Antec Nine Hundred Black Computer Case With Side Panel Window

Comment:
lots of space for what ever you may possibly want to place in the situation. the two usb and firewire are really nice placement. lots of air flow, i added a 120mm fan on the left side. 6 slots for the tricky drives cant beat that if you are worried about hard drive space. it is not a microwave it will not cook your food for you

The situation is well constructed, cooling is a plentiful. Side window :) top mounted usb and audio, looks superior! Dust accumulates speedily, not sufficient space for cables. Cable routing sucks! Fan connectors need to be the small three pin connectors rather of the molex connectors. Drive retention is practically stone age! seriously i have to get rid of at least 4-eight screws just to get the drive cages out plus the screws for the drives! That is unacceptable since quite a few toolless alternatives now exist, although it may not bother you if you don't transform or install drives a lot. Not significantly additional space in the case. If you want to install a lot more than two difficult drives and SLI then get a bigger case as it will be a nightmare to route the cables unless you have a energy provide with detachable cables. I purchased the personal computer on e bay and believed I would preserve this situation for the extended haul. Soon after developing in other cases I would select one thing slightly bigger and with a much more toolless design. When I upgrade I will obtain a various case!

This is a very nice case. The fan on top is massive. If anything, it's too big and can actually make your room too cold in the winter time. All the other fans are a big plus. When price matched at $100, this is a definitely no brainer must buy.

Comment:
fantastic design. really simple to work on. remarkable air flow. incredibly quiet (my challenging drives are louder than the fans on this case). adore the top rated mounted 1394 and USB ports and headphone/mic jack and mp3 holder. the window and blue leds are a bit too "moddish" for my tastes. i would have preferred that the energy and reset buttons were *not* on the leading of the case. doesn't make sense to me to have individuals so accessibile, especially considering they're correct close to the ports pointed out in the pros section. antec tends to make really high quality parts, and this is no exception.

Comment:
numerous points i like - outstanding space for many and numerous parts HDD's etc. Extremely lightweight for how massive it is taking into consideration how it looked in images - was pleased how light it was coming out of the case. A lot of other great pros, but its just a situation I and other gamers alike would have difficulty putting into words...its just a case I look at although windows boots up and nod my head and feel "mmm I adore this situation" Not any I can think of while glancing at this sexy case. Owned this case now for almost 6 months, the fans are excellent downstairs in the Den - Fire going the temp rises substantially and is countered by automated improve of speed for cooling purposes - don't have to modify or hold an eye on myself, and you don't even hear the fans unless it bumps up to at least medium speed.

Size is not also large, but nonetheless enough to get almost everything in there. Simple to cable handle depending on other hardware, and 4 fans (especially a 200mm) is always valuable. None. This month is the second time I've purchased this situation. 1st time, I sold that personal computer to get a laptop, and now I'm back to creating and this is my first decision.

Comment:
I'm pretty abusive with some of my gear, situation integrated. I have tripped on my head telephone cables far more than when which jerked the jack pretty difficult and it nevertheless operates. It is over a year later given that I purchased it and anything nonetheless performs. Due to the length of my video card (EVGA GTX260 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130370), I required to slide out the HDD cages in order to squeeze the card in. Its a longer card so I didnt deduct an egg, but I wanted to make certain people today were aware.

Comment:
What can I say about this situation but how significantly I like it. I bought this case pretty much 3 years ago for my 1st create and have given that upgraded the technique twice and the case has supplied sufficient area and air flow to help whatever I run in it. None... its not cost-free If you are looking for a case that can adapt to any develop this is the situation for you.

Fans. So a lot of fans. Almost everything inside stays nice and cool, and I have plenty of space for all my components. The bottom-mounted PSU helps keep the situation steady, and the blue LEDs make the complete assembly look really fairly. The fan speed manage switches are inside the situation, so make positive you have them set how you want them before you close the issue up.The front audio port on my situation does not let me plug in headphones/speakers all the way and they pull out far too quickly. It functions alright--just seems very shoddy. As always, Newegg rocks.

Comment:
easy use to install all drives,incredibly really fans,alot of usb ports with motherboard and case,good case for the price!Alot of fans with 3 speeds on all of them.Wife Loves the blue L.E.D. lights. Situation is kinda huge,but does the job for what I will need it for. I would get this again, Refer it to everyone.

Comment:
Quiet, properly ventilated, spacious, solid, desirable, a lot of alternatives for fans and drives, limited tools expected. Some greater cable management in newer cases, but seriously tough to argue with price tag/performance on this. I have purchased/built three systems with these now for my desktop, my son's desktop and our HTPC. Even placed subsequent to our Television the system is incredibly quiet even though cooling quad-cores (so we also do some gaming on the major screen - sue me). Even blue LEDs even though appealing for gamers are nonetheless subtle sufficient to not be a difficulty w/ television viewing. I doubt I'll ever own yet another desktop Pc w/o a 200mm fan as there is merely no comparison for volume of air moved per decibel.

Comment:
Keeps almost everything cool, looks excellent, plenty of space. Newer versions have internal mesh covering the fans I've heard. Use some zip ties and take some time routing your cables and the fans are a non problem. This is a excellent, properly built case.

Comment:
I have only used this model Antec due to the fact it's release for all my oc builds, in no way any difficulties. Everything fits, and cooling is more than adequate. None

Comment:
Great case. Went from a Sonata to this and on to a three hundred. Good cable management, easy setup, cools well, etc. Nothing bad to say.

Comment:
This case is pretty good. The fans it comes with keep the system cooled pretty well for air. I've put many different parts in the case and I've never had a problem fitting them in. Unfortunately, it's pretty difficult to manage wires if you have a lot of them, this might even affect airflow slightly.

Comment:
Huge interior. Properly completed edges. Nearly like operating in a hanger. The ports and switches on the prime are very flimsy. Its kind of strange that the leading of this situation is so weak when the rest of it is built like a battle ship

Comment:
I have nothing to say this item i like it so much that I might buy another one. Its a good price and good quality

Comment:
A lot big to fit every thing, cooling is impeccable, inside wire ties perform perfectly. The audio jacks on top are too significant to fit headsets. One size bigger and they don't even go inside. Have to use motherboard audio jacks in the back to even use a headset or speaker.It is a dust machine but thats only expected with all the fan POWER. I clean it as soon as a month. Been thinking about putting holes in a piece of Kleenex and screwing it in to catch some dust, but I'd have to raise the speed of the fans to maintain Ambient temperature down.

Comment:
this situation is great! it was a breeze to install all the componets! adore the 200mm fam on the prime! its actual good! Case has great airflow! on best of the supplied fans I have a corsair H50 push pull with a AMD 965BE 3.98ghz and one more antec fan for the side. Keeps temps in low 30s! a tad noisy tho but its my fault with 7 fans. the only con so far is the huge fan on the leading tends to make noise when its on low... like its unbalanced.

Comment:
I wanted to attempt this situation because my previous Sonata II case seemed to be acquiring hot. When operating factors like black ops and NBA 2k11 for pc temps cpu temps would get up about 70 C. (amd phenom x4 9850 black ed w/ a zalman cooler) The pc under no circumstances shut down or rebooted. This seemed a little warm on the other hand. My primary hd would also report 37c or so. After installing almost everything in this case. CPU temps haven’t got past 53c, and my most important hd is at about 30 c. I did not adjust the cpu cooler just put anything in this case. If you’re searching to cool your temps this is the a single for you. none

Comment:
I would recommend anyone who plan to build a computer with not a lot of high end gear because you don't have much spacing and eventually will cause the computer to over heat.

Comment:
I really like the manual fan switches inside the case. I see some comments referring to the fan being noisy, for those who do not know there is a few switches in the back to lower the fan speed which cuts back on the noise. The design is sleek and looks great, for a mid-case it is pretty roomy and housing all the components without difficulty from my experience. Overall this is a great mid-tower. It looks great and performs well.

Comment:
Good and sleek looking. Gets great airflow, and surprisingly the fans run rather on low (default). None. Incredibly, incredibly, prevalent case. If you go to a key LAN party, you'll almost certainly see ten to 20 of them there. But hey, it's a wonderful case, that's why it's so preferred!

Comment:
I can assure you that this case stays COLD, and I mean litteraly cold, if you equip it with a strong CPU cooler. I've been running the computer for 24 hours now and the case is still cold at 28C!And on top of that, it's smaller than my previous case which was a Thermaltake Soprano and had a much less efficient design for air evacuation and intake.I'd recommend it to anyone who wants to build a new system or simply wants to change cases :-)

I got it in 5 day. After 3 hours I pressed the begin button. So I got: technique with not too bad air flow, roomy, handy front panel and a vibrant night light for my room. Looks like a nuclear reactor :) Too sensitive start button, it's annoying. USB port to close to commence button is poor notion. It isn't actual cons, now I use it only for start off, my process "do nothing" when OS started out. Fans are as well loud. No matter high or low speed, identical loud. You can hear them 10 yards away. Not sufficient space for a cable management. If you planing to get a large video card, such as HD 5870 or GTX 285, this case not for you. HDD cables and video card will tightly to every single other like tires with a road. This case is real dust grabber, could contest with vacuum cleaner ( they exact same loud. Ah, I said that ) . I should to blow it each month. Unable to turn off LEDs on fans. Anyway, it's a great case. It is not actual Mid Tower by inside design ( it's the missing intermediate link in the chain of evolution Case ). But much roomy then Mini Tower and looks massive.
