    loved Antec back in the day - had an antec 1200 huge airflow case, saw me thru x58 to current ryzen system - got corsair crystal 570x now, sold the antec 1200 to bloke who is using it as server case due to awesome airflow, 15 years later and still getting used

    So glad you did this video as I just updated my build in this same case. It was a DREAM to build in. Roomy, lack of razor edges, and cable routing was easy. Used two of their 5 pack Sync fan sets.

    Had a few Antec cases. In particular, i still use a 300. That thing was built like a tank. It's ALMOST IBM server tower quality, but IBM built those like nuclear silos. Even empty, it takes one man a broken back insurance to move it about.

    My very first PC that I built was in an Antec Plus 1080 Full Tower case *with Window*. AMD Athlon 2K and I had around 10 fans in that thing. UV Cold Cathode and round IDE, Glow-in-the-Dark cables.
    I miss that case, I miss all the room in it. Good on Antec for sticking with it this long!

    I'm using an Antec 1FT Performance which I bought following your review Jay. Best case I've ever used, excellent options for cable management, clean look, great airflow (I use a 360 AIO for CPU cooling) It also has a digital display panel which shows the CPU or GPU temp and it has been handy when gaming to be able to see temps without something on screen. I love it so thanks for reviewing it.

    I still run an Antec 1200 case. It was my first Custom PC case and I've just upgraded it over time. I love the look of it and that with the fans in the front and top, looking like a beast. I've swapped all the fans out for ARGB ones over time and cut one of the HDD cages to allow for longer length GPUs. I've also recently created a PSU cover out of Acrylic to create a basement to hide cables in. Next time I upgrade I'm going to make a cut out for ease of installing tower or liquid coolers to the CPU as it's the only thing now it really needs in terms of mod-cons.

    best case ive ever owned ive had it 5 years now modded it a few times to suit different things currently a 11600kf an gtx108ti .love would not change it, , also drives bays are old school we have m.2 now so you don't need drive bays or many drive bays

    I just finished a build in the NZXT H9 Flow and it's very similar to this case. Thanks to the popularity of the Lian Li 011 Dynamic, every manufacturer is doing their take on that 'fish tank' design. I'm a bit biased, but I like the design choices NZXT made on the H9 Flow over this one. The top and back panel mounts for radiators or fans are removable in the H9 Flow where these are fixed. Being able to remove the mounting plate from the case, mount your radiator or fans and then install them all at once as a unit is really convenient. It's also nice when you need to change something in your build that requires you to remove the fans or radiator, you can simply undo a couple of tumbscrews and pop the whole assembly out and then back in again rather than having to disassemle things and then put it all back together. Also in the H9 Flow there is a panel on hinges that covers the cable routing channel on the back side to cover up your lack of cable management (although it offers amazing cable management options, there's velcro straps that allow you to manage all your cables without having to use any zip ties) and that panel is where you can mount up to four 2.5" drives. Needless to say, I'm happy with my choice. Other than those few things though both cases are very similar and look fantastic IMO.

    My first antec case was before cases had side fans or top fans and 120mm was the absolute max. I cut new fan mounts out by hand, drilled and grinded, and did wet-sanding multiple paint layers to mirror shine, all by hand back then. AMD Athlon 1500+!

    Antec has a few new cases that recently caught my attention. I was actually loooking for the In Win D Frame case and Antec's new Supreme Series cases popped up as alternatives. One is the Antec Cannon and the other is the Antec Striker. They both integrate mounting for water cooling parts on the exterior of the case and the parts become part of the exterior aesthetic.

Unfortunately I only have one Antec component for my upcoming first custom loop build and it's their Antec Signature 1000w Titanium power supply which looks like it was made via Seasonic which adds even more confidence in it's quality. it looks stunning as far as PSUs go so I can't wait to build with it.

I also have 7 d30 fans and the rgb kit for it as well. gonna keep a check on this series of cases to see if they make one similar to the nzxt h6 flow. that's the next case i'm going to buy for an intel sonic themed build.

    Ah yes. The good old days, when Antec was a brand to love. Had a pair of Antec Super LANBoy cases, one for me and one for my wife. In fact, the nifty little pop-out parts drawer it had, to this day, still holds all my assorted case and PC screws I've collected over the years. After that I had an Antec 900 that went from desktop to server case (because of the hard drive capacity). It ended up retired when I started getting into used server gear - you just can't beat drive capacity per square inch of rack mount gear.
    It'd be nice to see Antec come back to their glory days as a manufacturer that was worth buying, but I'd need to see more than a sponsored build video to believe it. Sounds more like a job for Gamers Nexus' case reviews.

Those were the first higher-end cases I ever built in, and they were awesome. If they brought them back with some modern updates (PSU shroud, TG side panel instead of acrylic, front fan mounts instead of like 10 5.25 bays, USB-C on the front I/O, etc), they would be awesome!

    Jay, you are one of the few people I trust online with reviews buddy. Great channel and content. Something I wish you can add to the case reviews however is the actual motherboard tray area measurements. Most of the time manufacturers only give you the max sizes that will fit in areas like the motherboard. The trouble with that however is although the component may fit in that area it may not fit well especially with other components. For example, I have a E-ATX motherboard and a common mid-tower case. The specifications say you can put a motherboard less than 280mm in the case. Now the motherboard does fit as stated but it overhangs the motherboard tray area and actually blocks some of the side fans. Not enough to cause problems but it just doesn't look nice in a case with multiple glass panels. That being said, I am looking for a replacement case now. So, if you can provide the measurements that would be great for this review and possibly future case reviews. Thanks, and keep up the great work.

    My Antec 1200 is still standing next to my desk with half of my old system in there.. it now functions as a bystand table with my hot water dispenser on top of it for my tea during the day.. hehe.. Maybe I will use it in the future for like a home server thing.. Build a new system last summer in my new Lian Li Lancool 216 RGB, Really love the new case btw!
