Here is a pic Of the CUP cooler on my INTEL CORE 2 DUO E6750 in the case.
My temps run 29c idle and 40c under hevy load.running at 3.2........

PS if there is a down side to the case it is HEVY!
I've got 3 antec cases now, and love them
the p180 is a fantastic tower case. I'd be hard pressed to use anything else anymore

There was an incredible deal on one of the cases by coolermaster and I jumped on it.

What is the general consensus on this case? i like the fact that the front is like a filtered air duct.

I'm going to look over for the heatsinks and the power supply as recommended.

  Hi I'm ready to build my next gen PC to get in line with whats out in the market. I'm going the Intel Core 2 duo path (or maybe quad).

I want two recommendations at this point to keep the PC silent.

1. Power supply that silent with about 500W-550W of power.
2. Heatsink which is extremely quiet and does the job of keeping things cool.
3. A case that will help with the above two setups to help my pc keep cool n quiet.

If I can get these things worked out, I'll probably have most of my problems solved. I don't plan on overclocking. I'm not really a gamer. I watch movies on my pc and often do a lot of conversion/encoding.

hope this helps.

regards,
Chirag
