have no problem recommending the Sonata II to anyone looking for a quality mid tower case. Featuring Antec's typical high quality design and some great looks, the Sonata II should prove to be every bit as popular as the original.

With Antec's typical solid design and some good looks the TX640B is a great choice for a first time builder or casual computer user working with limited space...

The Antec Titan 550 server case is nothing flashy, nor should it be, although this isn't to say the case isn't attractive. The matte black and sturdy design is simple yet easy on the eyes. The Titan 550 is an incredibly customizable and sturdy case. There is enough room here for any configuration you can possibly dream up. I found no sharp edges or fabrication problems at all. Installation should be incredibly straightforward and simple. Ventilation is more than adequate, and when a pair of 92mm fans are used, cooling should never be an issue...
