It dont fit? You said your old one was an ATX PSU.

I have the Antec 900, i like it, very good cooling. Its not to everyones tastes but a case is personal preference.

Pics in Gallery.



EDIT: Just seen your edit, the other two case's are horrid! (IMO)

It's ever so slightly bigger then my other PSU, and that was tight enough behind the CD/DVD drives, no room to squeeze the cables in so ...

You got a link to that case please mate, can't find it on www.overclockers.co.uk

As if the last edit isn't a funky case! Aeroplane case weee!

The two front and one rear fans are Antec Tri Cool 120mm with blue led's yes. The side fan is optional, i had another Tri cool from my old case so i put it on the side panel. The fans have a three position switch on them for 'low medium and high' Mine runs all on low and the 200mm fan on top runs on medium and i cant hear any of them.
