Antec TX1050B Black SOHO Tower Case

Product Summary & Final Conclusions:

Bottom line, the Antec TX1050B takes a proven (and classic) case design and brings it to a whole new level. Features that have worked excellent in the past have remain virtually unchanged. Cooling has been improved with the dual vents on the side panel, along with the change to a 120mm fan on the rear. An air-filter on the front helps trap dust and other contaminants, keeping the inside cleaner. Probably my favorite improvement is the dual hinged front door, allowing it to open up to 270º.

The included Smart Power 500W modular PSU is a nice addition to an already great case. The combination of a modular design along with all cables having black mesh sleeving should help to keep everything neat and tidy. With 12V rails that stayed within 1% of nominal, it is an excellent choice for any modern PC. My only complaint was having 6 separate power cable for various devices, but only 4 power connectors were present on the PSU.

EXTREME Overclocking - Highly Recommend Product!

Coupon codes for Dell Home, expiring 8/13/08 at 5:55AM CT or after a limited number of redemptions, unless otherwise specified.

      • If you want a loaded Inspiron 1525, they've got one with a 1.86GHz Dual Core, 3GB of memory instead of 2, 250GB SATA hard drive instead of the 120, and everything else being the same for $699. I would upgrade the display again for just $50 to the full 1680x1050 which brings your total to just $749. But again, this is only if you don't need to customize much and you're just looking for a rocking 15.4" laptop. Upgrade this puupy beyond the $1349 and use the 30% off coupon.
