Conclusion
Summing it up, the build quality was good, and overall the features were what we expected for the RRP of around £80 including VAT. When you consider that the 900 ships from Antec with four fans pre-fitted and a further two potential 120mm fans, the noise level would begin to worry us. The target market, the gaming community, tends to be more willing to sacrifice louder cooling if it means better performance.Fortunately the Antec 900 has just that; it impressed with its thermal performance and managed to cope well at shifting the heat from our toasty test kit. Couple this with the inclusion of 5.25” conversion kit, along with a rubber lining for the tray up top, and we think that Antec have just about got the whole thing covered.
If there is one thing that demands us to be critical, it’s the modular bays in the 900, they are just so fiddly. Simple tool-less mountings would go a long way to easing this, however.
A decent chassis, with above-average performance, and an attractive price to boot. Recommended.
