    i have this, got it for 45 or so from newegg a few months ago. It's been great. Note that it includes the top 140mm and the back 120 but none for the front 2 slots or the side, so that adds a few bucks...

    the antec 900 (got one for 70 a little while ago) includes the 2 front fans as well, and the top is a 200mm. otherwise, they're about the same size.

    What # 2 says and the PSU sits on the bottom. Decent case.

    Yes the PSU sits at the bottom but it draws air from inside the case, unlike from under the case as seen in some cases like the Cooler master cosmos.
    What it means that you will have to balance the in/out air flow correctly otherwise the psu fan will have a tough time blowing air out, resulting in a higher temp psu..

    Using this case right now. Not silent, but you can't notice the noise unless you're trying.

    Nice space for hiding cables, only bad thing about PSU on the bottom is if your 4pin 12V socket on my motherboard is at the top of the board.

    No 3.5 external, you have to get an adapter, but I don't have a floppy or a 15-in-1, so it doesn't bother me.

    I just took the plunge and ordered it. I was holding out for the Antec 900 case, but this one seems almost as good and WAY lower price. If you look, Newegg is currently offering a combo deal which takes an additional $20 off of the combination of this Antec Three Hundred case (reg $70, on sale $55, w/promo code $44) and an Antec NeoPower 550W PSU (reg $110, on sale $50). The only shipping to pay is on the PSU, for me it was $11.43.

    That's $180 (plus shipping) worth of regular priced stuff for $85 shipped! I don't know if this is considered a separate postable "deal" or not, but I just figured I'd share the news of the incredible combo deal I came into.

    Reviews on this case at Newegg give it an overall rating of 5 eggs! A review on this PSU reports that it's over 85% efficient running between 20% and 80% of load capacity, and an incredible 87%-88% efficient between 20% and 40% of load capacity! Also discovered by this review was that this PSU can provide 650W of output!

    Hope this helps... Enjoy!
