So what are you guys going to put in it, mobo-wise?
Was curious as to the choices of mobo you might consider for this case if you are getting it? I was thinking about a shuttle but this one might fit the bill -- noticing the matx only and thinking about that new asus board..

Hmm I don't know if you're aware of it, but the 'Mini' P180 is easily 3 times bigger than a Shuttle.Hellspawn wrote:I was thinking about a shuttle but this one might fit the bill

Does anyone know what this extra hole between the chambers is for?

The P182 also has this extra hole, and the only way to close it is with some ghetto duct tape solution. You'd think with the extra holes for routing cables under the motherboard tray that there would be be LESS holes in the chamber divider, but no, they went and added an extra one.
I wonder if it is an 'emergency' air intake for the bottom chamber in case the bottom filter gets too clogged?

Purely for cable routing, I think. I don't think it's worth patching up with tape, though - If you have a fan in the middle of the bottom chamber, air will take the path of least resistance and head towards the PSU. And unless you had a very weak bottom chamber fan (~25 CFM) and extremely powerful top & rear exhausts (150 CFM~) I highly doubt much / any air would be diverted up through the hole.
Newegg has the Mini P180 in stock now, but for $159.95 (plus $19.09 shipping)! What's up with that? That's more than they charge for the P182.

Price at ZZF is $129.99.
Hopefully a review soon? And does anyone besides me wish they had modified the front panel so that the power button is exposed when the door is closed? I actually turn my computers off at night, and the (admittedly minor) hassle of opening/closing the front panel every time to do this actually was one reason I did not buy a P180.

Has the price of paint shot up recently?Shaman wrote:Maybe it's more expensive because of the black interior?
While i think the P182's design is better, the go faster arrows and random holes are far from ugly. I guess antec had to do something other than shave a few inches off to make it look at least slightly different.
