Which case: Corsair 550D or Antec P183?
Posted: Sat Feb 08, 2014 8:45 pm
Looking for a new mid-range gaming build. I have used P180B, P182 and P183 before and I think it is one the best quality and silent cases I have ever used.
The reason I am also considering the Corsair 550D now is that it appears to have somewhat better cooling capacity than the P183. I normally buy Intel CPU's for their performance per watt but I have an AMD FX-8350 with Gigabyte MB as a gift from a friend.
I am concerned that the heat of an AMD FX-8350 combined with an MSI GTX 760 may be difficult to cool quietly in a P183. The Corsair 550D looks very nice, but I still really like the P183 as it does not use any foam and has a very robust build quality. I do not intend to run any SLI setup or use any card with a TDP higher than the GTX 760.
What do you guys think, should I stay with the P183 or should I get the Corsair 550D?
Many thanks in advance!
