Antec P280 Full Tower Chassis Review
Peter Donnell / 12 years ago
Overall installation time took around 15 minutes, which is extremely quick for any system build, but the overall layout and installation process on the P280 is really straight forward. There are no radiacal design features and all the ideas implemented are simple to use and should be more than familar to anyone. While cable management doesn’t look perfect, all the cables are well routed and out of the way of any airflow or components, so cooling performance should be unaffected.
Our Antec 920 Kuhler fit with ease, although it would have been a little embarrassing if an Antec cooler didn’t fit in a premium Antec chassis. Both the cooler and out GTX 560 Ti have plenty of airflow and all that extra ventilation on the back of the chassis will no doubt be put to good use in maximising airflow.
The front of the chassis looks nice and clear too, all the front panel cables were easily routed through the top of the chassis and behind the motherboard, further improving any airflow and keeping the overall interior appearance looking neat and tidy.
