If you are a first time builder, do NOT get that Antec 900. I built a system with that case and it was the worst designed case I ever used. It was a pain to add drives and there is no room for running cables!

The manual for it is horrible with very poor tech support for it.

Yes it does a great job keeping things cool, but you can find a case that does as well but is better designed.

I have built over 30 systems in my time, and I would never use that case again! It is for the more advanced builder, since Antec just assumes you know what you are doing.

that case is amazing. its huge on the inside, hdd/optical dive bays are very well designed and both panels come off easily with plenty of room for cable management. I haven't put together my pc yet but the case is just very well designed.
