Antec 300 case


This to look at is a very nice bigish mini tower case and is paradise compared with the case it replaces, I found with the old case that, the end off the Video card for example was almost touching some of the optical drives or hard disks, their is no such problem with the case.
Well included within the box was the usual multi language manual al 42 pages of it with 5 being in English.
The case had the usual left and right side panel’s being able to be removed, along with the front panel facia, included in the case their was the usual screws and so on along with a bag of knurled nuts the kind that you can easily undo by hand no screw drivers where intended to be used here. The case once the front facia has been removed had room for 3 optical drives up top under the front USB/Audio connectors/on off switch’s With room for two 120MM fans below, these would fit within the two mettle fan mounts again secured with knurled nuts. Looking head on, on the right side off the Hard Disk bays was a cabling trunk with two plastic securing bands. This I feel could easily have been included on the left side to,  the side that does not include the motherboard.
The case included 3 X 3Speed 120MM fans, the speeds being  Slow/Medium/Fast the only failing here as I found out latter is that they only have Molex connectors, and the fan management system I bought separately of the internet uses 3-4 pin connectors.
I would highly recommend this case to anyone who wants a stylish case, a cut above the rest.
