Antec Gaming Series Three Hundred Two Mid-Tower PC/Gaming Computer Case with 9 Tool-Less Drive Bays, 2 SSD, 120/140mm Fans x 2 Pre-Installed, 4 Fan Mounts for ATX, M-ATX and Mini-ITX,Black

I've used a lot of cases, from cheap-o $15 cases to $150 cases with more bells and whistles than a luxury car. Having said that, this is a real mans case. This thing is huge, Texas would be envious of the size of this case. It comes with two fans and has mounting points for 3 more, all 120mm, none of those sissy little 80mm girly fans. Heat issues? Ha, not likely when I can create a small hurricane inside this bad boy. Mounting points work for pretty much any size motherboard except maybe a full server board, but all sizes of ATX boards should fit this except maybe those little tiny micro ones, but if you're buying a micro ATX board your not doing anything useful with a computer anyway and you should not get this case as it will make your motherboard feel very inadequate. All in all, I'm pleased with this case, the side mounted hard drives are what really sold me on this, I smoke hard drives left and right, so being able to easily drop them in with the snap clips is a big plus, lets me get back to work in no time instead of fumbling around with those tiny screws that you drop and lose 15 of them trying to get two of them go in. So I'm sure your sitting there going "Gee Mr. review writer, is there anything this case doesn't have?" and sadly I must report that this case does NOT come with a coffee maker or any form of a microwave, so I still have to go to the kitchen. I was a little disappointed with that, but the front mounted USB 3 and sound ports more than made up for that. In summary, I'd give this case a 9/10, but Amazon uses stars, so, it gets 5 since they won't let me put a half star. Why the half star, or 9/10, you might ask? Well nothing is perfect, and this does have one flaw and that was the power supply mounting point. It is on the bottom as many cases have these days, however, there's a little metal bracket above it (a guide/stopper) that was bent or misshapen from the factory, this was preventing me from actually dropping my power supply into place. This was easy to remedy though, I took my trusty pliers and bent that sucker out of the way and then was able to mount the power supply. So as long as you own some form of bending-capable tool, you should be able to resolve any clearance issues you encounter.

This case was a joy to build with. Rolled edges for a tear-free installation, filters on the fan intakes, spacious interior, side-installed 3.5" bay, USB 3.0 front ports, great design. Some people have complained about there being too many 3.5" drive bays, but I actually like that so I can space out my drives. I've got three installed, and have an empty bay between each of them to allow for air-flow. I specifically searched for cases with NO side-window, because while I consider the inside of my computer gorgeous, I didn't want a flashy exhibitionist case. Probably my favorite feature about this case is that the motherboard is offset by about 1.5" from the right side of the case to allow ample cable management. All of my cables go behind this wall, so when looking inside, all that can be seen is the ends of the cables meeting their ports, but just about no visible dangling cables. A couple minor negatives: The blue power LED displayed through the pin-hole is not an issue; however, the headphone cut-out in the plastic is excessively large (likely to allow disconnecting the face of the case with ease), and the LED can be seen through the opening, which in this case is blinding. I fixed that with a small piece of cardboard taped to the side of the headphone jack to block the light from traveling in that direction. I can still see it via the pin-hole where it's supposed to come through, but that's it. Also, the tool-less mounting brackets for the hard drives and optical drives don't seem to be sound-conscious - no rubber grommets or other sound-eliminating solutions. However, the case seems to be quiet regardless; I have a PSU fan, CPU fan, and two exhaust fans, as well as one or two HDDs spinning, and the loudest sound is the PSU fan, which isn't even very loud, and I can't hear the computer with my music on. There was one confusion at first: Instead of the side walls sliding backward then off, they actually swing out like car doors (and then can be pulled off the case). I've not decided whether I like this compared to the traditional method, but once I figured that out, it was okay. The only concern here is if the case is in a semi-confined area, it may be difficult to get the swing-out needed to pull the walls off, but I've managed.

I purchased this case to be the home for my new Asus Maximus XI Code motherboard at the beginning of 2020. I've purchased an Antec case in the past and had good luck with it. This new Antec case didn't disappoint either. It's very basic, but the quality of the metal & plastic is good. It has no LEDs - a definite positive for me. I can't handle all the lighting, and it seems as though it's difficult to find items that don't have LEDs now. This case comes with fans, and they remain quiet after 5 months of use. It's not a huge case, but big enough to get the job done, and have adequate cooling. I'm very satisfied with it. I would recommend this to anyone requiring a basic case without needing one of those massive gamer cases with all the crazy lighting. I don't see why this wouldn't satisfy most user's needs. I would buy another case identical to this one if I need another.

Ottimo case, resistente, spaziosissimo e di design. Lo spazio interno permette un'ottima aereazione delle componenti. In piú ha anche lo scomparto per la cavetteria. Unica pecca, da guardare il video illustrativo sul sito della casa produttrice per vedere bene l'inserimento dei masterizzatori e HD.

海外からの取り寄せで約1か月待ちましたが、とても良い状態で届きました。 待っている間に取り付けの手順をあれこれ考えることが出来、いざ本番で満足できる結果を得られました。 買ってよかった製品です。

This is a great gaming case as there is plenty of room for up to 3 large graphics cards without impacting on disk storage. The intelligent layout means you could have up to 3 graphic cards, 6 hdds and 2 SSDs - you don't have to of course (I don't!) and it is still worthwhile for the extra flexibility you get with this case. Construction quality is good, access to all areas is easy using simple thumbscrews to remove the side panels, then the front panel can be popped & swung off. The case is part 'tooless' - HDDs can be simply slipped in after attaching screwless side-rails, DVD drives are just pushed in. However you do need a decent small Phillips screwdriver to attach the motherboard, a hex bolt tool or v small spanner is also useful (not vital) to attach the motherboard mounting points. The PCI card rail has a small panel with two screws for extra security, but that is good as you want to make sure those heavy graphics cards stay in place! Even with 4 fans running the case is quite quiet, but certainly not silent. Notes from other reviews as the case may have been revised form earlier models: 1. My case came with both USB3 and USB2 header cables - only one can be attached but that is still good news for 'older motherboard' owners. 2. The screws for the optional front fans are exactly the right size for Antec 120mm fans - if your fans are thinner, you may need a hacksaw to avoid the screws fouling the drive cage... 3. The supplied fans have long power cables, reaching to virtually the bottom of the case fully extended, so no need to re-position the fans! Finally a note about the two SSD mounting points - one is behind the motherboard (innovate!) but will require you to fit the drive before the motherboard if you have a full ATX size board. My micro ATX board left the mount points clear so I will not have a problem should I add one. The other is at the bottom of the case - should be OK anytime. However be aware that you may have issues feeding power cables to these positions, as they are away from other drives, and look like they will need to use the power connector at the end of the power supply cable. If you plan to use them straight away consider if you need to order a molex to sata convertor or extension cable as well.

Als erstens muss ich mich für die superschnelle Lieferung von Schwanthaler Computer bedanken. Mittwoch Nachmittag bestellt, Donnerstag Morgen da... Das Gehäuse ist schön schlicht gehalten, nich so bunt und hell beleuchtet wie andere Gehäuse... Ich mach jetzt einfach mal ne Pro und Contra liste. Pro: - Wie schon erwähnt schön schlicht - Genug Platz für Längere Grafikkarten - Kabelmanagment (Die Kabel werden hinterm Board langgezogen) - Viele Möglichkeiten Lüfter einzubauen: 2 Vorne 120 mm, 1 Hinten 120 mm, 1 Linke Gehäuseseite 120 mm, 1 Rechte Gehäuseseite 120 mm, 1 oben 140 mm - Laufwerke kann man ohne Werkzeug einbauen - Staubfilter für die Lüfter vorne und für das Netzteil - Schrauben und Abstandshalter fürs Board werden mitgeliefert und Schrauben für die Befestigung für die 2 Frontlüfter Contra: - Nur 3 5,25" Laufwerksschächte, wer nen Kartenleser oder so einbauen will muss sich nen 5,25 zu 3,5 zoll Adapter kaufen - Der 140 mm Lüfter oben ist einfach zu Laut für meinen Geschmack, deswegen hab ich ihn auch ausgebaut, der 120er geht noch - Es wurde kein USB 3.0 zu USB2.0 Adapter mitgeliefert. Den kann man aber kostenlos anfordern. Einfach ne Mail an [email protected] mit Rechnung und der Bitte einen USB 2.0 adapter zu schicken. Fazit: Schönes Gehäuse wo man auch viele Festplatten reinkriegt (6). Das Kabelmanagment ist auch gut. Man kriegt auch längere Grafikkarten rein. Was mich persönlich halt nen bisschen stört ist das halt nur 3 Laufwerksschächte sind. Aber sonst ein gut gelungenes Gehäuse. Kaufempfehlung !
