PRODUCT PICTORIAL AND WALKTHROUGH

The right side panel is rather plain, and the rear of the case gives us a clue that this is an unusual design.

Probably the best feature on the back of the case is the fan controllers. Like the P180, the P182 sports Antec Tri-Cool (three speed) fans, but Antec has placed the controls on the outside of the case. With this feature, the top and rear exhaust fans can be adjusted without opening the case. You'll notice that there is no placement for the PSU in this area…

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

…because it's at the bottom of the chassis. Vented slot covers and grommetted tubing holes are also nice features here. After removing the two thumbscrews that secure the right side panel, we can get a look inside.

As I mentioned earlier, the interior of the P182 is very similar to its older sibling.
