Antec One Mid-Tower Gaming ATX Case Black 3X5.25 5X3.5 2X2.5 Front USB3.0 Top Rear 120MM Fans No PSU
Cons:-No removable front fan filter-No rear or top cable management holes (made connecting the 8-pin for me quite a reach around the GPU)-Front cover may sometimes lightly rattle-Brushed finish on case is not scuff proof-Punch out pci covers that cannot be replaced-Not quite enough room to comfortably stealth large PSU cables-With what looks to be only enough room for one 120mm front fan the option for a 140mm would have been nice-Lower case height prevents the ability to screw in the top case fan if you're using a motherboard with a larger heatsink at the top such as the MSI Z77A-G45

Pros:-Low cost-Sturdy metal construction-Black interior-USB 3.0-Removeable PSU fan filter-Reset button is out of the way-Small size allows for easy transportation-Fan placement is better than others in the 300 series-Hard drive bay loaded on the opposite side so you can still daisy chain your power cord if you want to stealth it
Comment:
If you can settle for imperfection the Antec One is a great entry level case. The Antec One gets almost all the fundamentals right. Obvious basic things like strong construction to more subtle things like rear HDD mounting, and even to OCD things like an all black interior on a windowless case! And while some things like screw in side panels or pull off faceplate might be a con to some people Antec keeps the cost down and makes the most of it with easy finger grip screws and a way to clean your front fan filter (if you bought a separate one!) without having to open the side panel. Antec seems to have thought of it all, almost... After installing my full gaming system and paying extra for nice aesthetics like LED fans and an FC9 fan controller, I was deeply disappointed having to resort to using ugly cable ties to secure my top fan to the top grill of my case. As a base for expansion the Antec One is a good deal allowing you to pick up whatever mods you may still want down the road. And though the One is designed to be small to save you money, but not too small as to hinder expansion, the slight oversight of some motherboards heatsink height was a huge disappointment to me. My final verdict would be not recommended for anyone planning an overclock capable build though with an asterisk*.

Antec One Mid-Tower Gaming ATX Case Black 3X5.25 5X3.5 2X2.5 Front USB3.0 Top Rear 120MM Fans No PSU
Cons:None for this price.

Pros:-Cheap on budget build-Lots of cooling options-USB 3.0 for the price-Construction is study-Tooless design
Comment:
I've used 3 of this with in the last 6 months. After rebate was $42 and for the price you can't beat that which includes USB 3.0. It's got lots of cooling options for fan and radiator mounts. The case is sturdy with all the cut out to route you wires. It's got a nice sleek look to it with simple clean lines. If you're looking to build a pc on budget and have a nice looking case too you can't go wrong. Highly recommended.

Good case for entry level, solid build quality, but one complaint is the ssd drive needs to be mounted on the bottom of the case where its screwed down from the outside of the case.

Antec One Mid-Tower Gaming ATX Case Black 3X5.25 5X3.5 2X2.5 Front USB3.0 Top Rear 120MM Fans No PSU
Cons:- one-time use expansion ports- tight

Pros:- frontal USB 3.0 ports- SSD bays - cheap- lightweight- dust filters
Comment:
This is a pretty solid case for the price you're paying for it. Very sleek, simplistic design that will appeal to many people on first look. Antec has stuck on many things that are quite valuable for an entry level case, such as the dust filters on the bottom air intake and the SSD bays below the HDD bays. Two USB 3.0 slots at the front and your standard microphone and speaker ports which are aligned horizontal, rather than diagonal. (which I personally love)Only gripes I can say is that it is a very tight case and that the expansion ports at the back are one time use. Other than that, pretty good.

Antec One Mid-Tower Gaming ATX Case Black 3X5.25 5X3.5 2X2.5 Front USB3.0 Top Rear 120MM Fans No PSU
Cons:None so far

Pros:Affordable, good cable management and air flow, light, simple.
Comment:
This simple and compact case was a perfect fit with my mid range gaming system. While not as flashy as the more expensive ones, it has everything you need for a gaming case. Get this if you are looking for a budget case with basic features. It comes with 2 pre-installed 120mm fans and you can add 2 more for maximum air flow.

Antec One Mid-Tower Gaming ATX Case Black 3X5.25 5X3.5 2X2.5 Front USB3.0 Top Rear 120MM Fans No PSU
Cons:-2.5" mounting system for SSD isn't great. My Mobo supplied SATA cables with 90° connectors. You can't plug them in when the SSD is mounted on the bottom of the case!

Pros:-Looks slick, not over the top like other gaming cases-USB 3.0 ports on the front!-Includes USB 2.0 adapter.-Fans included.-Quick mounting system for 3.5" drives.
Comment:
Great case for a great price. Looks nice and includes two fans. Having the USB 3.0 ports on the front is the reason I bought this case and I don't regret it. Can't go wrong for $35.

Antec One Mid-Tower Gaming ATX Case Black 3X5.25 5X3.5 2X2.5 Front USB3.0 Top Rear 120MM Fans No PSU
Cons:Mushy power button

Pros:Great Value, tool-less drive bays
Comment:
This case is a great value. I appreciate the bottom-mounted power supply spot, the two 120mm case fans, the cable management behind the motherboard, the tool-less drive bays. Two very minor issues:1.) I had a bit of difficulty getting the front panel off to put the DVD drive in. The instructions say to snap off just by pulling on it, but it doesn't just snap off without manipulating the tabs that hold it to the metal frame.2.) The power button doesn't have a satisfying "click" when pressed. I always feel like I'm not sure whether it turned on or not.But, overall this is a very good case and a great value.

Cons:Tight cable management behind mobo

Pros:Budget priceTooless bays2 Front USB 3.0 ports
Comment:
I'm a first time builder and this case was super affordable yet has 2 front USB 3.0 ports. The tooless bays made things very easy for me. I don't really have many complaints about this case. If I had to nitpick, I would say it's a little hard to squeeze a bunch of cables on the mobo side despite the outdented side panel. There are cable management holes as well. Otherwise, everything is roomy and fits nicely. This is a great buy, you can't go wrong with this case! It can go on sale for as low as $25 I believe.

Cons:If HD drive bay was movable you could fit longer graphics cards.

Pros:Antec quality for a low price. Looks great especially the angled side panels (functional too for side fans and cable management)
Comment:
Doesn't fit longer video cards. Example would not fit a reference 7970 due to the extra length of the heatshroud. Other thing to note the motherboard tray is not solid due to the cut out behind the CPU.

Pros:- Great value.- Solid construction.- Adaptor for USB 3 to USB 2.
Comment:
A great value case that supports USB 3. Lot of room to route the cable through the back panel for cable management. Tooless feature for 5.25" and 3.5" bays.

Cons:No noise insulation but for the price, don't expect to have it !

Pros:Lot of space, great built quality, 2 120mm Fans included.
Comment:
I am building computer for ten years and started to built them using this case in 2012. All I can say is that it's very easy to install the component especially for the DVD drive which does not need any screw.It also have a small 2.5" slot so you can install an SSD drive without having to use a drive caddy.For the price, you can't get any other case than this one.

Antec One Mid-Tower Gaming ATX Case Black 3X5.25 5X3.5 2X2.5 Front USB3.0 Top Rear 120MM Fans No PSU
Cons:-140mm bottom fan is poorly placed-hard drive cage is not removable, so some very large video cards will not fit.

Pros:-Price!-well designed-front usb-front audio-good airflow-nice hard drive cage
Comment:
I was leaning toward the Eleven Hundred case until I watched the Linus video about this case, and was really suprised at the value of this case. The reverse mounted hard drive cage is really nice, makes it very painless to route your cables behind the motherboard. And I do enjoy the mesh aesthetic. I now have it nearly fully loaded with 4 hard drives, 1 ssd, 1 optical drive, full size motherboard, 700w psu, max size video card, 120mm cpu cooler, and 5 case fans. My only real complaint with this case was that it says it supports a 140mm fan for the bottom intake, however if you're using a standard sized PSU it blocks the screw holes, so you're forced to use a 120mm fan. Not the end of the world, as I question the usefulness of a bottom intake anyway. Also make sure that your video card will fit in this case! the hard drive cage will block some extended cards. Overall, wonderful case!

Comment:
Defiantly a good case for the $35 sale price. Decent cable management. Did find the back panel hard to fit on after cables tied neatly - but was able to get it on after some fighting.The fans that come with the case are decent and rather quiet.Nice, black finish.Overall, if you don't care about filtering your intake - great case for a budget build ... I have bought two of these now :)

I purchased this case for a mainstream gaming computer I was building, and I am definitely happy with my purchase. Not only is it one of the most cost-efficient case I've had the pleasure to work with (at 29.99$), I actually prefer this one to my other Antec 900 case, as it looks more professional. Would definitely buy again.

Antec One Mid-Tower Gaming ATX Case Black 3X5.25 5X3.5 2X2.5 Front USB3.0 Top Rear 120MM Fans No PSU
Cons:- power supply mounted on bottom (both good and bad)- break away PCI slot tabs

Pros:- LOTS of drive bays- 2x 120mm fans included- Simple design- tool-less drive mounting- water-cooling grommets- rubber feet for the power supply to rest on- 2x USB 3.0 on front panel
Comment:
I must say, this is quite a package for such a great price. I've never experienced any 100$+ cases, but this one is everything I needed plus more.there's ample spacing tons of drives with even 2 mounting locations for the tiny 2.5" SSD drives. Everyting is tool less with the exception of the SSD mounts.the 2 120mm fans keep the case very very well ventilated and still keep the noise level at a minimum. there's also room for 2 more fans if need be(one in the front and one on the side panel)cable management is pretty simple where there's a decent size space behind the mobo to hide anything that's not needed in plain sight.obviously it will fit ATX and mATX motherboards which is always nice. One thing I noticed though was that the removable tabs where the PCI cards stick out the back have to be broken so you can't cover up that slot again if you pull out the PCI component.About the power supply, I love the idea of having it at the bottom of the case. firstly, a lot less stress on the mounting hardware, secondly, it sucks up fresh air from the bottom of the case instead of grabbing warm air from inside the case (the bottom actually has a dust filter so the power supply gets clean air). Third, there's rubber feet to lessen vibrations from the PSU also. The thing I don't like about the bottom mounting is that the 4 pin connector for the motherboard needs to reach all the way up to the top of the motherboard. I barely had enough cable to make it but it all worked out in the end.all in all, great case for the price!!
