Advantages: Well built, looks nice, works well Disadvantages: Instructions a bit vague, cheaper options out there
...Modern PCs are getting warmer inside. Faster processors and graphics cards all mean a lot more heat being generated. To add insult to injury, hard drives are also getting faster and hotter. The bad news is, hard drives don't much like being too hot. If you want to ensure your data remains safe and sound, you may want to consider some extra cooling just for your hard drive(s). Enter the Antec HD Cooler.
Installation
The Antec HD Cooler consists of a well made aluminium jacket which holds the drive and a front panel which contains two fans and a temperature display. The package also consists of a pair of thermal probes, one for the drive and one for the case, some screws and 4 pieces of thermal tape. A switch lets you select between Celsius and Fahrenheit display modes. I'd recommend you set this before fitting the drive unless you have...

Advantages: One of the biggest bangs you can get for your money Disadvantages: none that i have found
...I built a new pc with one of these as the heart the brain, sat on an Asus P5B Deluxe motherboard
2GB of Dominator ram a 250 GB sata11 hard drive, graphics powered by a Sapphire radeon x1950pro card all in an Antec 900 gaming case.
Cooling for the processor was provided by Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro CPU cooler .
The Intel e6600 was chosen for its price and proformance (and if you want to push it a little it can hit 3 GHz with no problems) without cooking its self.
I spent 9 months looking at processor prices to power ratio and with a good motherboard (Asus P5B Deluxe motherboard) you can’t help but build a very fast reliable computer.
With the pure speed and power available on this chip makes it a winner every time.
A+ from me and my PC...

Advantages: Good case, roomy, easy to install components, included PSU and fan of high quality. Disadvantages: Rubber stoppers on the bottom fall off often (this is a very minor niggle though)
...the front and a large processorcooler.
Temperature wise it has kept very cool, but that could be due to the extra fans I installed.
The inside of the case is very roomy, with room for a huge-ass graphics card should you wish to install one.
There are rubber stoppers stuck on the bottom of the case, but these tend to fall off easily which is not ideal, but if you don't plan to move your PC often, or have a movable base for it then this is not an issue.
As I have not had any problems worth contacting customer support about, I don't know what it is like first hand, but I know others who have had nothing but first class service from Antec....
