Does someone like The Simpsons? :p

Very nice setup, DL. (Y)

and Family Guy...

Chia Homer? lol

Being a known Simpsons lover means you get a lot of gifts from people Simpsons related, Chia Homer being one of them... Actually every thing Simpsons in this room was a gift. My favorite is probably the Lava Lamp that is cut off at the very top left. It is Carl, Lenny, and Homer around a Nuclear Reactor and Homer is sleeping. LOL

The scary thing is, my actual Simpsons toy collection is in storage. Not even kidding. :blink: :laugh:

Thanks though. (Y)

Changed to a Lian-Li PC-7FWB today from the Antec P182

Great case all round tbh.

Jesus Christ, how in the heck do you keep it so clean inside and out.. haha

Elbow grease!

You're going to o_0 when you see the new PSU installed now though below lol

I got an OCZ ModXtreme 600watt and also a Zalman Fanmate2 for the intake fan as on my mobo only one fan header (other than the CPU) can be voltage controlled from the OS and I wanted my 3rd fan slowed down to be less audible (I have super ears hah!).

Anyway, All fans are now running 700-900rpm and are uber silent, before I could hear the front fan's ambient hum but now not so. A baby could sleep with the PC on. Definitely.

And you had to quote the entire post just to say an oneliner?

@mrk, nice case. I've been looking at the V1000Z but it costs too much for what it's offering and yours is quite good alternative. I'm also looking at the Antec Mini P180 (anyone has one?) which seems to be quite spacious although the design is not on the same level as Lian-Li's.

How come you swapped the P182 which is bigger and roomier?

That Mini P180 looks a better design than my old P182 - The drive bay layout has changed to offer more space, I wonder if the front casing itself has changed, I hate the new style Antec doors with the chav bodykit vents, why could they not keep it plain?

Great choice on the PSU. I have the 500W and love it. I only wish the 8 pin CPU cable was a bit longer.

Agree. It's probably the only thing keeping me from ordering it right away.

The P182 was slimmer but taller, it doesn't give any more room to work with than the Lian Li really and cables can be tidied behind just as easy - the bonus point is that it's lighter and better finished as well as the PSU being open so it's much easier to connect and wire new modular cables when needed and remove the PSU with minimum hassle when cleaning dust and stuff.
