Workstation Computers For heavy office use and executive quality Very clean cable management for air-flow

Most of these photos show the insides of quality systems. I use 4 different chassis depending on budgets and needs.
Antec 300 more info $60
Antec Solo more info $100
Antec P183 more info $160 or Antec Mini P180 more info $80
Mozart Tx more info $280

This workstation is taller than it looks in this photo. The older workstation next to it, is actually very large and
also HEAVIER than the new computer. The Mozart TX is a $250~300 chassis, challenging and roomy.
Why? Because it has windows on both sides, so hiding the cables requires work. Does come without Windows.


Here is a photo from the side. It has 4 air chambers. So the motherboard two
large fans all to itself. The drives have their own (on top) which can be tricky since
they are far away motherboard. The PSU and a 2nd motherboard are on other side.


Close-up view of the computer area, lots of space for any motherboard!


The other side. You see a lot more cables, but this side is not viewed by people.
still, best to tidy up the area. Notice the LONG blue IDE cable for the DVD drives.
PSU is the popular Corsair 650TX.


An Executive type system. The bottom doors are air-vent covers with filters.
Most cases (especially high end) that we use, have filters. The case is an Antec P183.


The inside of the Antec P183. PSU is below in its own air-chamber. Not many cables.


Because the P183 has cable channels on the other side! Better than going over cards.
These power cables go to the motherboard, drives and cooling fans.


This Intel Core2Quad is in the low-cost, but nice Antec 300 (Three hundred).
It comes with two large cooling fants with one of them on top, creating great air-flow
while making little to no noise.


Like many cases today (2008+), the PSU is on the bottom, which is good and bad.
Okay with quality PSUs which come with long cables. Plenty of room in this standard
size Antec 300 chassis.
CPU is an intel Core2Quad, 8GB DDR2-800Mhz, RAID 1 1-TB HDs.
Video card is the ATI 4350, this is a workstation built for speed, not playing games.

I use the Antec 300 for both work / basic / gaming PC builds. It looks nice,
low costs ($50~60) and does a great job of keeping everything cool.
