Antec Nine Hundred Black Computer Case With Side Panel Window

Comment:
Worth every buck (I bought it for $89.99), although the hard drive mountings could be better. If you want to install or remove a hard drive, you have to first remove the hard drive cartridge (which mounts up to 3 hard drives). That is quite troublesome, but an ordinary user probably gets to the hard drive at most couple times a year, so it's not that much of a problem. Also, I'm running 2 EVGA GTX 260's, but the cards are long enough to take up space near the hard drive cartridges, leaving 3 hard drive slots unusable.

I am absolutely in love with this case. Got it at a good price in a sale an I couldn't be happier. you just feel good knowing that it has good airflow inside keeping your hot parts safe. The fans are also fairly quiet. And the lights are always a topic of conversation when my friends come over!

This is a great case for 90$. The airlfow is great and the huge 230mm on top makes it even sweeter. The one problem is the dust which is fixed with the antec 902 case. In the end still a great case!

Comment:
This case got one of the best cooling i've experienced.Its not quiet but i dont care. Inside layout is not what i've call perfect, you can snuggle most of the thing you want but you'll need patience.Great case for single gpu with great air cooling.

This case is alright, I would have expected a little better from antec. I has a sort of cheap feel when you get inside. It's just big enough to accommodate an sli setup...I can't imagine trying to stuff a couple gtx 280's inside and then setting up a water cooling loop. With all of the fans set to low the is still a drone coming from it at all times.

Comment:
This case is cool in every sense of the word. My Cpu got from 60-70 degrees to 40-45 in game. And I always keep the 4 fans to minimum so the noise is not so a problem. Because of his aspiration and all the screws you have to remove to get to a HD, I consider this case to be High Maintenace.

Perennial favourite is a solid value at the current price, but for pickier builders the second generation version addresses most of the original's shortcomings (if you don't mind spending an extra $34). This review was modfied by poster @ 08-01-09 09:30 PM

This is a wonderful looking case with exceptional stock cooling at a nice price point. I added an additional fan to the side panel but all in all its been great. The fans are a little noisy, but I don't mind it. The case has a decent amount of room but I wish it had a little more.

I think its a good case for overclocking if air cooling.It provides good airflow.Things are alittle cramped with a big heatsink.I had to dremel the fan on the case door because I was using a Ultra 120 but it fits.

Comment:
It just arrived at my house a few days ago. So far so good. It may be a little too big for some people, since my old case was really small compared to this. Then again, it's desktop not a laptop it doesn't really matter. I would recommend it to anyone. This review was modfied by poster @ 05-02-09 10:58 AM

Great case and does the job well.The ventilation is really good. Fans in the front suck air in, and there is big fans at the back and top to help out as well.A little cramped for space with my extra large video card (Sapphire Radeon HD 4870 1GB), 4 SATA Hard drives and DVD. I have a feeling that my Power supply just came with too many wire cables as I am only using half of them (PC Power & Cooling Silencer 750 Quad CrossFire 750W ATX V2.2 EPS12 24PIN Active PFC Power Supply Red). Just take note that if you get this video card, then you won't be able to place a SATA HDD in the slot opposite without difficulty. Still there are 6 x 3.5 inch slots and 3 x 5 inch slots.I did pay for ncix guys put the whole thing together, though I had to redo most of it as I added 3 SATA Hard drives and eSATA to the mix.Still I think the only better option was the bigger Antec Twelve Hundred :-)I am extremely happy with it.

Overall this would be a good case if there were some things to hold the wire's. I always liked this case and I still do if there were some better cable management.

Comment:
Good case, i own 2 case like this one and the big cons are Dust and cable management. Otherwise, i like the design and the awesome airflow. Many people complaint about cable management but if you are creative just make 2 nice hole and everything is done! If you looking to do Water cooling i recommend 1200 or P182 but otherwise this case is awesome for all purpose. Fans are little bit loud at Medium speed.Recommended

Comment:
Don't buy this CASE! It sucks! Bad cable arrangement. You need pull every single cable across the whole Motherboard.Cables will cover your CPU, Display Card etc., block air flows. Whoever design this case go to hell!

Comment:
This case provides good airflow for i7 920. However, there is no filter and it may be too big for people for basic setup.

Comment:
All in all it is a beautiful case, i dont need anything higher than low, and i plan on buying 2 more antec fans to finish it up :). Beauty

Comment:
Bought it during boxing week at a great price.It's a great sturdy case. Only problem is that the headphone gets a lot of interferences.

Comment:
I bought this case, as I heard good things about it. The top USB ports have come in handy for me, as I have a potable harddrive and I can easily plug it. Copy what I need to copy. Same with with my camera. I only thing that bothered me was, I have big hands and trying to get the cables neat as possible, but I can't blame the 100% for this one. The 2 front fans, are always dusty. Gotta clean them every 2nd day. Therefore I vacuum every 2nd day too. Besides that, I like the case very much. Would I buy this case again? Yes I would.

Comment:
All the weaknesses are being addressed and revised into the new nine hundred two case. Excellent case for its looks, airflow, and functionality.

Comment:
Bought it when it was $70 with free shipping during the Cyber Monday sale. It's a really good case except that it feels cramped since I came from a full tower case.

Comment:
I really have to say I like this case, It's nice and easy to work with (size wise not cable management). I don't believe in having to use a saw to make a better path for my cabling. A case like this that is marketed for gaming communities should think of this when they designed it. While it keeps everything nice a cool, it does attract dust like no tomorrow.

Comment:
nothing to bring home on this one. It was only ~50$ on sale. The front microphone/headphone jacks have alot of interference. After some research I found out it was a quite common problem because of the way the wires were arranged and tied up? something to do with the grounding wire. Nevertheless, the jacks are unimportant to me personally and the case has good cooling =] A bit on the small side though.

Comment:
The best value case you can get, whether you want good stock air cooling, or a decent overclocking air cooling solution. You can't go wrong with the Antec Nine Hundred.

Comment:
I bought this case for $70 during a sale and i just love the case. Its got great air flow and keeps the temperature 4 degrees lower than my previous case.

Comment:
This was my first time purchasing a case, and I must say, I'm impressed. The fans keep everything so cool that my legs end up being freezing all the time. Setting stuff up inside the case was no problem, there was a lot of room for everything.
