Antec Six Hundred Black / Silver Computer Case

Comment:
Good Cooling. Decent cable management. For an Antec case and cost it's quite flimsy metal and low manufacturing tolerance. Back I/O plate was rough to get in. Video card didn't sit really right with the back plate punch outs. Once you pull off the backs for a card they are gone for very good. Didn't come with any front fans. The "Filters" are a bit weak for all the giant holes in this case.

Superior case with plenty of space and options. The hot swap bay rocks and has come in truly handy, in particular when porting over all my data from my old hd into the new one. Keeps truly cool, computer system stays at 35c overclocked and that's with out even a side window fan. I didn't plan on placing on there because I wasn't sure if there would be sufficient space immediately after my graphics card was place in but that was folly. Plenty of room. I may well add a fan there for aethetics but honestly for cooling it doesn't seem to be needed. It's not tool less and the edges can be relatively sharp. It would be good if Antec would give far more LED choices in addition to Blue. I had to mod the 200mm fan from blue to green led's and tossed out the 120mm back fan and replaced it with a green led tri-cool. Each fans blow out so installed 2 120mm green led fans in front to blow in. Immediately after all that, this case appears SICK!

This case has Wonderful COOLING...seriously I swear it's cooled my laptop area down. helps to retain my i7-930 and Sapphire Radeon 5770 OC'ed nice and cool (ឱC for i7ʃ.34GHz, ា for 5770ﶢ񳃃 on gaming ៀ on FurMark)...I DO NOT have all the fans installed, just the top 200mm, the back 120mm, and a side panel 120mm FYI I got a red antec tricool and put that in the back, and put the supplied blue one particular on the side to cool down the gpu...remarkable. And, as far as I'm concerned, this case is Big! I can't envision getting a full tower :-) plenty of space for my c00lormaster hyper 212 plus...can't comment on video card space lead to 5770 is comparatively modest, but seriously, A Massive Amount OF Room!Also, some darn excellent cable management (as far as I can inform by searching at other folks's rigs...) My energy supply is blowing air on my gpu :( not the smartest design I found out that there was some plastic covering on the top rated "sunroof" and some of the wires have been hitting it and SMOKING...a completely n00b error by me and shouldn't take place to anyone else :) just be warnedSome people might not like the sudden temperature drop in their space... i7-930 OC to three.34GHzSapphire Vapor-X Radeon HD 5770 OC to 930񳃃ASUS p6t (nice mobo)WD Caviar Black 1TB hddCorsair XMS3 Platinum (I feel thats' what its referred to as) 6GB DDR3 1600 (oced to 1800 i consider)...LG Blu-Ray BurnerCM Hyper 212 Plus (beast heatsink, Large MOTHER)O C Z fatal1ty 550w...that 135mm fan is blowing that excess heat off the psu...appropriate onto the graphics card :(This is my very first develop!

I have purchased numerous cases over the years, generally going for the bargain (lowest cost) case I could get my hands on. I got tired of components not lining up, filing the case, drilling new holes and such. I finally spent the cash on a Antec Nine Hundred case several years ago and was impressed, considering that then I have bought several more. This case was for my wife's new computer system make and like the other circumstances almost everything match and lined up completely. Didn't come with pink or purple light stock (wife's con) Good case, wonderful business.

A pretty roomy case for a mid tower. Thumb screws for side panels are incredibly handy; I like the bottom mount PSU as effectively. Cable management is effortless, plenty of space in between HDD bays and back side of case to hide wiring. Almost certainly the best factor about this case is the aesthetics, wow it confident looks nice! A bit tiny for these that want to use bigger video cards; some might have issues with fitment. My GTX260 is a tight fit! I would like to see an intake fan mounted in the front from the factory. Knock out expansion slot covers seems fairly affordable to me, must be secured with screws. General a really fantastic case for the cost, nonetheless does not compare to my Antec 1200.

i had the case for a day or two. it looked and felt like a strong case. pretty effectively constructed. the window was cracked. had to send it back. they supposedly place quick shipping on it and i nevertheless have yet to get it back. i purchased this like over a week ago. just bought 9 things. 7 outa 9 function so far. in all probability sending back my graphics card as effectively. it freezes my entire laptop up

What I did was move the stock 120mm blue fan to the side to pull air off my Vapor-x 5770 (which doesn't have back exhaust), and put the green fan in front to intake air for the Hyper 212+ (and graphics card). The red one went in the back to replace the blue on as an exhaust fan! a lot better....Temps:i7-930 OC to 3.5GHz 1.13v (hottest core): 37-38 C idle, ㅷ Prime95 peak (AMAZING!

Excellent looking case. You have to view it unpacked to see that photographs do display you. An awesome case! It has a lot of room for expantion and cooling add ons, A nice Huge LED Blue fan on leading and a Clear side panel to view the inner operating of your rig. Exelent job Antec! None Newegg is nevertheless the Ideal

I guess this situation impressed me additional than most reviewers ---I like it a LOT. The large fan on top is good and so is the 120mm led on back. The front panel pops off effortlessly as well, creating it straightforward to set up a couple 120mm fans for HD’s in the brackets that snap in and out. In contrast to a couple of other people I locate it lots roomy. I have a Saphire 3850 (bought at NewEgg properly over a year ago and nevertheless going powerful), which is 1 of the greater cards you’ll locate, and had no trouble at all fitting it in. Looks wonderful as well. I got some unsolicited raves from a couple loved ones members.The 300 has been my go-to situation on several builds, and I nonetheless consider it’s one of the best bargains about, but I’d give this 600 the edge.

The case is fierce searching. Fits my zalman w/ a lot of room. The front loading hdd slot is a single of my favored capabilities. see under. bottom mounted psu's would be great if they would grate/make wholes in the bottom of the case, say if, you wanted to orient it on it's side and have the psu exhaust out instead of on a gfx card. Also... What the hell is that grate on the plastic side view for? I believed it was to make space for massive coolers but mine is oriented no where close to my cpu's airspace.

Top rated 200mm and rear 120mm fans have speed controls on back of case, you can even turn off the 200mm from same switch. Came with two 120mm front fans. Bottom mount PSU (all cases really should be this way if only PSU makers would make their cables longer). Quiet, 200mm fan effortlessly removed for cleaning and/or replacing. Gobs of space as far as I'm concerned. Oh also has two.five" HDD or SSD mount on floor of case in front of PSU. Looks sharp as well. None for me. Except it doesn't install your hardware by itself. I Enjoy this case. I have ƒ) Antec 900 and ƒ) Antec 300 situations and I favor this one particular overall. Antec 900 has removeable HDD bays but hassle to eliminate because you have to disconnect the fans mounted in the front of them to get it far enough from the case to operate with. 900 has NO front filter and 902 I hear has very tough to get to front filter. 300 has only 140mm top rated exhaust fan and you have to get your personal front fans unless you get the 300 illusion version. But 300 has uncomplicated access front filter. In my opinion, the 600 is ideal of 300 and 900. Don't complain about video card and HDD access. Program ahead, if you have higher-finish video card you know it's gonna be long and you set up motherboard prior to video card adjust HDD placement to facilitate video card needs you can see the pci-e slot(s). If longer video card is purchased later move HDD. Uncomplicated, your already in the case.

Fans are quiet. Lots of room. Like the bottom-mounted PSU. Cable connectors reached almost everything on my mobo and had been obviously labeled. There was adequate hardware to mount every little thing I had. Fans are MOLEX powered. Assumed they would be mobo-threeǚ-pin connected. Would of liked to continue using fan active monitoring. This case replaced a cannibalized server box with the main intent of getting quieter; and it delivered. *sigh* ...at final. Blue LEDs on fans amuse my son, but I could care much less about the bling. No floppy bay - but most instances don't any longer. I should just get more than it. "Yeah, "cold, dead hands...get off my lawn, and so forth."

It has extremely good cooling advantages. Keeps my x3 at 17-35C. I was constructing my Pc....and the flimsy, bad ground wiring coming from the leading panel CAUGHT ON FIRE! I plugged it in, and the ground wire going from the power panel to the board caught on fire...yes, caught on fire. Almost everything appears to be operating though, except for 1 out of my three USB ports. and my HDD light, which you dont require anyways simply because if you cant hear your HDD spinning, then your deaf.]A different issue about the HDD, there is no room in the bay. I had to take away the washable panel or whatever just so my Caviar would fit in there. Not also impressed by that, but it functions. I got it for sale for 70 bucks, for what I got and how it performs, im not whining.Except for the wire catching on fire, this is an all around excellent case.

Generally the exact same as a 300 but with a few accents (top fan, front panel, and so on.. My problem with this case is the interior, most new circumstances in this price tag-range are pre-painted (black) the grey just makes your hardware appear low-cost IMO. Rosewill sells a decent case with a black interior for 39.99$, no cause why Antec can not do the very same at 95.00$ All round the case looks/performs as expected, just a few minor difficulties...

Comment:
Built in removable HD bay. Lighter and a lot more portable then the Antec 900s, but... Missing a excellent several of the attributes I've come to expect in the Antec cases. Although there are 2 120mm front case fan mounts, the fans are not included, and the mount plate seems flimsy and looks like it will restrict air flow somewhat. Also note that there are no case lights -- all the flashy blue lights in an Antec case are from the fans. This case looks dull by comparison. No side case fan included, either, but that I expected. No included hardware to mount a 3 1ǘ" drive. While I'm not utilizing floppies, my card readers all fit in 3 1ǘ" bays. Did not count on to have to fight to remove rear punch out slot covers. Poor design. Sliced a finger open. By the time you pay for two 120mm fans that are included with the Antec 900 (Order three, total!), and hunt down additional slot covers (you do not want to attempt punching out the rear covers as soon as your MB's in place -- liable to lose a capacitor!) it's worth the additional for the Antec 900. Far better cooling; superior style, and typically on sale for a handful of dollars more than I paid for this case. Unless you genuinely need the hotswap HD bay, go for the 900. Less high priced and much less hassle in the long run. And less bleeding on the merchandise.

This case is crazy! Enormous airflow if you have all the 120mm fans filled, hot swap is cool, but i don't use it lots of hardware space! More than all its an very recommendable situation for novice's. With all the fans filled it kinda sounds like a jet taking off below your desk when you 1st start it, but hey at least it keeps everything incredibly cool, i couldn't uncover the cable management stuff though or even that figure it out.

Dropped my program temp 10 C, lots of pretty blue lights, the front panel has bays for two a lot more 120mm fans and has a washable air filter. It has a hot swap tricky drive bay, its that space that looks like a floppy bay on the front. You just plug in what ever challenging drive you want and it plugs in above the video card slot with a lot of space to spare. It has a slot for cable management. along one particular side of the bays. Looks further Radical with a tinted peep window on leading, and all for less than a 900!! I have a 900 as properly but I like this a single far better!! The expansion slots are break out slots rather than covers, but I suppose they had to reduce it back someplace to get that cost so low, and that's not enough to lose an egg or sleep more than.

Excellent airflow, incredibly nice look. Modest adequate not to be obtrusive, but significant adequate to hold everything that I need to have it to hold 200mm top fan is quite brittle.
