looks like it solves the P182's not quite big enough for tri-sli GTX280's issue...

by about 6 or 8 inches...

not sure I like the ugly side-fan cover...

Why the fuck did they do that?!

Extra room, sure. But the front and side look like ass... The front door doesnt even match the side ! Ill stick with the 182

front looks nice. but as when i first saw it, i was thrown off by the side.

There's another new one - the P183 - too:

https://www.antec.com/images/400/P183_open.jpg

has the same door, but not as big as the P192 (OP), very similar to the P182 inside, looks like they've just moved the bottom-section middle-fan to where it should have been in the first place!

Functionally they look fine but the only major difference is the aesthetics, which seem to kill the clean look of the '2s. It's going down the scifi/grunge path. Sticking with the P182, I don't foresee having problems running TriSLI.

You'll have to lose the upper HDD cage if you want to TriSli GTX280's.

A media server should solve that issue :>

That's uglier than its predecessor.

I think it looks pretty slick, TBH. I mean, cases are generally the same bloody thing. Sure, they're all different in their own ways, but that actually does a good job of standing out and not looking all funky like that huge Lian Li case that came out a few months ago.

I've already taken that out because I'm not using it, but the point I was trying to make is that I'll probably never run TriSLIs because I 1) could not afford it as I'm a teenager with a part time job and 2) couldn't justify the cost even if I did have the money. There are more important things to buy and more cost effective cards.

And your point is?

Only joking - I wish I had the money, and lacked the sense, for TriSLI too.

I ran tri-SLI in a P182 for a couple months

_{once upon a midnight dreary, while i pron surfed, weak and weary, over many a strange and spurious site of ' hot xxx galore'. While i clicked my fav'rite bookmark, suddenly there came a warning, and my heart was filled with mourning, mourning for my dear amour, " 'Tis not possible!", i muttered, " give me back my free hardcore!"..... quoth the server, 404.}

P183 is passable. That hump on the side of the P193 reminds me of Quasimodo.

I've never been a fan of plastic shiny holes.
