TechPowerUp check out the Antec Nineteen Hundred PC case, one of the largest that Antec produce:

So let me point out what may be obvious to some: the Antec Nineteen Hundred is essentially a pimped-up cross between the P280 and Eleven Hundred with the addition of a bottom compartment. Ignoring the fact that the Nineteen Hundred looks nothing like the Eleven Hundred or Three Hundred in terms of design, it seems as though the Nineteen Hundred is a trying to go for what some may consider a worse price/performance ratio.
While the Eleven Hundred clocks in at around 80 euro, featuring fewer USB ports and only 2 fans, the P280 offers a smaller set of USB 3.0, but three fans out of the box for 100 euro. So Antec is essentially trying to sell you the bottom compartment, two USB 2.0 ports, and 3 fans for a 70 euro premium. This is, unfortunately, too much, and lowers the Nineteen Hundred's price/performance ratio, especially considering Antec has not updated the interior in any way except for its colored elements.
