Product Reviews
Excellent case
os:
Not ApplicableWhilst I can appreciate the comments by the previous reviewer that the motherboard is bit squeezed on installation, I honestly can't fault it in any other respect.
For a start it comes with the 550W TruePower Trio PSU - not the TruePower II as in the specs. This is brilliant, as the Trio by itself is £70 on ebuyer! The cooling is also excellent, with a large and speed adjustable fan installed at the rear and space for two fans to cool the well-spaced drive bays at the front. I'd highly suggest getting the two front fans (about £4 each on ebuyer for proper Antec ones) - they keep my WS Raptors at a cool 27C (down from 45C without all fans off).
If you're looking for a very well built no-nonsense case, this is it. It has no silly flap at the front and includes a brilliant PSU to boot.
Compact and Solid in Build
os:
OtherI have recently completed the installation of a Windows 2003 Server using the Antec Atlas case.
It not only looks professional, I also found it to be compact, solid in design, and easy to install all the hardware required to make it a viable Domain Controller for a small gigabit speed business network.
My only concern was that there would be sufficient room to house a standard ATX motherboard, however, my fears were unfounded in this respect.
The PSU is reasonably quiet and is certainly adequate to power a server running in a small network.
I will certainly purchase this case for all future server builds.
Average
os:
Not ApplicableThings are a tight squeeze with the striker exteme motherboard and an Nvidia 8800GTS graphics card. There is no motherboard tray to build the computer up on a desk but it is easy to open and close with the thumb screws. Fitted with a couple of Antec 92mm fans on High as well as a 80mm fan and 2 exhaust fans and it still gets very hot inside albeit running a quad core processor, not the best piece of kit for overclocking but it should last well.
PSU issue
os:
Windows XPThe case itself is fantastic! Well put together, plenty of room for hard drives, cooling etc. The shock mounts for the hard drives are a great feature. I built a raid 5 storage server for a customer using one. 6 weeks in and the PSU has failed. No warning, burning smell and pop!
The case is great, but don't trust the PSU on a business critical installation.
price?
any idea why this has gone up by 36 quid? was thinking of buying one when it was 89, but the price suddenly shot up
Ebuyer note: Ebuyers cost prices are very volatile at the moment due to exchange rate fluctuations, plus Antec have applied a cost increase on all their products this week. i have adjusted this one back to a normal margin level but it is still more expensive than it was last week.
