[Hot] Antec NSK4400 for $24 NO MIR - YMMV!!!

[alceryes]

May be regional only but Best Buy's in my area are clearing out the Antec NSK4400's for only $24!!! I bought this same case about 6 months ago for $68...:rolleyes:

The newer Antec case has some cosmetic differences but is basically the same thing. The power supplies in these cases are damn good for only 380W (SU-380). I've got a C2D OC'd to 3.03Ghz and a X1950XT OC'd in the one I bought 6 months ago and it's been running perfectly ever since.

Yes, I'm an employee, but as you can see I didn't save anything on the Antec.

Edit - SS

What region are you from? I'm going to hit up a Best Buy and check it out.

[alceryes]

I'm in Miami, FL.

[creamypie]

Scored 2 today for $17 and change each after tax.

Could you please post your locality to properly gauge availability?


Good score, I will swing by after work tomorrow. Good case once you apply some modifications to improve the lackluster cooling.

Nice price. How are these different from the NSK4480?

[alceryes]

A quick check of Antec's website show them to be exactly the same. We've got the 4480B in the store, I'll have a closer look tomorrow...

[tmaxxking1]

The specs on newegg are a tiny bit different

the 4400 is disco and the 4480 seems to be a little larger

[PhantomFelix]

The PSU in the 4480 is 80+, and it comes in black now.

[Smititty]

Picked up one at the Merrillville Bestbuy. $16.95 after tax is pretty sweet.

They had two but I figured I'd leave one for someone else seeing as how I don't even need the one.

[senpai]

havent found one yet :(

Manhattan NY , there was 1 left on the floor, I left it for others who might need one.

Isn't the 80+ just referring to efficiency rating?
This PS has always had an efficiency rating between 80-85%, even in the 4400.

These Best Buy clearances are becoming a regular event. :) I think we need a new abbreviation for them, like BBCI (Best Buy Clearance Item).

They may be a regular event, but 3 stores out of 100+ having a clearance is not the best chance at getting a good price.

I don't know, I'm 2/2 right now. I wanted some 750GB drives, and I got more than enough. I wanted some DiNovo's, and I got plenty (which reminds me, I need some room now :(). I'm sure I could have gotten some Wonder650's, but I wasn't interested.
I just need to decide how much I need this case and power supply, when I know full well it'll be the red-headed stepchild in my computer room.

I bit and picked one up in Astoria, NYC (on Northern Blvd). It was 17.33 with tax (15.99). I had checked the Best Buy in Queens, NYC (on Queens Blvd) but there were none in stock.

Edit: There were none left in the Astoria Best Buy.

[sabrewolf732]

going to check my bb today

I saw that one, didnt want to take it since the box was opened and the bottom left corner is pushed in. ;)

[gramarye]

for bay area, california people, checked local best buys for this case. Stopped by 4 today (happened to pass each one, no joke), only got my hands on one. I'd love a black one instead, but it's going for $90. The silver version, 4400, is in fact $15.99 brand new, no rebate, the total came out to be $17.31 with tax. I asked to check listings for availability to report back for you guys. San Francisco has 2 available, Marina has 2. I went to East Palo Alto, Mountain View, Sunnyvale, and Milpitas. I believe 1 more left for each. Good Luck.

Anyone managed a black one at this price?

[dranom]

i went to my local BB here in orange county cali.
to be specific in metro point and they have a 4400 black but doesnt have price on it.
the customer service is being a ass and too lazy to check so i didnt get a price. ill check other BB tomorrow to see. pretty good case for the price!

[alceryes]

Damn, I thought $25 was a good price. It seems that every other store but mine has'em for $16!!!

[interested]

Anyone see these in Canada? :eek:

I just got my free $5 rewards certificate and this would be awsome to spend it on

( see free forum for how to get your own $5 rewards certificate, if you live in Canada)

[gilga]

im in colorado and will report back soon with results

[jakeklem]

I just called and Monroeville, Pa has 1 left for 48.99. I want cheap stuff too :(

[slickmitch]

Here in Dallas the Oak Cliff store has/had 4 silver and 2 black for 15.99. I grabbed both black and was about to leave and noticed they had the 900 for 79.99. I grabbed both the 900s instead.

what is the model number for the black case you got? 4400b? or, even better, the best buy item #? thanks in advance.

Good luck, for most of us here in So Cal these deals are a complete Joke. All I do is lose money for gas trying to find them. Every time I ask CS they laught at me. I told them the 750Gb IDe drives were like $58 or whatever they were and the price tag there said 250+ they just laughed....Same thing when I went looking for the keyboards....I'm not even going to bother driving around to calling around for this one.

The BB sku is on the receipt pic in my original post - 8013357

hmm, my receipt has the same sku as you, but my case is black/silver, a black/black would be nice, can't seem to even find it online either. thanks for the reply.

I never said I got the black/black one. The black/black one is the newer model and is not on sale. The only difference is the color. Everything else (including PS) is the same. I agree that the black/black one looks nicer but for $24 (or $17) the black/silver one is a much more attractive product.

[purple_haze]

shit im probably gonna check bestbuy in the coming days just to gather some parts for a future htpc.

[curtisfong]

$17.xx after tax

[Reanimation_LP]

Picked one up at Arundel Mills in Hanover MD today.

28.99 + tax.

I still bit, as its a nice case, and I was hankering for it back when I worked for the company, and could have gotten it for 66 employee price.

If the price drops again, I'll see if they'll match.

The guy who rang me up was annoying as fuck. He sat there for 5 minutes, reading the box over, when I was in a rush as I had dinner in the oven. :mad:

And then hes like "We sell these?" YEAH.

[dranom]

$17.xx after tax

thanks man! i picked it up. i also picked one up from bb costa mesa. they have it for 28 but i showed the $17 receipt and they honored it:D:D:D

time to mod it!!!!

[Modred189]

BBY in Rochester Hills MI has it for 28 (and by 'it' I mean ONE)

[DryFire]

Mine has 2, but at something like $80. Guess that's what I get for living in a small city :/

[purple_haze]

they sold out of those cases at bestbuy, the only ones they have now are the generic pos dynen ones.

Not to mention the fact the POS Dynen ones cost more that almost any case I've ever seen. I need to leave corporate and go back into business for myself. :p The only problem is that I never had the heart to stick it to the suckers and I always did em right.

Those Dynex cases arent actually that bad.

Pretty well built, comes with an 80MM fan, and a decent 350w PSU.

I mean, its not gonna blow you away, but its fine for a non-gaming PC.

I bought quite a few and upgraded friends old crappy OEM cases back when I worked at BB. I think they were 34 a pop.

You could got to the website, then add it to your cart and then check for local availability to save you from stopping at every store near you.
