Antec B Stock

Seasonic S12. The power cables reach anywhere in the case.

It's tight if the connector is up around the CPU since you have to snake the cable past your processor. If it's high and to the right no problem.
 
The P160 came to 125$ for me.
I'm Canadian though, so shipping is gonna be more.

Still, it's a cheap price for the case.
 
For whoever has gotten a B-stock p180, is it the original version or the revised one?

Antec started shipping a revised version that does not come with the vga air funnel and instead has air vents above the expansion slots backpanel and a clip that can let a fan blow at the cards.
 
Received my P150 yesterday. It's in almost perfect condition. There's a small yellowish spot on one of the side panels about 1/8" round.

I did have one problem which I knew about before I purchased it. The Neo HE 430 has been having a lot of problems. The system will not start. Fans spin for a second then turn off.

90 day warranty so everything should be alright.

Aside from the PSU it's one hell of a deal.
 
Picked up a Super LANBOY for my back-up rig. Aside from expensive shipping ($25) the item was pretty much in new conditions.
 
Got my Minuet 300 yesterday.

The box was a little messed up, but there is no way I could tell the case isn't new. I have no idea what makes it B-stock.

Swanky little case though.
 
Just fyi for anyone thinking of getting a p180, outpost.com currently has them for 99.99 free shipping for a new one which beats the bstock price + s/h at least for now.

Looking at the lowerend cases do any of them come with PSU';s?

They come with PSUs if the retail versions do.

For instance, the SLK1650 comes with a 350W SmartPower 2.0.

I just picked up an Antec Sonata II from their warehouse and it does come with a PSU. Plus I can't even tell if this was ever used!

Note: For all the people picking up the B-stock products, you'll need to go to their second warehouse, not their main office. Make sure to ask for the directions first before going there!
 
Anyone have any experience with teh Super LANBOY? I'm thinking about picking that one up.

Needed something of good quality. Quiet. Good air-flow.

LANBOY looks like a decent case.

Hey if you pick up say an Antec Titan for me and shipped it..do you think shipping would be more or less than what Antec charges ($40)?
 
I have the Super Lanboy. Great case, especially for that price
 
So, have any of you that purchased Antec B stock hardware had any issues that would prevent the rest of us from purchasing from them? I'm kind of in the market for another case, but am not sure if I want to spring for one at their site or not.... :confused: I'm seeing several good comments, but would like to hear about the other side (if ther was any).

My experience with Antec B stock has been good. I received one of the numerous defective Neo 430 PSU’s with my P150. Called them up for support. They indicated the PSU was bad and had me fill out an RMA form. Within a week I had a brand new PSU. Simple. Easy and it’s fixed.

No complaints. I have bought two, and I sure as hell can't figure out what made them B-stock. Both are in perfect condition.
 
If you didn't need the LCD, the NSK 2400 has been a great little case so far for my HTPC. I really want a Titan 550 case for my server at home. Mmmm..... <drool>
 
I bought a B-Stock P180 black about a week ago for my new Conroe machine. I have yet to notice anything wrong with it (inside or out). I got it for just over 100 shipped which I think is a steal.

I have one at work for a dual opteron machine. It is a humongous case - I would not recommend it unless you need the space for a dual proc mobo or a very large disk array.
