Manufacturer's product description
At one time computer cases were boring, and all pretty much the same. Not any more! Presenting the Performance Series cases from Antec. These cases come full of features that anyone who puts a system together can appreciate. Tired of the old inverted U-covered cases, the Performance Series features lockable swing-out side panels with handles, to make it easier to get into your system for any future upgrades you want to make. Leave the past in the dust, and check out the Performance Series.
Advantages: Very spacious( plenty of room for expansion), looks good, very efficient cooling, lockable Disadvantages: Its one heavy beast
...I purchased this case from Overclockers Uk for around £50 at the time. When I was looking at cases, I wanted something that would be easy to work with whilst at the same time being strong and worth the money. I did not want to spend £15 on a flimsy case that will only last a couple of years. This case has been constructed very well and being made of steel is going to last a very long time indeed.
A very good feature of this case is that it has a lot of slots for 80mm fans, I'm currently using 1 at the front and 2 at the back ( these two are included with the case) and that has provided me with a well cooled system, however there are a further two 80mm fan slots should you need more.
The design of the case, like any Antec case is one I'm sure anyone would be please with. Corners are nicely rounded...

Advantages: Loads of space, good cooling A+ quality Disadvantages: Very heavy, paint scratches easily
...At £50 there are very few cases better than the antec plusview. Recently reviewed and given a star rating in CustomPC, the plusview is well featured, looks great and has been designed with cooling in mind.
It has a total of 4 fan mounts (standard size) all with clips so you won't need screws. Two at the back, one beneath its device bays, and one in a device bay for cooling up to 3 hard drives, a very good idea.
The drive bays them selves are quite unique. There are two detatchable 3.5 inch device boxes each with the capacity of 3 devices such as hard drives etc. Very easy to use and great for quick removal.
There is also a superb cd/5.25 inch device loading method. The case has rail clips, and rails that you can screw into the side of your CD/dvd drive. All you need to do to remove a device is to pinch the clips either side...

Advantages: Lots of room Disadvantages: fan sizes and weight
...I originally purchased this case in order to replace and be able to rid my room of a horrible beige "accountant-like" box. I had only read one review on the antec case which wasnt very convincing, but the price eventually persuaded me to take the plunge. The case is surprisingly large and heavy. It has an extremely large window which is lockable and can be made to look pretty with cold cathode lamps etc. the installation of the motherboard is probably the most difficult thing to do in the case as in most cases. There is plenty of room available for the motherboard and the other components will in no way infringe upon anything else. There are removable cages for the 3.5" bays which makes installation and removal extremely easy. The 5.25" bays have clips which also make installation and removal very easy. Overall the case is excellent...

'Ribbed Music For The Numb Generation' is the début album from the British electro sensation that is Soho Dolls. The music has a dirty electro pop feel, the female vocals come across well over a backdrop of distorted guitars and fuzzy keyboards. It's an... more
We’ve had them all. The film of the book. The book of the film. The new edition of the book because it’s been made into a film so that you can cash in on that. So now, we have the novel set in the heart of the London film industry in Soho.
