Product Review
Antec P182 Advanced Super Mid Tower ATX Case is the newest edition in Antec's continually improving Performance One design. More innovations have been built in, such as an external fan control for the top and rear fans, a black finish, cable organizers and even rubber grommeted ports for externally mounted liquid cooling radiators. All of these improvements build upon the great features of the original P180: the triple layer side panels and door design, and the upper and lower chamber structure to isolate power supply heat from the rest of your components.
It has 11 drive bays: four external 5.25-inch bays, one external 3.5-inch bay, and six internal 3.5-inch bays for HDD. This case also has seven expansion slots and a remarkable cooling system with one rear 120-millimeter TriCool fan (standard); one top 120-millimeter TriCool fan (standard); one lower chamber 120-millimeter TriCool fan (standard); one front 120-millimeter fan (optional); and one middle 120-millimeter fan (optional) to cool the VGA.
In addition, there is an external fan control on the rear panel for the fans in the upper chamber. Constructed mostly of 0.8-millimeter cold rolled steel, the P182 is a robust case designed to fit standard ATX 12-by-9.6-inch motherboards. It measures 21.3 by 8.1 by 19.9 inches (HxWxD).
