Hopefully your IDE cables are long enough to reach your optical drives. I had that problem with a full tower case once.

Cheiftec is a manufacturer, Antec is a reseller. All Antec generally adds is an Antec power supply, and Antec case fans.

incorrect
antec is the developer (i did the engineering review for this case myself)
the plant that was producing these cases (in mexico) sold the drawings.
that producer has since been fired and antec has been moving to manufacture in house and assemble overseas.
 
just some useless trivia

it is geocities - they do not allow outside linking of file, just right click on the red x and get the direct url.
 
 
I assume then that alienware gets their cases from the same source... since those look like the cases alienware uses.

The case design is distributed by many companies and for good reason. It is one of the most versatile and useful cases on the planet.
 
I have several from Antec, One from Directron (A Matrix)and even a Chieftec model. The drive rails on all of them say Chieftec so there's your manufacturing answer. I don't care who distributed them as long as they are available.

As do mine, for my SX-830... Which lead me to believe what I said above. Anyhow, you learn something every day!

I tried several sites for these pics but damn it just wont have it, why doesnt this forum allow u to upload pis like most others. Maybe you guys can just copy the links to the pics into IE.
