Overview
Builders planning a large water-cooled system get a dual-chamber full tower from Antec here. Glass wraps the front and side, panels release with a slide button rather than screws, and an aluminum VGA holder props up a heavy graphics card.
Radiator room is the standout: thick radiators fit on several sides at once, which suits custom loops and large all-in-one coolers. It ships with no fans at all, so cooling depends entirely on the fans you supply.
Who it's for
Large custom loops and glass-panel showcase builds suit this Antec case. People wanting a compact desk case, or a ready-to-run enclosure with cooling already fitted, should keep looking.
Pros and cons
- Takes extended ATX boards
- Radiator mounts on several faces of the case
- Tool-free slide button panels
- Aluminum VGA holder in the box
- Ships without any fans
- Only two USB ports listed
- Large footprint for a small desk
- Front fan filter not listed
Performance notes
Thermals come down to the fans and radiators the builder installs, since the case adds none of its own. A dual-chamber split separates cable clutter from the main compartment, which leaves a clearer path for air across the board and graphics card.
