Used to set up a home server, I appreciate the quantity of 3.5" HDDs that can be inserted in a case at this price.
You'll still have to tell yourself that you're getting the minimum you need if you choose this one, but sometimes that's exactly what you want.
I had some very old equipment to rebuild a vintage PC, but I needed a case.
It's fairly classic in its design, but it serves its purpose well.
If it's for gaming or a current mid-range or high-end configuration, I wouldn't recommend it.
But for a back-up configuration or for an office or internet browsing configuration, it's more than enough.
Product delivered as expected
Easy installation of power supply and motherboard components
operation of the assembled unit nominal and satisfactory
Not a bad case from the outside, but the interior layout could do with a bit more care when it comes to assembly.
There's something vibrating at times and it's very unpleasant, especially as I can't pinpoint what's causing it, even after disconnecting the original fan...
As I don't have an assembly diagram, I can't dismantle the front panel: there are some large clips which seem fragile to me and I won't risk it: too bad for the 'front' fan.
Quality product, competitive price and fast, careful delivery...
LDLC remains a reference in the field, year after year ...
This case provides a welcoming cocoon for the components for a sober and modern design.
It offers good ventilation (thanks to the installation of fans on the front and rear panels) and decent soundproofing (no parasitic vibration).
I migrated my linux server configuration into this box, the advantage is the 3 bays 5/14 which allowed me to put a HDD rack for my raid 1 + spare
I've been using this case for a while now and it's a good idea to use it for a long time.
The case has a small width which makes it easy to fit in the rack.
mounted with a micro atx + ryzen + scalable power supply, and centos 7
this server hosts a web server as well as vmware.
I'm thinking of buying another one to migrate my backup server with its old case, but I'm hesitating with a fractal design r5 (out of stock) because I'd have more disks to put in.
That said, it's perfect for me.
does the job without more a bit expensive for what it could have better for the same price but good
Entry level case with very good qualities. Easy to assemble, correctly accommodates all the necessary components (ATX motherboard, graphics card, power supply, multi-card reader, medium-sized ventirad... nothing to complain about
I bought the box for the creation of a server.
For the price the box has just what it takes without being of an excellent finish.
The pluses :
No problem for the installation of the different elements.
Relatively compact case for an ATX card.
Possibility to put a lot of 3.5" hard disk
The- :
Some assembly rivets are not properly fitted and some elements are therefore not fixed or not fixed together.
Because of the compact case the cable management is rather difficult. (Not really a problem in the case of the creation of my server)
I also wonder about the dust with the grid on the side. (To see in time)
I bought it for a small office configuration.
Sober design, the finish is not bad. Inside, the placement of the HDDs is not very practical.
I'm not sure I'll be able to get the quality of a gamer tower for the price ;)
I'm not sure if it's a good one or not, but I'm sure it's a good one.)
A case in all its simplicity, I mounted in it a gamer config with gtx 1060 and watercooling with i7, everything fits but in medium tower there is really not much space with such a big hardware inside but everything fits ^^.
Good box, easy to implement, rather thin sheet metal but pc to be used for a file server not requiring future change so no worries!
I'm not sure if this is a good idea or not, but I'm sure it will be, and I'm sure it will be.
I'm very pleased with the quality of the product and the service.
The case itself is correct. A bit cheap but considering the price it's normal. The mesh of the side panel is very big and brings a lot of dust inside.
The space between the rear panel and the CM partition is ridiculous, it is almost impossible to run cables through it, which forces you to be inventive for the cable management...
The power supply is on top but the supports are relatively well made and this configuration is not a problem.
Beware of the slightly long CGs that may come into contact with the non-removable HDD cage.
On the other hand, a big black spot, which made me rather angry: the screws! Seriously, it is indicated case for ATX / µATX card, we have 6 spacers only! 7 CM screws! Who are we kidding? We don't even have the number to fix µATX... Fortunately I had some lying around, otherwise I would have sent the case back...
I don't recommend the product, the lack of spacer makes it almost unusable, unless you're not afraid that your CM is all wobbly...
Used to mount a desktop configuration.
So no problem with space for the microATX motherboard.
The PC runs 24 hours a day. No problems with overheating: the airflow seems to be consistent between the rear fan, the Corsair Builder fan and the fan tray. Good overall finish.
Good quality/price ratio
I was looking for a low cost but good quality box and I was tempted by Antec's reputation and ordered this box.
The case itself is of good quality, the different cards fit perfectly, the ventilation is done correctly, in short, the price/quality ratio is great.
The case is not suitable for large systems, due to the limited number of fan slots and the fact that, as I said above, everything just fits. Even with a modular power supply the space for cables is limited.
Although it is well made, I wish Antec would have provided all the hardware, as 3 out of 9 CM brackets were missing, and more for the bracket. I take 2 stars off for this.
I would have liked to have seen this product in a more expensive package.
