Antec Twelve Hundred

By David Murphy (maximumpc.com)

You will not find a more powerful air-cooled case on the market than Antec's Twelve Hundred-not unless you strap a box fan to the side of your chassis. That's what it would take to challenge the cooling prowess of this full-tower enclosure, which ...

More cooling than a wind tunnel, elegant design, USB and eSATA front-panel connectors

A tight horizontal fit, drive installations take forever, no screwless mounting

We liked the Antec Nine Hundred, but we expected the Twelve Hundred to improve on its predecessor's shortcomings-such as the narrow body and overly complex drive installation. Antec has done nothing to fix these issues. We could excuse these things in ...

New Zealand PC World Magazine > Antec Twelve Hundred

By Scott Bartley (pcworld.co.nz)

Now that respected PC hardware manufacturer Antec has a local distributor (the similarly named, but no relation, Altech), Kiwis can finally get their hands on Antec products, and about time too, they come with a stellar reputation

At 513mm deep and 538mm high the case is large and heavy (14.5kg) but even so, the lack of depth means the interior can be surprisingly cramped as there's not much room between the rear of the drive bays and the motherboard. This, and the fact the ...

Antec Twelve Hundred

By (pcmweb.nl)

US Note: This is an automatic translation. The text can differ from the original review.

Antec Twelve Hundred is the current flagship of the line gaming. The closet is a huge development in the popular Nine Hundred case, with twelve drive bays, seven expansion slots and a large number of fans .

+ solid construction + attention to detail

- expansion shields without screwdriver to remove

The Twelve Hundred is a great PC enclosure which almost every detail is finished.

By TheMurph (maximumpc.com)

You said it yourself: the Nine Hundred had all the same flaws. While it was the best-of-the-best for its time, there are far better cases -- including full-tower cases -- than a (slightly larger) carbon-copy of the Nine Hundred's design.

By pcwizmtl (maximumpc.com)

I love the 900... but it gets really cramped when you stuff that hardware... I agree with the reviewer, wider. I'd even replace that wimpy side fan with a fan equivalent to the top fan.. or bigger. I dont agree with the front panel either, it looks bett...

By tehR0XX0Rz (maximumpc.com)

Customer reviews have been overwhelmingly positive, so I ordered one with an Antec 1000-watt power supply the other day. I've always been impressed by the quality of Antec cases, and I have no doubt I'll be happy with this one. I do hope I'll have room...
