Just hearing Jay say he is building a PC makes me smile. I could watch those all day in real time.
loved Antec back in the day - had an antec 1200 huge airflow case, saw me thru x58 to current ryzen system - got corsair crystal 570x now, sold the antec 1200 to bloke who is using it as server case due to awesome airflow, 15 years later and still getting used

Yep, still rocking 2 x original Antec 300 cases, they've contained a few different setups over the years, I've had to replace the fans but the cases are still going strong
So glad you did this video as I just updated my build in this same case. It was a DREAM to build in. Roomy, lack of razor edges, and cable routing was easy. Used two of their 5 pack Sync fan sets.
Had a few Antec cases. In particular, i still use a 300. That thing was built like a tank. It's ALMOST IBM server tower quality, but IBM built those like nuclear silos. Even empty, it takes one man a broken back insurance to move it about.

+1 for the original three hundred cases
I'm glad to see people starting to buy antec. built my first pc using them. Never looked back.
One of my first purchases for my personal PC was an Antec 900. Great case. Great company.
Last PC I built was in the Antec Performance Series P120. Very similar to this. It's been working great.
No fans on the back panel just makes it feel unfinished or missing something. I'm sure that's just my OCD.
About a year ago I decided to build myself a new PC. Was looking on Amazon for parts. Really fell in love with the Antec Dark League DF700 Flux White case. Love the look and the air flow.
My very first PC that I built was in an Antec Plus 1080 Full Tower case *with Window*. AMD Athlon 2K and I had around 10 fans in that thing. UV Cold Cathode and round IDE, Glow-in-the-Dark cables. I miss that case, I miss all the room in it. Good on Antec for sticking with it this long!
Antec evokes memories of when id Software were still a thing.

im still using an Antec P182 case for my Ryzen 5 1600 build. I love how quiet it is along with how much space I have to work in and how many storage drives I can have in there.
i use an " ANTEC LANBOY AIR " with 2 water cooling loops 1 with 240mm rad an 1 140mm rad for the g12 g-card set up 10 fans 4 blowing directly at the motherboard 2 above the gpu 2 below, best case ive ever owned ive had it 5 years now modded it a few times to suit different things currently a 11600kf an gtx108ti .love would not change it, , also drives bays are old school we have m.2 now so you don't need drive bays or many drive bays
Currently using Antec DH 700 Flux. I've had a couple years now. Love it. Awesome air flow. No issues at all. Easy to build in.
Im running an old Antec Lanboy that's yellow and black, definitely don't have to worry about Air flow except when it gets dust over the years clogging it. What i loved most about it was the easy to carry for the Enemy Territories landpartys friends and i had growing up .
My first build was in a 1st gen Antec Sonata, loved that case
Wow, this was beautiful. I love the all-white theme. So so so so pretty
I still run an Antec 1200 case. It was my first Custom PC case and I've just upgraded it over time. I love the look of it and that with the fans in the front and top, looking like a beast. I've swapped all the fans out for ARGB ones over time and cut one of the HDD cages to allow for longer length GPUs. I've also recently created a PSU cover out of Acrylic to create a basement to hide cables in. Next time I upgrade I'm going to make a cut out for ease of installing tower or liquid coolers to the CPU as it's the only thing now it really needs in terms of mod-cons.
Well this is fantastic timing, I’ve just started looking for a white PC case for my next build.
I'm using an Antec 1FT Performance which I bought following your review Jay. Best case I've ever used, excellent options for cable management, clean look, great airflow (I use a 360 AIO for CPU cooling) It also has a digital display panel which shows the CPU or GPU temp and it has been handy when gaming to be able to see temps without something on screen. I love it so thanks for reviewing it.
A very pleasing looking build.
My latest build was in an Antec DF600 Flux, great budget case, was very easy to build in and excellent quality.
Your Antec performance 1ft review got me to buy one, I love the display for cpu and gpu temp as well as the companion software is awesome

Same reason why I bought the case.
Looking to build a new pc soon and your videos have made it alot easier and given me a better understanding about pc parts. Thank You.
Nice to see something new and modern from Antec
Excellent video edit here, I loved the pc building part of the video with music! Great work J!
My first antec case was before cases had side fans or top fans and 120mm was the absolute max. I cut new fan mounts out by hand, drilled and grinded, and did wet-sanding multiple paint layers to mirror shine, all by hand back then. AMD Athlon 1500+!
I wish i could hang out with you guys for a day. Watching you build pcs brings back so much nostalgia and great memories.
I love your vids man you’ve helped me with tech so much!!
Antec has a few new cases that recently caught my attention. I was actually loooking for the In Win D Frame case and Antec's new Supreme Series cases popped up as alternatives. One is the Antec Cannon and the other is the Antec Striker. They both integrate mounting for water cooling parts on the exterior of the case and the parts become part of the exterior aesthetic.
Still running my Antec 900, now on its 4th set of fans, except the big top one which is still original.
Yes!! Finally!! Miss these, you’re the best
I am using the Antec p120 crystal it has a top mounted psu I like the fact dust filter comes out the front easily
had an antec kuhler for my fx9590. worked great!
Great look. Something I would have on my desktop.
My first build was in an Antec P160 window case. The motherboard was a DFI LanParty Pro 875B. I've still got it in the loft somewhere.
Nice build and case, love the smoke machine visual
Its freakin awesome ! Great job Jay , great camera work Phil 🤘🏻🏁
HE DID ITTT. I commented to build in the case last vid what luck I just bought this beauty and I’m doing a water cooling build in it
Perfect build music 😮❤❤❤
I'm still running my ANTEC DF700 flux :) Love the case, great airflow.
beautiful looking
A long time since i used an Antec case, & rocked it with BitFenix fans. The old Antec Dark Fleet DF-35 i had. oh wow with the Intel Q9450 then got the i5-3570k. Man i miss the old days of cool stuff, now it's bling bling glass all over the joint & rgb fans. Bring back the old days cold cathodes lol.
Have several Antec cases. A pair of SX630s; and SX830 and SX1030 and several Solo's. Solid cases, clean lines.
beautiful build
My first 3 builds were all Antec. This is a nice case!
What an amazingly beautiful build!
I still have my Antec 300, would have loved a 900 back in the day the 1200 was awesome as well
Very nice looking build
good touch, finishing by presenting the air flow with smoke
Please do more build videos. I would love to see a best cpu gpu paring video from you Thanks Jay keep up the good work!
Built my machine using a P120 Crystal. It looks great and has tons of fan space.
I just finished a build in the NZXT H9 Flow and it's very similar to this case. Thanks to the popularity of the Lian Li 011 Dynamic, every manufacturer is doing their take on that 'fish tank' design. I'm a bit biased, but I like the design choices NZXT made on the H9 Flow over this one. The top and back panel mounts for radiators or fans are removable in the H9 Flow where these are fixed. Being able to remove the mounting plate from the case, mount your radiator or fans and then install them all at once as a unit is really convenient. It's also nice when you need to change something in your build that requires you to remove the fans or radiator, you can simply undo a couple of tumbscrews and pop the whole assembly out and then back in again rather than having to disassemle things and then put it all back together. Also in the H9 Flow there is a panel on hinges that covers the cable routing channel on the back side to cover up your lack of cable management (although it offers amazing cable management options, there's velcro straps that allow you to manage all your cables without having to use any zip ties) and that panel is where you can mount up to four 2.5" drives. Needless to say, I'm happy with my choice. Other than those few things though both cases are very similar and look fantastic IMO.
Effective, elegant and nice looking build!
My first build was with the Antec P120 and it's probably my favorite case. Very roomy, lots of air flow.
Thanks for the efforts!
I run a Antec Df600 and love it.
I had a Antec P180 may years ago, great case
My first build was in an Antec U50A back in the day. This look nice too.
Lots to like in that case. Sweet snow white build
Great vid, we needed a build video. Im running a Helios case with the front RGB glass removed. I love the case because of the airflow and build quality. I also love the weight and psu window for my Thor psu.
Beautiful build.
That really looks nice.
Good job Jay!!!
The computer pron montage got me really excited about computers again. Very good choice of music and editing 👍🏻
i have an Antec NX480 and it’s great, very budget friendly and beginner friendly too! i’ve been building for years, but i just wanted something to just get the job done
love building and shopping vids!!
9:35 Such a funny footnote to add there. I just update my PC case from NZXT S340 to an 011D and I upped my fans to 8 in total. Noticed all my RGBs werent working. To my simple brain, I knew it was a load issue but I never had to think about the issue before.
Antec 900. Loved that case!
Back in the day Antec was very high quality, hopefully they are going to make a full comeback. I had multiple antec cases and power supplies. I still have one PSU from over 20 years ago. Works great!
I love it, I love my current Antec DF700 Flux case too. My fans rarely ramp up, has to be summer time warm, and playing Cyberpunk 2077. I use the reverse fan in the bottom, blows right into my GPU too.
I love Antec as a brand. I think they make some of the most stunning cases around and some really unique designs too. Unfortunately I only have one Antec component for my upcoming first custom loop build and it's their Antec Signature 1000w Titanium power supply which looks like it was made via Seasonic which adds even more confidence in it's quality. it looks stunning as far as PSUs go so I can't wait to build with it.
Phill comes in clutch with that sick montage beat. lol
That's a pretty build!
Still have my Antec Nine Hundred case. It's not being used now, but it did house my home-built NAS at one point. I've thought about modifying it to take hot-swap drive bays instead of the terribly cumbersome HDD cages that come with it. I have a video on my channel that shows the move from the old Antec to a newer Antec VSK4000E-U3. I also had the aluminum Antec Super LanBoy case at one time.
My dream is an all white pc build similar to this. White builds w/ RGB look so clean
Just finished a micro atx build using an Antec CX200M case in white . It’s a cheap case but looks great with all white components.🙂
I had an antec I used from 01-24 full tower for my main builds. Solid heavy mother. Bought a 4000d for my new build put the antec back in the box and Amazon gave me my money back!!!!
I haven't thought about antecs Earthwatts psu in years, I used to have one in my old overclocked I7 3770k rig.
i used to rock an Antec dp502 flux case. I loved that case. I would still be using it if not for the NV5 from phanteks. That case is solid. I also have 7 d30 fans and the rgb kit for it as well. gonna keep a check on this series of cases to see if they make one similar to the nzxt h6 flow. that's the next case i'm going to buy for an intel sonic themed build.
Last Antec I built in was the 900 back when it was "the" case to have. Modified the crap out of it. Was a fun case for the time. I still even have it, sans the system that was in it which I gave to my ex. My silicon lottery winning E8400 at 4.1GHz on air...wish I could get that lucky again.
Clean nice looking build.
Very nice Antec case!
Last Antec case I got was a 900 that I purchased at Fry's Electronic in Anaheim off of La Palma early 2000s. I had a few P82s before that. Great cases and OK fans. I still have the case with the original fans still going Back then it was unthinkable to get anything at Microcenter and now Micro Center it's where it is.
omg the p180 and earthwatts psu. now those are throwbacks. i still use the earthwatts powering nas drives.
My first few cases were Antec case builds back in the day. Loved their piano black ones. Would love to see a dual chamber case that can support an external drive too! (IE blue ray or other type.)
I love that Antec is still around. I really wish they would bring back an updated version of their 900 and 1200 cases from back in the day. Those were the first higher-end cases I ever built in, and they were awesome. If they brought them back with some modern updates (PSU shroud, TG side panel instead of acrylic, front fan mounts instead of like 10 5.25 bays, USB-C on the front I/O, etc), they would be awesome!
I loved Antec back in the day, good value quality stuff. I think this is the updated O11D XL I really wanted.. Might grab this in black to mess with..
I have the same Antec C8 case but went with all corsair icue link RX and QX fans including LCD screen and corsair vengeance DDR ram. Even with a not so good looking gigabyte 4070 super windforce, the build still looks nice with the gray and black accents alongside the strong white overall.
That case is beautiful! Also it was about time to see a new build. I am one happy subscriber. :)
Yaaay jay I need more computer builds I love it
Absolutely sick looking build! Really makes me wish I built my own instead of buying a prebuilt 3 years ago.
All white looks so good
I loved Antec cases in the 2000s. I then switched to Lian-Li PC-7FNWB (with an Antec PSU still) in 2010, and then Phanteks Enthoo Evolv X which I'm currently using. I love the Evolv X, I don't think I'll ever switch. However a part of of me wants to go back to Antec or Lian-Li as it reminds me of a great time in PCs.
I had an Antec Skeleton. It was an open case with a giant fan on top. Still have it to this day.
I had 2 Antec cases in the past (1 x 300 and something else I can't remember) , I always liked their conservative styling. I actually did have a new Antec case in my virtual basket just 2 days ago, thinking about switching from the 5 year old NXZT case which is very restrictive as far as airflow.
Still have an Antec Truepower Quattro 1200w psu I bought back in 2010 and its still running!
Had the antec 1200 and loved it wish I still had it
Looks good,
Its nice to see Antec back in the consumer market. They were my choice of power supplies and I legit had no idea where to go after they seemingly disapeared and even today PSU reviews dont touch on quality as much as Id like them to.
