Our first experience with the Performance One dates back to the P160W, which now stands out as an aberration in a series that took a turn towards elegant aesthetics and quiet computing. The metamorphosis began with the original P180, a chassis we felt had potential, but ultimately described as a "time sink" in terms of installation. Then came the P182, which brought with it an effective cable management scheme, but left us hot under the collar with its ho-hum cooling potential. Can the P190 + 1200 finally silence our criticisms and emerge as the chassis we've been hoping for from the Performance One series?

Since 1986, Antec has been providing the computer hardware community with grade A cases and power supplies. Their tradition continues on to this day with their power supplies being the best in the business. Antec's cases are equally well known for quality. Today, ASE Labs looks at the Antec Nine Hundred which is one of Antec's premier cases.

Antec's Performance One series of cases have been the recipients of much praise from the industry, with some going so far as to claim they are the de facto standard for inexpensive feature rich performance computer cases. We're going to test that claim with the most recent addition to the Performance One line, the P182 Advanced Super Midtower.

EarthWatts is a series of power supplies from Antec with a Spartan look and relatively low cost, but able to deliver 80% efficiency and nominal power labeled at 50C, also featuring active PFC and two video card connectors for your SLI or CrossFire setup. Let's take an in-depth look inside the 500 W model and see if it can really deliver its labeled power.

NeoPower is a high efficiency power supply series from Antec, being sold in the past as "HE" (High Efficiency). According to Antec, power supplies from this series have an efficiency of up to 85% (compare to less than 70% on regular power supplies), meaning less power loss - an 85% efficiency means that 85% of the power pulled from the power grid will be converted in power on the power supply outputs and only 15% will be wasted. This translates into less consumption from the power grid (as less power needs to be pulled in order to generate the same amount of power on its outputs), meaning lower electricity bills. Power supplies from this series - currently available on 380 W, 430 W, 500 W, 550 W and 650 W versions - feature a modular cabling system and a standard 80-mm fan on their rear side. We took an in-depth look on the 550 W model and tested to see if it could really deliver its rated 550 W or not.

Here at Overclockers Online, we have taken a look at numerous power supplies, many of which capable of powering some of the most can power some of the most high end systems, and then some, and of course, costing quite a pretty penny too. Every so often, we come across power supply that is more likely to be found in the typical enthusiasts' computer system, and this is one of them. While we of course love playing with bleeding edge hardware, power supplies like the NeoPower 650W Blue are far more relevant to most enthusiasts offering solid performance at an incredibly generous cost.

Home theater PCs are a growing market. More and more people are looking for a device that can drive their entire home theater. For many, the HTPC is the solution; however, most do not want a clunky computer intruding into their living room. Who wants a Cooler Master Cosmos towering over everything in their living room? Thus over the years, many companies have offered PC cases designed specifically for the task of housing a Home Theater PC. We've looked at other HTPC cases in the past, such as the SilverStone Milo series and the Lascala LC20M, but today we will look at the Antec Veris Fusion Black 430, which is also referred to as the Fusion Black v2.

Antec, Inc. considers itself a brand of high-performance computer component supplier for the gaming, upgrading, and the Do-It-Yourself enthusiast markets. They are over 20 years old and most of us know them as a purveyor of quality PC cases. But the Antec product line is not limited to enclosures. They also market cooling accessories, media components, and (as you might guess from this article's title) power supplies such as the True Power Quattro (TPQ) series - their top of the line power supply series. Today we have one of those TPQ supplies in the form of a True Power Quattro 850 watt unit.

It's Antec. Antec is best-known for its cases, but its power supply business is growing immensely because of units such as the focus of this review, the TruePower Quattro 1000W Power Supply Unit. This race-car themed stallion of a power supply delivers a keen 1000W to an enthusiast's innards. Its four 12V rails are adequate to power just about anything thrown at it. Prepared to be jolted by this review.

Antec has really done it with this case. This is the first case in a long time that I really enjoyed using. I'm actually thinking of using it permanently. The case is very silent, it eats vibrations for breakfast because there are none that I can hear. The front door keeps the ugly drives away from sight and its lockable too. The sidepanel is easy accessible and the room inside is just sufficient enough but could be a tad bigger. The included powersupply is silent yet powerful enough to keep the juice flowing to your hardware. In the end, this is a very nice case with excellent built quality.
