    Sobre Antec P183

    Hola,

    Estoy considerando seriamente comprar una Antec P183 por los reviews favorables que he visto, pero antes de comprarla quiero ver qué tiene que decir Antec sobre el problema con el ventilador superior que se puede ver aquí:

    The P183 shipped with two 120mm Antec TriCool fans installed in the rear and top placements with manual 3-speed switches attached to the back of the case. When we turned them on we noticed immediately how much louder the top fan was. The top-mounted fan measured 5 dB higher when set to low and medium speed, and 7 dB higher at high speed — the rear fan was completely drowned out. When the two fans were removed and allowed to spin in free air, they sounded identical, so it was clear the problem lay in the fan mount.


    Top fan placement from the inside.

    At the top of the case, cutouts in the metal allow air to pass through. We believe the remaining metal outline of the fan hub and struts is the reason the top fan sounds so much worse when mounted compared to the rear fan. As a result, the top of the case vibrates heavily when a fan is mounted in this position. Why a complete circle wasn't cut instead is a mystery — there is absolutely no reason to leave a metal tracing of the fan structure. In addition, as the top panel of the case cannot be removed, and there is little clearance between the metal and the plastic grill above it, cutting this piece out will prove problematic. Decoupling the fan would certainly help, but this is also no easy task, as only one side of the fan is secured with screws. The other side has two metal tabs that keep the fan flush against the metal surface. This is an odd annoyance in an otherwise well evolved case.
    Gracias por adelantado.

    Parece que el ventilador estaba defecuoso. La solución es simple. Si "tuvieras" ese mismo problema con esa caja, te mandaríamos un ventilador nuevo.
