All built, but is it any good?

With the chassis built up it's actually relatively simple to have a clean layout in the 900. The addition of two cable straps incorporated into the motherboard tray helps this immensely.

So a clean layout, in a small footprint, means it's looking good so far, but when you consider that one of the key markets for the 900 will be the LAN party scene, it's good to see that Antec hasn't gone over the top. There is, after all, nothing worse than having to lug a huge chassis from LAN to LAN, week after week.

Considering it has a 200mm fan up top, a 120mm fan at the back and the cooling fan on the CPU itself, there’s plenty of air flow around the most crucial areas of any chassis, so the question is, does the sensible design lead to impressive thermal results?
