Review on 💻 Antec NX200 M Micro-ATX Tower Computer Case with Pre-Installed 120mm Rear Fan, Enhanced Airflow & Ventilation, Mesh Front Panel Design, NX Series, Black by Richard Edwar

This case is an excellent value ($50). Pros:* Very, very compact Micro-ATX form factor* Space for 2x 3.5" HDDs and 1x 2.5x SSD* Space for 5x120mm fans* Metal is thin but thick enough not to feel like one of those $30 disk cases to the touch. Edges not sharp enough to cut with many rolled sheet metal edges.* Airflow is good, all front, top and back are fully perforated surfaces. Scam.* Includes lots of screws and standoffs* Very light weight* High quality USB connectors* Overall build Quality is very good for the price* Plenty of room and holes for cable management. I don't know why anyone can complain about this. The design is excellent. You can even pack a few extra cables and stash them next to the hard drive case. Cons: * Due to the many perforated surfaces, this case offers almost no sound insulation, even the expansion compartment closes it with holes. However, it is good for air circulation. * The magnetic side door cannot be locked. When you move it, the side door just swings open. I really don't understand why it is necessary to use magnets and not a latch to keep it closed. * The screw holes for attaching expansion cards to the back of the case were either unthreaded or poorly cut. None of the screws provided matched the thread size, I had to screw in the closest match I could find and I still had to clean up the little metal shavings that came out of the hole. Once, no big deal.*** If you plan to use a hard drive cage, make sure your power supply is no longer than 140mm and is non-modular. I bought a gigabyte PSU with modular connectors, its 150mm and with the extra volume of modular connectors it absolutely won't work. It was advertised as "compact" so make sure you do your homework. The smaller PSU you see in the attached photos is 140mm in diameter (an old Thermaltake PSU). After a long search for a really compact, non-modular power supply with good build quality, I was later able to stuff a non-modular Corsair CX650 here.
