Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Antec Nine Hundred Steel ATX Ultimate Gamer PC Case (Black)
Customer Review: This is an awesome case, very sturdy and stands out of the crowd
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a marvelous case. It is tall and big. Cooling is great. It comes with 3 120mm speed-adjustable fans and one big 200mm upper fan who's speed is also adjustable. Antec has trully focused on advanced cooling with this case. Putting a big fan at the top of the case is a big plus because hot air raises and cool air goes down.( That's why they put airconditioners at the top of a room, lol) So, with the two fans in front blowing in and 2 others blowing out makes this case a very cool one (literately). The front panel is very well positioned and the top tray is also great. The case is made of steel and everything is very sturdy. If you touch the case it makes you and others feel like you have a very expensive computer even if you have an old pentium III in it!
If your power supply has a lot of cables it could be a bit anoying when repositioning the wires around the case but it doesn't keep you from fully customizing your system.
For those that complain that this case doesn't come with a removable motherboard tray. Really.. Even though you're a super costumization geek, you really won't be changing your motherboard every week.
If you're planning to buy a case with good cooling, look no further.
The Antec Nine Hundred is a great investment.

Summary: 5 Stars
One thing its big and there is know shortage of fans but I wish some of them like the top and back fans worked off the mother board power supply it would be nice to know what the speeds are but its no big deal I could get a fan controller I haven't decided yet but it has a lot of space I fit a huge cpu cooler I forgot the model number but its copper with two round heat pipes with copper fins and a blue LED's in the center it went perfect with the cases 30 blue LED's all the bays are in the front you can use them as 5 1/4 inch drive bays or 3 1/3 inch drive bays with these long screws there are 12 all together. The case is not tool less but its just some screws some people are so lazy. The one thing I like about this case is that it is built to last I have had it a while and there's not even a scratch I have been threw my share of cases and this is the best design I have seen I really like the top 12 inch fan it keeps the case at a constant 72 degrees Fahrenheit and the other 12 fans help to but its not for LAN party's mine must weigh over 150 Pounds I can't even lift it after I installed everything I think its the 2 ATI Asus EAH4870X2 and the 1000 watt power supply there is sill a ton of room I am thinking of adding 3 more raptors in a RAID.Customer Review: Amazing case
Summary: 5 Stars
Only one word can describe this case : Amazing. It comes with all neccessary items for a new system build, and the case quality is top notch.
Pros:
-Great plexi viewing window
-All system fans come with 3 speed modes, and led's are v nice.
-Just about the best you can get for air cooling.
-Removable hdd cages can be positioned anywhere along the front, with the added bonus of the fan being directed in same position into the computer(intake) for intake adjustments.
-Case looks great.
-Front connector is v nice with a firewire port, blue hdd led and the standard 2x usb, power, reset and headphone jacks.
-Top mounted fan is HUGE and adds to system cooling as well as looks.
Cons:
-Fan power connector pins may not be lined up very well, so if care isnt taken and they are not adjusted(where needed) they may pop out the back of the connector with force.
-Many screws(although a half twist from a screw driver and allot of them are finger removable).
-No card reader bay.
Antec has a winner here, and if you own one of these you will feel like a winner.
Customer Review: The Best Mid Tower Case Out There!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
Hi, I got this case about 2 weeks ago from [...] when it was on sale for $[...]. This case was part of my list of upgrades that I wanted to add since the beginning.
At first my computer was being quite loud and I thought it was the fan on my PSU, but after replacing my old cheap Rosewill case it barely makes a sound.
The PSU is mounted on the bottom and at first I wasn't too crazy about that but it now it directs good air around my graphics card(before 50-70c underload After: gpu stays right around 46c)
You'll have to have alot of 4pin molex connectors to feed all the fans around the case.
The drive cages are very solid and also cool your HDDs too because of the intake fans. They are kind of annoying to have to take off both side panels to take them out but that ensures that they're stable.
High quality 3speed fans with small connectors to regulate those speeds. The switches are hard to get to but you only have to leave them on low.
There are water cooling ports already in the back of the case which is a nice touch if you ever want to upgrade.
Customer Review: AWESOME BUT SMALL
Summary: 5 Stars
The only reason I don't give this review 5 stars is because of the size inside. I can't fit more than one GTX 260 or Radeon 4870.
I love this case though.
I have a small boutique PC gaming lounge in So. Cal. and have over 20 systems built using this case.
It looks clean from the outside, which is important for my lounge, and it is well ventilated.
I love the fact that there is a large fan on top over the CPU cooler as well as the fact that it uses rounded edges so I don't cut my hands when building a new rig.
The design is clean and sleek.
The Blue LED fans in the front only add to the asthetics of my lounge and actually serve a purpose by keeping my hard drives cool.
On 5 of these systems, I have a large 1000w Power Supply from Corsair and it still fits with the hard drives backing up against the cables.
All and All, I absolutely LOVE this case!
Amazon is doing a great job at selling components and I'm buying here more and more!!!
