Antec Announces Performance One P8 Chassis
In the year of their 31st anniversary, Antec Inc., a leading provider of high-performance computer components and accessories for the gaming, PC upgrade and Do-It-Yourself market, presents the latest mid tower of their award-winning Antec Performance One Series: the Antec P8. The case is now commercially available from 79€ (suggested retail price including VAT).
The P8 offers stylish design, excellent cooling performance and great features. The mid-tower measures 443 mm x 210 mm x 470 mm (height x width x depth) and is compatible with micro-ATX / ATX/ ITX motherboards and supports up to 390 mm VGA cards. The case boasts two convertible tool-less 2.5" / 3.5" HDD drive cages, four 2.5" SSD drive cages as well as seven expansion slots. The chassis is made of steel / ABS and an attractive tempered glass side panel offer great insight into the installed components. The chassis features a PSU chamber to isolate the PSU from the other components and to minimize heat production and system noise.In order to keep its cool, the P8 offers space for 3x120mm or 2x140mm case fans in the front, 3x120mm or 2x140mm at the top and 1x120mm fan in the rear. The thought-out case already comes with two pre-installed 120 mm white LED fans at the front and one pre-installed 120 white LED fan in the back. For extra water-cooling, the P8 allows to install a 240 mm radiator on top (limited), a 360 mm radiator in the front and a 120 mm radiator in the rear.
The elegant front bezel offers access to HD audio jacks, two USB 3.0 ports, Power and reset and a white glowing Antec logo at the front of case, and last but not least, three washable dust filters on the front, top and bottom of this compact mid-tower.

9 Comments on Antec Announces Performance One P8 Chassis
As for the case, I too am happy to see Antec finally catching up with the needs of current PC builders. 8+ fixed HDD cages are neither necessary nor desirable in the average enthusiast desktop in 2017, and their lack of radiator support has been depressing. Now, please bring some of this to the noise insulated series, please.
