Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Antec Nine Hundred Steel ATX Ultimate Gamer PC Case (Black)
Customer Review: Great mid priced case!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great overall case: great looks with blue led fans, easy to access sides, and cool perforated front panel. Top tray and USBs are handy for phones and I-pod storage while interfacing. It has metal panels, sides and frame, but plastic front rails, switch interface and top fan grill. Well made case with decent build instructions and hardware. Everything fits well. Great ventilation and lots of fans, but no filters. Pretty quiet with the 3-speed fans on medium.
Mid size case will accomodate two full length gtx 200 video cards but will limit your build to only three hard drives due to size (depth) limits of any mid size case.
Customer Review: Ice Cold
Summary: 5 Stars
This thing not only keeps my system cool, I dont even need to turn the AC on in my house. I'm freezing! Did i say "IT OWNS?" Perfect size, i'll never buy a full tower case again. Mid size is more than enough room. Super easy installation for a first time builder, makes my $500 upgrade look like I bought a $1500 PC.
Advantages:
-200mm fan on top
-Mp3 holder/cup holder on top
-I love how the PSU is on the bottom
-Slidable 3 slot hard drive compartments with 120mm cooling fans (ownz)
Cons:
Spend some time doing cable management or it will look ugly in there!
GPU is upside down. Looks funny hah
Customer Review: Good Value - Great Performance

Purchased this case to house a fast graphics rendering system, not a "gamer". The issues normally associated with a rendering box are somewhat similar to the gamer in that running the quad cpu, drives, memory, and graphics card for long periods of intense computing can allow damaging or life-shorting heat to build up in the components. This case provides excellent ventilation and air flow along with plenty of space for drives. I could live without the clear side and blue led's but it still gets the job done well at this price. The "on top" controls work well if you set it on the floor and are very convenient, this is a well constructed, sturdy case.Customer Review: The midtower standard

The Antec 900 is the model for other cases in my humble opinion. The airflow is fantastic for those who don't spring for a water cooling apparatus. Fortunately, it has ports for that too if you need them. I prefer cases with power, USBs and firewire on the top of the case. I also don't care for a door covering the front of the case that I have to constantly open and close anytime I need the DVD or power button.
I bought for $99.99 with free shipping which is the best I have found. Can't go wrong with this case. Only thing I have found better is the Antec 1200, but you better have A LOT of room to put it in. That thing is HUGE!
Customer Review: Good case for the money
Summary: 5 Stars
My son (he's a gamer) actually bought the case, but we transferred his 'old' parts (Asus Crosshair II with Quad Phenom/GeForce GTX260), to the new case on my workbench.
The high points were:
There was plenty of room for his huge heat pipe heatsink.
Lots of screws/standoffs; etc. included.
Drive mounting arrangement was friendly.
Power supply mounts at the bottom of the case.
Despite the BIG fan in the top of the case, it is very quiet.
His processor temps dropped about 11* C. (new heatsink and new case)
I'm thinking of this case for my triple capture HTPC.
