Antec Solo or P180

Hi i love the look of the Antec solo (p150) but im a bit worried that i wont be able to fit everything in. Is the P180 just a bigger version of the Solo? Will the P180 be louder? Would i notice the difference?

I intend to get the following setup. Will this fit in the Solo case?

E6600
Asus P5B
4x 1gb crosair value pack 533
Nexus fans 120mm x1 92mm x2
zalmen cpu heatsink
7600gs with zalmen cooling (rare gaming)
Antec Neo HE 430w psu
4 harddrives or (3 harddrives 1 being WD raptor)
Liteon combo

You can fit that stuff into any mid atx case that you want, it will be no problem at all, just get the case you really like better.

definitely P180 its perhaps Antec's most advanced case in terms of thermal efficiency, and audible noise and its very easy to organize everything in the case.

The Solo is a very nice case also, but the P180 has been around for a while and you cant really find a better case. Also there is a ton of room to work in (you might be able to fit a kid in that thing.

If you want a little more WOW factor, definitely get an Antec Nine Hundred, i just got one of these for my AM2 build and it is definitely the best looking case ive ever owned, because of the way it looks when its turned on. The 200mm chimney fan is a must have in newer cases because im running sub 40C temps in my case right now.

I P180 is quiet but the Solo is build to be quit. Yes everything will fix in either of those. Personally I find the solo to look smooth and classy where the P180 looks a tad flashy for my taste and WOW is the nine hundred trying to rip off the CM Stacker

trust me, its better than the CM stacker, the nine hundred has a huge 200mm fan on the top and two 120s right on the front that light up and they are wicked cool.

and the solo looks something like Lian Li cases, in the end everything looks like something else.
