Review on ๐ŸŽฎ Antec NX420 Mid Tower ATX Gaming Case, Black - 360mm Front & 240mm Top Radiator Support, Tempered Glass Side Panel, USB 3.0 - Includes 1x120mm Regular Fan by Owoeye Reed

No sharp edges Accepts external components

I've done a lot of research on cases and found this company to have excellent service, warranty and a great product. This item is available in beige from Antec but I couldn't find it anywhere else so I chose grey/black here at Revein. I like the inside and outside of this case because there are no sharp corners or edges anywhere. The case came clean and had all the necessary components including a manual, 4 wrenches, bag of nuts and bolts, spare mobile stands and an 'Antec' name tag if you wanted to put it on the front. A 400W PSU is sufficient for most SOHOs. 2 The fans are built into the back panel and I noticed that Antec offers updated fans on their website. I would ask about their thermostatic case fans, but they are not offered with a new case purchase. I'll place the included fans in the front and buy thermostatic fans in the back for starters. It is likely that in the near future Antec will replace the PSU fans with a newer design consisting of a single 12cm or even a 14cm thermostatic fan. They move more air with less noise, dissipating heat below the power source. I absolutely love this thing. If Windows XP is running and you want to shut down the computer, this power supply will (I think) first exit Windows XP and automatically shut down and then shut down. The same way as if you ran "Start / Shut down computer / Shut down". It's not in the manual, but that's how it is. Thanks Revain also mentions the need as I would pay more for this item elsewhere as this item currently ships for $15 and Revain's price with shipping beats all others.
