Antec Three Hundred Black Computer Case

Comment:
I bought the Antec 300 case on boxing day for 39.99. They had it 10 dollar cheaper at another store, But it was after a 20 dollar MIR which I rather save the money now. This case is pretty amazing. I have a Antec 900, and this case is like a smaller version of it, (and in my opinion, much easier in terms of installing hard drives and stuff, cause you don't have to pull out the container thing on for the drives on the antec 900. Excellent for its size quite roomy. Looks slick and legit.

It's a great case for the price. I like the look of it and how it doesn't stand out with clear side panels or blue lights etc. It does its job well and I would buy another.

First case I ever bought, I installed all the optional fans, as a result of this, it got dusty often. Good cheap basic case for anyone who doesn't want something too flashy.

Comment:
Well, I bought this because my friend thought it was better looking than the HAF 912 from Coolermaster. It is kinda nicer but that's the only strength of this case I can find. Right now there's no reason at all to get this case over a HAF 912 (I own one of these as well), it just can't compete at all on a ton of points : cable management is practically inexistant, the way the psu is mounted is kinda sad, cooling possibilities aren't that great either. Maybe this was the reference case for its price point in the pass but right now I just can't recommend it.

Best budget case I know of, my favorite for most builds, saves money, good fan expandability. Great look, and did I mention, very good price for build quality? Cable management is minimal, but does the trick for most builds!

The quality is superb, the design is sharp and leaves a modder or regular user an empty pallet for many possibilities.The only issue I see is that there can be better cable management, which its ok but higher priced cases have much better hide-aways. Also the interior would look much nicer black. I hope Antec re-releases another Antec 300 with both of those and USB 3.0 as any price gain would be definitely worth it for the superior build quality of the 300.ROCK SOLID!!! VERY IMPRESSED.

i've built several rigs with this case for friends and family , it provides decent cooling at a very low price , it would be nice if it came with better cable management options but what do u exspect for $50

Great case, would recommend it. 9.5/10Amazing case, keeps my athlon 2 x4 635 at 16 degrees idle, and my 5700 at 30 degrees idle, with a room temp of 20 degrees.

It is probably one of the best looking cases I ever bought. For the price you pay, you get a ton of value.Even though this case is pretty old, when you compare it to the HafX 912 (which is of similar price), it still has the better cooler and same noise levels. So even to today's standards it is one of the best mid-ATX's you can buy =)

Comment:
Good case. The price could be a bit lower as it doesn't have that many features. But the build quality is amazing. Good for home/medium gaming builds.

I've built about 4 or 5 computers in these cases and it's all turned out well. All the components fit, and while the longer graphics cards like the GTX 280 do fit, they have almost no clearance on the right side where the hard drives are, forcing you to move your hard drives down. There's also nothing in the way of cable management, so you'll have to get creative. Personally I like cases that don't have a bunch of extraneous things like carrying handles, LED fans, side windows, etc, and this case fit the bill perfectly. Extremely reasonable price too. Thumb screws are cool.

bought this for my first modern day comp (previous towers had been rubbish celerons/semperons with less than 100GB and less than 766MB of RAM :S) build and was a bit nervous that cable managment would be a problem due to people saying it was very small inside...COMPLETE LIES! this tower has plenty of room for cable management (alongside the drive bays theres a giant space for cables) plenty of hard drive bays (its able to hold SSD drives too, despite me not having any), it prevents much dust getting into the case with the grill on the front, which pops off and you can take the dust tray out and clean it with ease, though you do likely want to stick a fan in the side grill to prevent dust from floating in there...the fans on top and rear are fantastic and helped the crap stock heatsink alot, bit noisy at setting 3 on both, I keep the rear at 3 and the top at 2 and its just a smidge of noise inside my deskthis is definitely the case you want if you want an affordable case in your build, allows for plenty of upgrading and cable management, would purchase again and highly recommended!

Good case if you want good quality while saving money. Not recommended if you're into really fancy aesthetics.

Comment:
Bought this case for my new build, let me tell you, this isby far the best case for the price, it's cheap and efficient,to anyone who's looking for the "best bang for their buck"this is the case for you. I would recommend to anyone, and would buy again.

Comment:
Very good budget case. Works as advertised, quite a bit of room to add whatever components you need, fits a Coolermaster 212 with enough room for side fan.Looks even nicer with two front LED fans.Keep in mind you need to add 2-3 fans for decent airflow so depending on the cost, you may be better off getting a more equipped case.

Comment:
This is probably the best case I've ever used. I have 2 and they are still working great. It's a cheap and sensible solution for all your cooling needs. You can't go wrong with this case, its utterly impossible.Just be imaginative with cable management :D

Comment:
this is second time buying this case. I already bought one and its still looks awesome. I highly recommend this case for M-atx boards with basic specs. I can really load this thing up with 120mm fans.

Comment:
if you're looking for a good mini or mid case, go for this one. there's no diffirence between a mini and mid... this one looks great and i feel that i have something of quality. i recommend it to everyone who has a budget.amd x4 phenom 965msi 790fx-g70msi cyclone 7682x2gb ocz 1333seagate barra 1tb600w psu oczantec 300

Would only recommend for a budget build or somene who isn't picky. Would recommend in certain cases.

Comment:
big case, cheap. optional 2 fans in front and 1 side are great for extra cooling and moving air to help keep hard drives and gpus cool. psu goes on the bottom

This is my go-to case for almost any build and in particular silent/quiet machines. I have two of these in my office.. one server and one workstation. I really like the simple clean design compared to the "gamer" cases out there. Simple functionality at a low price is the name of the game here.No frills means cable management takes some thought and there are no fancy drive mounts but thumb screws are tried and tested. The included 120mm and 140 Antec Tri-Cool fans are pretty lousy so I always remove them. The horizontally mounted 140mm in particular is very noisy at any of the three settings. I usually leave the top fan out instead use 3-4 good quality 120mm fans.A welcome revision to the design was the addiction of a 2.5in mount at the bottom of the case for SSDs etc.. and more importantly the motherboard tray now has an opening cut into it so CPU heatsink backplanes can be installed and removed without needing to remove the motherboard from the case.

Really nice case providing everything you're looking for and more for a great price.. Even though it's advertised as Mini tower, it's comparable if not bigger than some other (cheap to mid-priced) Mid tower models, while offering more features, for about the same price :)

Comment:
nice case for a budget case i would have to say this case cools very well especially if you have graphics cards to cool this case is a definite winner

Comment:
The case is great, very easy to set up everything inside, and the airflow is excellent. For the price, it can't be beat!The only issue I have is the hard drive spinning makes a little noise (as opposed to other mounting methods)...but all that will be cured once I get an SSD

It was a steal when i bought if for 40$ and the design is beautiful. i bought 3 extra 120 mm red LED fans and the system looks even better
