  3. Removed the standard power supply plate on back of case to make room for the large CP850 ps.

    Installed the CP850.

    I will remove the opposite side panel on the case for cable management, then route any power cables I can behind motherboard in the special cable management section designed for this case.

  4. Looks like the P185 chassis has an optional opening where if you pick up other kind of power supplies (blowing air into the chassis) you can still us it too? That's pretty good!

    if you look into used computers bin you will see many returns from PowerSpec so I don't buy them.

  7. That is a great feature. Not limited to purchasing the Antec PS.
    The CP850 does have longer cables for better management routing but a I am sure you can do fine with a another model.

  9. Back access panel removed for easy cable routing in back of motherboard keeping everything tidy. Also better airflow reducing cables restricting good flow of air.
