Antec Two Hundred(v2) Black ATX Mid Tower Computer Case

Pros: * very sturdy (sturdiest budget case I've ever used) * 99% of sharp edges rolled over * uniform matte black paint job * solid front-panel connectors & buttons (not flimsy at all) * washable intake filters on the front * spots for 3 extra 120mm fans * quiet 120 & 140mm fans with high/low controls for each

Cons: * no USB 3.0, eSATA or Firewire front-panel connectors * no intake fan (one front 120mm would've been nice)

Overall Review: Even though an intake fan would be nice, this keeps a 5770 and i5 750 plenty cool. A 120mm Scythe is only like 10-20 bucks if you need more air moving around. The 2.5" slot is novel but I haven't used it. It would be nice to use with a little SSD. I got this for $35 shipped on sale. I don't think it's worth $60, but certainly 45-50 (35 was a steal). At $60, a more attractive option like a Cooler Master Centurion 5 II or the Antec Three Hundred is only $10 away, and vastly nicer stuff like CM's RC-690 II or Lian Li's PC-K7B are only $20 off.

Pros: A great case for those on a budget or not wanting a full-size tower. 7 Pci slots in the rear and enough space to easily put in 9 drive bay units. What surprised me though was the low price of the case which features a slide mount 2.5" bay already installed for you. All you need is SATA and power connector and you can easily insert a 2.5" notebook HDD or 2.5" SSD drive for instant storage. You can easily access it through the front with the flip up door. Just remember to turn off the power to your case before you insert or remove a drive! Lightweight and many more features than similarly priced cases, plus it's an Antec! Also features a healthy size cut out on the motherboard tray to allow for airflow to the processor area. Can't install a fan but it does allow for more air regardless. The front allows for 2-120mm fans using an easy to mount dual fan cage, brilliant!!!

Cons: The doors are somewhat flimsy which I've grown accustomed to in this size case across the board from all mfg's to cut down on weight. Other than that no issues at all!

Overall Review: I would like to see the front speaker and mic i/o colored but that's all. Thank you Antec for NOT putting in a 1394 (useless) firewire connection!! 1394 is horrible and should have been abandoned a long time ago!

Pros: This is a good starter case that has no crazy frills and the fan setup is a good place to start with cooling. Side fan hole is well positioned over a graphics card and a great deal of hardware is included.

Cons: I would have preferred Antec just stick with the 3.5" bay instead of move to a 2.5" bay with V2. It makes adding card readers harder (need a 5.25" bay adapter).

Overall Review: I got this as a bundle that included a 3.5" card reader. Someone from NewEgg didn't do their research.

Pros: Lots of Space, Really really well designed, rolled edges. Looks great. Power supply on bottom, Easily accessible

Cons: NONE

Overall Review: This Is my First build using an antech case, For the price, It was Phenomenal. I've built hundreds of computers with Inwin and Other brands but this one was awesome.

Pros: very affordable ($35 AR) but good build quality (a typical Antec trait); compact outside, but fairly roomy inside (my Zerotherm Zen cooler fits without problem); light without being flimsy; understated but attractive exterior; excellent cooling capacity with 2 large top and rear exhaust fans (you can add up to 3 more intake fans); front grill has washable air filter.

Cons: as a budget case, it doesn't have luxury features such as dampening grommets for the hard drives, removable MB tray, and toolless installation; although the power supply is bottom-mounted, there's no opening on the bottom of the case, therefor power supplies with bottom fans have to be mounted upside-down; longer video cards may not fit without interferring with the hard drives.

Overall Review: A good choice for a home server (it accomadates 6 3.5" HD's plus 2 2.5" SSD's)

Pros: Cheap, not some dorky laser covered see-through box, but also not some design straight from 1987 IBM, good construction for the price.

Cons: HDD drive holes weren't even in the neighborhood of close to my Seagate HDD, but taking a dremel tool to it wasn't a huge pain. Only has one cable managing thing internally, but could really use more, especially if you get a PSU with lots of expansion outputs.

Overall Review: Cool features in the cleanable mesh front grill, and the hot-swap slot with a nice door (not some flimsy one) over it. For how much it was, there's absolutely nothing wrong with it.

Pros: -Good quality construction -removable front cage for two optional 120mm fans makes for easy installation + space on the side for fan wire routing -nice recessed fan screws for optional side fan. -Front is full mesh which allows for fantastic airflow -hot-swap drive bay is novel if a bit niche -Lots of room to work inside, plenty of room to tie down and cables on the right side between the mobo and the drive cages

Cons: -no options for a 3.5" drive (like a memory card reader) -No color/label for front headphone/microphone jacks

Overall Review: It is a very good case. It has solid airflow with the two standard fans that cycle lots of air right across the CPU. Add three optional 120mm fans and you have a vary well air-cooled computer. The case is simple, but well put together. You can't really beat the price for this level of quality.

Pros: Well let's see, I guess I'll start by saying it is an amazing case. I literally was itching to get my hands on it and when it finally came, it didn't disappoint. The PSU on the bottom is actually pretty nice as well (I guess it's a aesthetic thing, like the reverse ATX cases). I bought this case because my old PC (in an acrylic case) was just becoming hassle and an eyesore (dust due to my laziness and because opening the acrylic case just to dust it out was too much of a hassle). This does the job well and I might consider getting another one of these for a friend since Newegg rocks so much.

Cons: Would have been nice to have come with 3 more 120mm fans, but I guess you can't ask for more, but I would opt to fill those fan slots up to take full advantage of a very good case.

Overall Review: Overall, it's a solid case. Does the job right and my old 2004 gaming PC is coming back from the grave for some Prince of Persia playing.
