Might want to try that for the fans. Just get some cheap blue led fan, or get a tricool and paint it black.

Pretty handy, but I really dont have any spare case fans that I could use. They are all being used. :cry:

Frys is over a 4hr drive for me. Not happening. And CC doesnt have the ones I want either.

Best buy?

Bluefox1115 · Oct 12, 2008

you talking about the stock antec fans in the case? my case came with 2 extras..

Corrosion · Oct 12, 2008

Case is fricken huge. im gonna get one of these as soon as i pay bills and fix my car... so maybe in like a year.

For the CPU? Cant, it wont reach the board.

I have that same issue in my 900 lol..route that CPU Power cable under the vid cards next to the slots...much less obtrusive and shouldn't be an issue or obstruction to mounting add-in cards and graphics cards.

Nice case, a buddy of mine has one...the Antec 300 is a great case also...just got my G/F's build into one a week ago. I may snag one of these in the future tho...very tempting!

Really now...

eidairaman1 · Oct 12, 2008

i really dont care for cases with drive bays all the way down the front,

I Prefer the 5.25 bays up top and fans at the bottom without those additional plates there,

I ideal design would have Hotswap bay that supports 8 HDs and the front of the case where the 2x120 mm fans are that area would fold down so you can change the HDs out.

thats the ideal case i have in mind for such a project

you can see someones final product here

I have room for a total of 9 hard drives and up to 3 opticals or 2 opticals and a floppy drive. Each bay where you see fans in the front of the case is a hdd cage. Very easy to remove and keeps the hdd's nice and cool. Id rather have the option of choosing where I want my hdd's located.

Some of the cases had defective tri-cool fans. So, instead of checking every single case in stock, they included 2 free of charge for those who may have it. Before any one asks...

No, you can not redeem the fans from Antec. It will be included in the cases of those who may have defective fans.

The defect somehow got passed the Q.A..

JRMBelgium · Oct 12, 2008

Antec 900, 1200, beatifull cases and amazing airflow. But they eat so much dust it's unreal...
The 1200 will fill your pc with dust pretty darn fast...

Some People in QA dont do their jobs, that happens anywhere you go, in critical fields that can mean life and death.

Sonido · Oct 13, 2008

If Antec is doing their job, there should of been a slew of firings. The reason I say this is because Antec could of lost a lot of money on that.

One more thing... I think mine did not come with the water cooling platform.. I have to check, if not, contact Antec about it.

sailerboy · Oct 13, 2008

You can move the drive cages anywhere you want. Just move the covers for the slots anywhere you want.

CrAsHnBuRnXp · Oct 13, 2008

Not really considering the 3 fans on the front are all on drive cages. With 3 drive cages, your limited to where you can put them. Very limited.

sailerboy · Oct 13, 2008

well, what do you want? You have a dozen possiblities for your cages. You can put an optical drive anywhere on your computer, and whatnot.

What are you talking about?

I said I coudlnt find any fans that matched the ones that came with the case so I could put one on the side panel and one in front of the graphics card. I never said anything about cages.

If you are referring to this quote

It was a direct response to Airman.

I think to solve my 8-pin CPU power cord issue im going to buy this extender (http://www.frozencpu.com/products/8255/cab-149/8_Pin_EPS-12V_to_Dual_8_Pin_EPS-12V_Y-Cable.html) and just do it that way.

Edit:

Thats not the one i need now that Im looking at it more. Need a 4 pin to 4 pin or an 8 to 8. :banghead:

Bluefox1115 · Oct 16, 2008

aww. my Corsair PSU cables are plenty long.

I'm guessing that you have a 4 pin? This kit may help.

If you don't like that kit, here is an extender on it's own.

Well the conector on the mobo is an 8pin and my PSU has 2x4pin connectors but they are to short to reach the connector on the motherboard when i try and route the cable behind the mobo tray.

Just use the 8pin extender then. You'll be all set.
