Antec 1900 Gaming Case Review

Antec Nineteen Hundred Review

Introduction

As well as the increasing trend for SFF cases there does seem to be a compensatory, or perhaps conflicting, pull in the opposite direction with manufacturers unleashing ever larger enclosures on the unsuspecting public.  At 676mm high, the new Nineteen Hundred from Antec is one such case.  We have to admit to being quite excited when the Nineteen Hundred arrived as such large cases with long roofs and high front panels usually bring with them opportunities for large rad native water cooling and perhaps second build compartments.  A quick look at the spec sheet below will show you that the case is able to accept the large motherboards, along with tall CPU coolers, long GPUs and prolific storage.  We seem to be off to a good start then so let’s dig in and see what treasures the Nineteen Hundred reveals to us.
