I bought this case from a local store a couple years ago. I am trying to locate another one but am not having much luck. I have looked all over the inside and outside to try to locate a model number and/or manufacturer but haven't found anything. Is there a special secret place I'm missing? I am attaching a couple pictures. If anyone recognizes it and knows who the mfg'er is please let me know. Thanks!

Never mind! Just found it! It's an APEX Super Case Model #11060-G2-P4.

Just a comment that quiet isn't everything! I bought an Antec case and it is definitely quiet; have to check to see if the fans are really running at times however I have regretted that purchase from the first item installed. The drives are in an easily removed drive cage which should be a plus but isn't. If you want to remove just one drive, you have to disconnect all of them to get the drive cage out to work with just one drive. If the PSU ever goes, I will have to remove the motherboard to get the PSU out. AARGH! Wish I had seen one before buying mail order. What was Antec thinking?

kenner,
I'm in the market for a new case and I have been seriously considering Antec. What model case is it that you have?

I got an Antec SLK2650-BQE (http://www.antec.com/us/productDetails.php?ProdID=92650#) a few weeks ago and I'm fairly pleased with it. The only bad thing about it is that it only has 2 internal 3.5" drive bays. Of course, you can always use one of the external 3.5" drive bays or get an adaptor kit and put it one in the 5.25" drive area, but you won't have the sound dampening features there that you do in the internal space. You do have to remove the PSU to remove the mobo, but that's normal. No sharp edges to bloody your knuckles on while you're working inside of the case. The air flow is good, the included power supply is good (it's Antec - of course it's good!), and it was only $40 at Best Buy after MIR's. :cool:

I ended up with an APEX SUPERCASE 1060-G2-P4. I ordered it from mwave.com. Their product number is BA14290.
It is a really nice case for the money, I think. :D

I've got an Antec Super lanboy. That particular model plus a couple of others have a real nice feature where the hard drives go in sideways, so it's really easy to take them out, swap them around, and so forth. Plus there's space to hide your wires. It does require that you take off both sides of the case, but that is easy enough. Plus, it's a really cool looking case, and uses 2 120cm fans front and back. I found that I had to keep the unused pci slots open to keep it cool, but once I did that it runs very cool and very quiet.
Check out newegg.com for a full listing of antec and other cases. You'll get some very good pictures of each case, fromt the front, side, the front panel, and so forth.
