Dimensions of the Antec 900?

[JohnJSal]

Can someone give the correct dimensions please? Antec's website and Newegg each list different dimensions.

(Antec's website gives dimensions nearly identical to the P182, and Newegg gives smaller dimensions. Newegg seems like it might be correct, given that the P182 is called a "super" mid-tower and so probably bigger. Although it's strange that the gaming case wouldn't be just as big or bigger.)

The first place to look is at the manufacturer's own information since they have to provide the accurate information on their own products. What neweggg did there was make up their own description to boost an intended customer's impression of the product just like seen on other items besides cases. Often information seen at vendors is incorrect until someone notices a mistake on things like specifications and it gets sorrected finally.

49cm deep, 46cm tall, about 20cm wide. That's what I measured, not sure how it compares.

Thanks very much. Those are pretty much the same as on Newegg. Antec's website must have it wrong then.

The actual measurements I come up with when using a tape measurer are:

Depth = 19 inch [international, U.S.] = 48.26 centimeter
Height = 17 inch [international, U.S.] = 43.18 centimeter
Width = 7.75 inch [international, U.S.] = 19.685 centimeter

Thanks. Then definitely it's smaller than the P182.

What happened at both newegg and Antec was obviously the rounded figure compared to measuring it yourself to see the actual physical dimensions. While a Stanley pocket tape isn't the most accurate you easily get the real world measurements over marketing product details.

Despite it being a little awkward directly behind the drive bays for plugging cables in and for those wanting to see water cooling reseroirs added in needing a full tower often it does seem to be a good flexible case. The product page at the link here has a short video clip on how to rearrange drive bays to watch. http://www.antec.com/us/productDetails.php?ProdID=15900

I put an Antec 120mm blue led fan facing out on the side vent there to compliment the two in the front, one rear, and Zalman 9700. Now to add some neon strips for a show case.
