OverviewCustomer ReviewSpecificationsProduct Tour
Antec’s Nine Hundred case was acclaimed for its combination of style and cooling design. The Twelve Hundred is an evolutionary improvement that capitalizes on the original design and adds even more for a design that can take whatever you throw into it. Even the largest 10.5” graphic cards like AMD’s Radeon HD 3870 x2 and Nvidia’s 9800 GX2 fit into any of the 7 expansion slots within its cavernous interior without limiting hard drive placement within any of the 12 bays. Mini ITX, Micro ATX or standard ATX motherboards likewise fit with ease.

A pair of three-speed 120mm blue LED fans exhaust heat out the rear of the case while a 200mm fan does so through the top. The speed of the fans, can be controlled from the outside of the case. Space and mounting points are provided for two more 120mm fans – one in the middle to cool the CPU or graphic card, and another bringing air in through the side panel to cool the expansion cards. Knockouts for liquid cooling systems are built in as is a platform for a reservoir or pump.

Because excess heat will kill any system, the case is designed to maximize cooling. The perforated front bezel offers maximum air intake by the trio of 120mm blue LED fans that pull air through the washable air filter. The front panel is finished off with top-mounted I/O ports for easily connecting an eSATA and a pair of USB 2.0 devices along with HD audio inputs and outputs.

Tech Level Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: This bad boy does what it is suppose to with some nice cable management features to boot. With 7 120mm fans ( 2 optional) and 1 200mm big boy installed, My whole set up runs about 2-4Cs colder over my 900. The back panel fan control for the exhaust fans are also very nice.
Cons: Doesn't cook.
Other Thoughts: I had very little trouble if any getting this case together. This thing cools anything immediately around it. I'm getting chills just sitting next to it.

Antec HAS NOT listened to their customer!

Tech Level Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: BOOOOO to Antec!
Cons: Regarding Killer's review a view posts earlier: Antec has not listened to their customers! Only select boxes of the Antec 1200 received extra fans because those cases had possibly faulty fans mounted within them. I recently received this from an Antec representative explaining why my 1200 had not come with those optional fans:

"It has come to our attention that recent production of Tri-Cool fans may suffer from a minor defect in the speed control that prevents some units from working properly at the low speed setting. As the problem was discovered in post-production Quality Control there is no way to determine precisely which units suffer from this issue without opening and testing tens of thousands of cases. So, in the interest of customer service and satisfaction, Antec has included a complete set of new, fully tested Tri-Cool fans with this case, free of charge.

If any of your pre-installed fans suffer a performance problem, you can simply replace it with one of the units"
Other Thoughts: He then finished up his email to me:

"We’ve since corrected the problem, so the need to include extra fans is no longer required."

He then proceded to link me to where I can purchase them off of their site for TWENTY DOLLARS A POP! So post shipping $50+ to complete my matching fan setup... slap in the face considering you can get their clear counterparts off of here for 10 bucks each plus the shipping, so ~$20ish cheaper.
Manufacturer Response:When we were including additional fans with this case, there was a piece of paper with it that stated the reason for their presence. Many people do not read the paperwork that comes with products they purchase, and this can result in confusion.

Purchasers who receive a case with possibly faulty fans will have spares already included with the case. If the case has known good fans, as yours does, then we will include only the fans described in the NewEgg product specifications.

The reason we link to our own site for parts is that we don't want to be seen as biased in recommending one reseller over another, and we know for sure that we have stock. The reason that the parts on our site are priced at retail is to not undercut the many other companies who sell our products. The only exception is B-Stock. You are free to purchase from wherever you like.

Pros: Great air flow! all the fans come with individual speed controllers. Its a really nice case and has a lot space.
Cons: The floppy drive hardware was a pain to install. The case is a little on the heavy side but i dont mind. The cable management holes could have been a bit lager.
Other Thoughts: Overall an amazing case to me! Ive had my eye on this case and now im loving it! its defiantly worth every penny

Solid case

white Reviewed By: Fawks on 12/19/2009
Rating + 3
Tech Level Tech Level: average - Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
Pros: Massive case with room for everything I had. Looks beautiful when lit. Runs very cool, so much so that it actually cools the room around it.
Cons: When I went to attach the first case fan in the front of the case the positive wire pulled out of the plastic power connector so I'm down one fan before I even power it up.
Other Thoughts: I received this case as a gift back in July as the starter piece to a new build that I only just now had the funds to complete so I personally can't complain about how much I payed for it but it was really annoying and disheartening to have that first fan wire pull out as soon as I touched the stupid thing.
