Cons:
Could use an intake fan somewhere
Pros: Quality PSUSolid ConstructionLooks Comment:
For a case that is small on the outside, it has quite a bit of space on the inside. Everything comes apart in a way that makes it super easy to work in, the sides and top come off and the drive tray pops right out even with drives installed. They included a small blower exhaust fan that is very quiet and still moves a decent amount of air. The PSU is of great quality and has very nice 12v rails. |

Cons: No spot for a card reader, not enough cooling if you are looking for a gamer case.
Pros: Solid build, easy disassembly, quality power supply, typical Antec build quality. Comment:
Initially I used a Kuma 7750 and asus M3a78 em. Too hot for this small case. I replaced that with a 65watt AMD Regor 245 and a gigabyte GA-MA785GM-US2H, OCZ 1066 ram. I also installed a Scythe Big Shuriken all from NCIX. Now it idles at 35C, runs Karmic Koala Beta like a champ. Nice and quiet. Going to build another one now with a low voltage quad core. Or maybe the new Propus quad with the Shuriken. The black and silver looks great on my desk. This review was modfied by poster @ 10-06-09 10:22 AM |
The interior is very cramped and poorly laid out, which makes it very difficult to assemble. It must be almost fully disassembled to make even minor changes. Power supply interferes with anything larger than a standard heat sink. No 8 pin motherboard connecter on P/S. SATA power cable connectors are too short.The worst thing about this case is the power supply. I've had 2 fail in 4 months. It's not overloaded either. Maximum power draw as measured by a UPS is less than 75w. It's a custom P/S and the case layout makes it impossible to install a standard one.
