    Antec 300 cable management

    I am building one of my friends a system and I chose the antec 300 presently for the reason that it looked similar to a superior cheap case. Merely difficulty is it looks similar to there is zero potential for cable management w/o modding. Anybody have several pics of antec 300's w/ cable management. No mods in it of course. Hi did I want to drill a number of holes on the antec case. I required purchasing a cooler master haf 922. But in view of the fact that I have previously had this case in view of the fact that day one when I first started my rig. I determined to maintain it and utilize it as an alternative of purchasing another case.

    You have to use extensions for the 24Pin ATX and 4Pin ATX power cables. If you are looking at drilling holes in the substructure to mount your PSU face down. You are in addition looking at case holes to route the wires, as you be able to observe from the pics it’s not bad the technique it is, but there constantly room for development. If you desire to paint the inside of the 5.25" Bay Cage black, but it is similar to the silver so you determine to leave the rest of the case.

    Approximately no cable administration in the 300. In addition the 300 does not come with the front fans. The antec 900 has ok cable administration but at least comes with the entire the fans. The 902 has the most excellent cable administration of the three, washable air filters and I consider built in fan controllers similar to the 1200. If it's in your budget absolutely get the 902.

    Yes it seems similar to a lot of work for a case I am swapping out in 30 days or so for one that has pre-made holed. Ultimately I determine to be giving this one to my GF and building is an apparatus that determine to work Diablo 3, imagine though I determine to work into the similar problem there but you would not necessitate an innovative apparatus until closer to D3 launch. I might have my friend power coat it previous to then anyway so perhaps I determine to wait to mod it too much in anticipation of subsequent to I yank the guts back out and it is Empty. Really desire it had an exhaust port under the PSU as well. Attractive much devastate of a red LED on the PSU when it points down into the floor of the MB.
