Default time for a new case

well its been a few weeks from when i ordered my sig rig and the case i have now is a bit on the small side(i thought the price i paid for it, it would be HUGE, but i was wrong)....
so i need a new case.
at a local pc shop they have the p182 for 120 new so im thinking about that, but i have a question. i have a Silencer 750 will it fit the the power supply slot?!? the case i have now i had to take out one of the hdd bays for it to fit.

rep for any help.

Well I have a Silencer 610 and it is actually a pretty tight fit, but I don't know if the 750 is bigger.

When I say tight fit I mean everything fits good it just doesnt have any movement room at all, even the wires coming out the back only have like 1/2 inch clearance after taking out the bottom 120mm fan.

well, with the case i have now i thought it was roomy, but my psu takes up half of the bottom and from the looks of it the power supply slot in the p182 looks very small.

Yes the ANTEC900 (in my opion) is a better choice.

I was reading a review and I believe your PSU is too big (te review said only normal sized PSU's ft) and yours isn't normally sized

For cable management, the P182 is a much better choice. It has holes in the mobo tray for cables around the back, while the 900 does not.

But, I am biased...I have a P180 w/ the cable holes
