Antec Twelve Hundred Black Computer Case With Side Panel Window

Comment:
slick design and style, heavy duty, and a lot of open space can be a little noisy simply because of all the fans

Comment:
-Oodles and oodles of space, I was able to shove in anything I had with room left to spare.-I really like the lights, some say it's also bright, but to me it isn't so terrible.-Appreciate the fans, and their location operates so in sync with every little thing, in particular with my heatsink. None really I just appreciate this case, it's going to be with me for a incredibly incredibly long time.

This is the case that will satisfy tech savvy buyers for all your upgrade needs including that extra long length video card that you hesitated of buying because you were afraid if it might not fit in your case. Overall an excellent choice for custom PC builders.

Pretty significantly everything about this case is good. Additional expansion slots than you will ever use, fantastic airflow and plenty of cooling fans for the hardcore gamers. Also, there is adequate space for all of those large new video cards....even SLIed cards. The ONLY point that I didn't like much better in this case than my old ANTEC case is that the dust filters on the front (while excellent) don't just pop out for cleaning....you have to take off the side of the box and slide out the hardware sections to get the filters out. Most of the time I just spray the front with compressed air and get in touch with it excellent.... Great case for gamers...I hugely recommend it. You can place whatever you want in it and have space to spare.

A lot of spaceTons of airflow - even with a full workload, there's been no noticeable buildup of heat.Blue LED fans are good to appear at Bottom mounting a power supply is annoying, but not a deal-breaker. The added weight of a power provide higher in the case would in all probability leave the case tipsy, so the bottom mount is essential.One particular of the USB ports doesn't operate. Could have been hooked up incorrectly, but I don't will need an additional port so it's not worth looking into.

Fans....quiet fans...lots of them. Capacity is crazy Higher. Certainly incredible cooling capability. Stout case...not light in any way. Filters on 3 front fans. This case is top rated notch in each way even if you liquid cool. Yeah....right. This case is the by far the most incredible case I have ever had the pleasure of functioning (playing) with. It was flat-out a blast to develop this machine making use of this case.

Comment:
It is attractive case and I like it cuz it lots space for the hdd and also neat for the cable. It is little heavy but it is not large deal!

Comment:
Has lots of harddrive spaces! (Only purpose I bought it)and a good quantity of fans, for good airflow. Not that major, and not that considerably room to do a excellent cable management with 9 difficult drives in it. Was kinda tricky to get the H70 in this, but right after I thought about how I must to it, it went in quite fantastic.

LargeWonderful coolingLooks coolGreat cable managementA lot of space for giant CPU fan/heatsink It's a discomfort to add/remove tough drives - have to take away each side covers, 4 thumb screws, pull out HDD rack, and take out HDD screws.

Good situation, has all the room you could ever want for todays demands, plus space for expantion. It has lots of fans for air flow to retain your process cool. Sturdy, well built situation, Thumbs up all the way. My only area I can get in touch with a con, I am missing the side fan, and one for the internal placement. I'm not even sure that 1 is integrated truly. But with all the other fans, its nonetheless a effectively ventalated case. Make the move, its a fantastic case, a small substantial, but I wanted a huge case.

Comment:
This factor is Large...with tons of space and good cable management. It came with a lot of extra screws and fantastic instructions. I did a lot of investigation prior to paying for this situation and it lives up to its hype. It is quite easy to function on and really should final for years. I also truly like that fan speeds can be adjusted. Heavy...but what do anticipate with a full towerYou have to take the side panel off to get the dust filters out to clean them. I don't like this feature but its more of an annoyance then something...and I nonetheless advocate the case The only other case I would think about switching this a single for is the Corsair 800D

Plenty of space for anything and every little thing. You could just about fit a kitchen sink in there.The engineers that designed this seriously had cable management in thoughts. There's spots where cables can actually be ran behind the motherboard. This is good for all the cords coming from the case, which generally plug in to the bottom of the motherboard.All-in-all, I've by no means observed a case with a motherboard that was so accessible. The energy connector is literally the only cable that runs across the motherboard. Every thing else is neatly organized and out of the way.The case itself is extremely solid construction. It ought to stand the test of time quite nicely. It appears that you can't turn all the fan lights off. I truly wish you could. I'm putting mine in a closet although, so it doesn't really matter. The blue lights appear really good, even though.The "cleanable air filters" aren't that accessible, requiring that you take away both side panels, take away 8 added thumbscrews, and then slide out the tough drive cage, which is practically certainly connected to power for the fan.The case comes with a fantastic deal of hardware, but a few spares couldn't hurt. Specially for the external thumbscrews. Lose these and you're either getting much more or working with regular screws. I also lost a couple of the internal thumbscrews, which matters less due to the fact you don't will need to fasten the hard drive cages with a full 8 screws. Still, spares would be good. Expect this case to be really significant and kind of noisy. I don't look at this a con, due to the fact that's what I was searching for.

Working with this with a CP850 matching PSU. Also added thge tricool fan for the GPU vent and the aux vent. Cools so fantastic my son bought a single as effectively. He games with a GTX295 incessantly and runs icy cold. No USB three. for the front. Perhaps they will refesh this in 2011. Other than that no cons. Had a dragon rig with Antec Overall performance max in this case over a year. Just upgraded to an I7950 w/Asus Sabrtooth. So cold I utilised the stock HSF. Does that inform you one thing? Really like my 1200. The only other case worth speaking is the HaF X. This is more affordable ATM.

Purchased this due to the fact of the washable dust/lint screens.Massive, roomy, great for expanding and keeping future choices open. will fit almost something.Had adequate room for cable management of non-modular Corsair 850TX (good psu with wayyy too quite a few cables).6 stock fans, 9 (or possibly eight) total attainable fans. Fan speeds can be controlled (Low Medium and High settings for rear fans and dial knobs for front fans)Sturdy, top rated MP3 player/accessory tray a plus only the top rated LED can be turned off. the other LEDs are Extremely vivid when new. with extra dust accumulation, they will dim, but there must have been an selection to turn off all LEDs. I will tinker with the case and do a thing about this myself.The PSU is bottom mounted, which tends to make it not possible to hide the 8-pin CPU energy connector behind the board. its the only piece of wire going across my board. fits the following configuration with a LOT of room to spare:-full ATX motherboard with stock CPU fan (will fit the largest coolers on the market also. currently researching that).-2x EVGA GTX 460-2x 3.5" HDDs-2x optical drives

Initially Complete Tower case and I couldn't be a lot more pleased. Tons of space and uncomplicated set up. Looks astounding. You will want to purchase a side fan... This was my initially upgrade to a complete tower from a mid tower case style and I will never go back. I'll almost certainly maintain this for years to come upgrading and changing out the parts.

Comment:
Additional space for drives mainly because of extra height vs mid towers. Width and length is identical as Antec 900묞 series instances, which for me is very good due to my limited desk space. To the common wife, this case looks quite considerably like the Antec 900 so you could pull off a stealth upgrade. Lovely Antec craftsmanship with just adequate space for clean wire management, but you will need to have to take your time when organizing wires. Bolt on water cooler friendly case and there are radiators created specifically to bolt up clean inside. Tons of fans for air cooling if you choose that route, and tons of blue led lights so you won't be afraid of the dark. This case will hold most if not all video cards, but you might shed some spots for drive space due a longer card ending up in a drive bay. Due to extra height of this tower, I was at the limit of my PSU cables on my Antec EA 650. Operates wonderful with my Corsair HX850 modular PSU even though! I wanted to replace my Antec 900 mid tower with a total tower, but I did not want my wife to give me grief. This made my options pretty restricted. Antec 1200 was stealth enough for me to get and have my wife stroll by with no a clue. The added size provides me possibilities for more drive space.

Lots of space, lots of fans, air filters! None I would purchase a hundred more of these if I had to. Air filters will be a must for my from now on.

With all that space on the inside, I don't expect I'll ever run out of space to put stuff. I may well even be able to fit a few school textbooks in there and still have room for some SLI or Xfire action. I can't in all honesty see what I would possibly need all of this cavernous space for inside a personal computer, but I like getting it. I yell into it and I think I hear my voice echo, and it's a very good feeling. Certainly I could build a property inside the gargantuan confines of this box and dwell within it. I might be exaggerating a tiny, but my point is clear. The cable management program is worthy of becoming deified, and the noise all six fans make is minimal so lengthy as they're not turned up to max RPMs. You have a selection among whisper quiet and maelstrom. Oh, did I mention that I'm 99% certain it's bulletproof? It's built like a tank, and would possibly survive fairly a couple of drops from a second-story window. Add a pull-out mobo tray and tool-less tough drive slots, and I consider I'm in really like. Cons get a bit nit-picky. First and foremost are the LEDs. I don't thoughts them generally, but it's a bit difficult attempting to sleep in the same room with the Computer running. The fans are practically silent at slower speeds, but the lights! Argh, the lights! Thankfully the top rated LEDs turn off, but be ready to replace some fans if you're not huge into the whole flashy thing. Also, when I received the situation one particular of the front USB connector shells was bent. Nothing at all a rapid twist with a flathead screwdriver couldn't repair, but it did handle to short out the mobo the moment before I caught it. The power button is responsive, but the reset switch could be a little as well significantly so. I merely brush against it and the factor reboots. Oh, and not to mention the weight. It's heavy enough as-is, but plop into it a quality PSU and, let's say one of these two oz. copper Gigabyte mobos and we're speaking 50 pounds just about. Lifting it becomes less a chore and more a job requirement. I didn't have space in either my pros or cons section to list the washable filters, although I ought to say that they fit well in each. They do lessen dust receiving into the personal computer, but not absolutely defend against it. It's a bear to remove them but cleaning is a cinch. The dust buildup serves as a visual reminder of when it's time to clean the Pc. When it starts to get ugly, it's time for a teardown. And I Mean teardown. All 24 thumbscrews holding the drive bays in location have to come out just to get to them.It is my earnest and most heartfelt belief that, had been this situation to collide with a Mack truck I believe the situation would come out victorious. It looks rather awesome if you take effectively to the complete matte black and glowing blue beehive look it sports, it's create to withstand anything but a direct nuclear assault, and it weighs twice as substantially as the M1 Abrams tank. Combine that with a roomy interior most luxury sedans would envy and you've got a genuine winner.

Keeps anything extremely cool.Tons of space for added drives.Nice back panel to hide all your wires.Filters for the front fans. (Those support me a ton since I have a dog that sheds fur everywhere, and they keep it from getting into my technique.It's major enough to fit virtually any giant heat sink. It's massive and heavy. I don't mind that at all, but some people may possibly.Adding new drives is type of a discomfort, so if it's something you do typically it will almost certainly aggravate you.It's type of pricey, but worth it. Make positive you have a PSU with lengthy cables and lots of connectors.I won't have to acquire an additional situation in a extremely long time. If newegg/Antec ever stops promoting this point they are crazy.

Have had this bad boy for two years and 1 month and is nonetheless kicking robust. Tons of fans, nice blue led lights all over the place. Knobs in the front to adjust fan speed as well as little switches in the back for the major fan and 2 fans in the back. 3 convenient air filters that trap a nice amount of dust in the front. Tons of room! :D If you want to get rid of the front shields and take out the air filters, it can be a pain and time consuming given that you have to take off both side plates and unscrew the gazillions of silver screws that hold the brackets in place. Since it's such a big case, it's sort of heavy. And doesn't have the very best of grip spots for your fingers to grab when wanting to transport / flip it about or what not. But whatever.

Quite spacious Lots of air circulationPainted black interior genuinely makes elements stand outBlue LED lighting is nicely completed Side window could be greater to show off the interior a bit a lot more. Overall, a good full-tower case.

The situation is really significant, albeit a tad heavy (even with absolutely nothing in it). But that weight comes mostly simply because the situation is mostly made of Quite STURDY STEEL (as the Newegg's name listing indicates).It's wide open inside, a virtual prairie for all of the other parts to graze across. The motherboard—an ASUS M4A79XTD EVO—fits very effectively with absolutely nothing even close to crowding it. I also have a KINGWIN Mach 1 1220W PSU with a lot of room and even an XFX Radeon HD 5870 (a behemoth video card), all fitting nicely with plenty of space to spare.Cable management is wonderful, given that there is some space in between the internal and external walls, with squarish holes offered for feeding them by means of. This keeps all but the power ྴƲ pin main) and 12V cables Ɣ-pin) out of the way for greater airflow and cooling.(OK, I have a couple of LED cable extensions on major too. Oh, and looking via the clear side at what's within looks so a lot far better without all the cables, too.) I talked about this is heavy, appropriate? Lol. 32 lbs. ྮ.5 kg) of monster ready to take anything you want to place inside.The only other factor I can believe of is that the Power LED cable is on the Leading of the case, but the PSU mounts to the BOTTOM. ? A small odd, but with a couple of extensions purchased (for maybe ŭ each and every), this "problem" is simply solved. This is an amazing situation. It has SIX fans Ɠ intake in front, 120mm every single; two exhaust in back, also 120mm every single; and 1 exhaust on leading, 200mm) to hold it ultra cool, in addition to whatever internal cooling you may possibly have going.On top rated of the front, there are two USBs an eSATA, and a headphone and classic mic jack. Furthermore, you have water cooling hose holes on the back. Also, the fans have little knobs for adjusting their speeds, and the back uses switches (upper left) for the exhaust fans (back and major ones). There's even a switch for the LED, due to the fact not absolutely everyone can deal with the cool blue like I can. :)

wonderful layout, all the functions i could want. Great airflow and room for upgrades was the greatest factor. i knew i must get the complete tower, and now that i've upgraded to SLI and RAID i can see that i've made the right option.The fans have worked with minor issue. They've run quiet but are noticeable when they are all cranked up! no major deal. thumb screws all through the situation are also i great feature. (What had been you expecting me to say a thing about it's size right here? Sry, that belongs in the Pros.) Kinda funny, when a fan LED went out Antec wanted me to break a fin on the fan, take a image and send it to them. Sorry but it isn't worth producing waste more than a blown LED. I know what you are trying to do antec, which is manage the hand outs. Believe Antec kinda fudged on that a single.

In particular handy for demolition. You could literally demolish a complete residence by making use of this issue as the ball in a ball and chain. Seriously this issue is challenging.-esata on front.-they arent idl0ts: they place front ports on Best-tiny logo-read how many internal tricky drives this factor supports-you can pack this factor full of anything you have and have a lot of room (good luck carrying it although) Literally the heaviest situation I've ever owned. Also it's Large. And loud. And the lights are cheesy. Did I mention it is Big? Probably high-priced but who cares anyways. Whoever decided light blue led lights were cool ought to be crushed to death with the ball and chain. And by that I imply an antec 1200 getting swung about by king kong, the only mammal who can easly carry it. Only get this if you program on making use of the internal drives. Seriously this issue is overkill for generally every person. Even if you do three-way sli, psu, atx mobo, a dvd, blueray, 9 hard drives, added fans, and so forth, you will Nonetheless have room with this cursed issue.

amazing situation. complete tower, straightforward to operate, great cooling. its heavy. but what do you anticipate
