Antec today rolled out the DF700 FLUX, an ATX mid-tower case characterized by a unique design for its high-airflow front-panel mesh intake. Rather than a flat panel shape for its mesh, the DF700's mesh curves to the pattern of a wavefront. The top panel features the case's second large mesh vent, while the left side panel is tinted tempered glass. Inside, the case features a conventional horizontally partitioned layout, with the upper compartment that houses the motherboard tray, offering room for graphics cards up to 40.5 cm in length, and CPU coolers up to 17.5 cm in height.

Ventilation options in the DF700 FLUX include three 140 mm / 120 mm front intakes, either three 120 mm or two 140 mm top exhausts, a 120 mm rear exhaust, and two 120 mm conveyors between the bottom and top compartments. The case includes a 5-channel fan+ARGB controller. Storage options include two 3.5-inch drive-bays, a 3.5-inch mount, and three 2.5-inch mounts for a total of six spaces. Front panel connectivity includes a pair of USB 3.x type-A, and HDA jacks. The case measures 467 mm x 220 mm x 486 mm (DxWxH).

Update Jan 19th: The company revealed MSRP pricing in Europe to be 86€.

Given that 99% of cases out there are a new front panel (+TG side for those that don't already have that) on an existing dull-as-rocks box made with ten-year-old tooling, the same could be said for pretty much any case manufacturer ;)

Hey, some of us like the same lame boring shite. In fact, this could stand to be even more boring; I'd gladly sacrifice some cable routing and tall cooler support (and tempered glass, and fancy front panels) for a quality case that's <=200mm wide.

Really now, that bottom fan should be mount underneath.

And as always, turn off that RGB to make a better looking case!
