I bought this case for my home office after having a Lian Li full tower for many years which was just taking up more room. It was definitely a slight learning curve going from a huge case to something smaller but it worked. Pros: It's a nice case. All of the main components I had in my full tower fit in. It seems fairly quiet. The front USB 3 plugs do in fact get to USB 3 speeds. Having an optical disc drive is nice. The cable management system is nice. Cons: Going from a full tower to a mid tower, I had to remove the back panel fan and reinstall it to get the motherboard in. I needed to remove the 3.5 inch drive bays on the bottom to fit my power supply in, although it's possible that I could get it back in if I squeezed and rearranged a lot, but I just haven't tried. Also, the metal covers over the card slots on the back panel are a little bendable. It wasn't a problem for me only because I saw some other reviews mention this and I was very careful in how I removed the slot covers so as to not bend up the back panel. But as long as you're aware of that, it shouldn't be a problem.

I ended up getting the P7Neo. I'd say the overall the layout is decent. I was able to install a full-ATX motherboard in it, and it ends up right at the edge of the optical bay bracket. I don't have an optical drive installed currently, but it looks like you can get one in there with an ATX board installed. There are enough cutouts to make cable management fairly easy, and you can end up with a nice tidy case with clean airflow if you just take a little time getting things routed behind the backplane. There's enough room behind the backplane that you can actually run the cables back there without having to cram the rear hatch shut when finished, which is nice. It's not what I'd call roomy, but I've had cases in the past where you have to really mash the rear hatch to get it seal up right. The 3 included case fans don't exactly push a ton of air, but they stay very quiet, and I suspect the sound dampening side panels also help. Honestly, with my build, I can barely hear it under any workload (my GPU has an oversized cooler on it). A bit of heat can build up around the CPU area, and with no top opening or fan mounts, you may want to put something higher volume on the back to get that warm air out. The thickness of the materials are definitely on the lean side. I've never owned a case so light before. Once it's buttoned up, it's sturdy enough, so it's really not a concern for me. The light weight can maybe be a good thing when it comes to moving it around, but I would want something more durable-feeling if I regularly transported it. I did heed the other reviewers about removing the expansion slot dividers. The breakaway design is obviously a cost-save move, but you do want to be careful so you don't mangle things. I recommend popping out the ones you need to remove before you mount the motherboard, as the back-n-forth wiggle to break them loose could potentially scratch the motherboard. My GPU is heavy and takes up 3 slots, but it only mounts to 2 expansion slots, and the end result is sturdy enough, IMO. If I had one wish, it would be to have more than just 2 USB-A slots on the top front. If you keep your case on the floor under a desk, those rear ports can be hard to get to, so I'd prefer 3 or more, but oh well. In the end, it's a worthwhile case, and I'd buy it again. It does the job without all the windows and RGB madness. My CPU (130W) isn't one of these modern-day space heaters, so I'd be a little hesitant to use this with any of your hotter running CPUs or with motherboards that produce a lot of VRM heat. It's fine for a midrange build, though.

Thin metal but still quality case. Plenty of airflow and lots of cable management. I can't attest how quiet it is as I added 3 more fans..total 6. I like the simple straightforward look.

Antec P7 NEO as of late July 2023 Please keep in mind when reading below, Antec may still be the best available. I had been Antec case exclusive for about 3 decades. I still use 3 'excellent' Antec cases! This case changed all that. Set your expectations low now and have less frustration. The bad stuff: The renowned Antec smoothed stampings are wasted with the sharp self tapping screws poking out in many places. It would not be difficult to draw blood reaching around sometime in the future if you forget where the spikes are. If it ever draws _power_ from a worn thru power cable that would be fun to watch but expensive as such things tend to be! It is very lightweight, not enough metal to be very quiet, it is so thin it will never dampen noise. My motherboard with heatsink has almost as much mass. 'They' know it is too thin, they had to add vibration dampening material to the sides! This case will not be quiet under load it lacks the gravity! It is 'lightweight' enough that I have concerns I will try and lift,move,position it by the top cover once I have a power supply and mobo installed and bend it. The rear 120mm fan is mounted over an opening only wide enough for an ~80mm fan. The 120mm fan axle/hub actually blocks much of it. Removing it might improve airflow. Front fan space is ALSO for small fans yet has 120mm fans installed. (tall and narrow like a cell phone video on a wide monitor) They rediculously provide mounting holes for(and advertise compatability with) 140mm fans. The case is plenty wide but the air path is narrow! If I were overclocking this build the case would already be on it's way back! Why make a wide case and not use some of the space for fan OPENINGS? I'll guess why, the metal is so thin they are afraid it won't stand on it's own if they cut big fan holes in it. The picture showing the back fan from inside the case is decieving, the air path is as tall as the fan but less than 2/3 as wide. How could this thing ever be quiet with the fans having to spin faster than they would with a properly sized airway? Back panel PCIe card slot covers are permanent break away junk. Many builders will curse that 'engineering' decision. It's not going to be easy to break out a slot cover with the motherboard installed. The whole PCIe card mounting screws portion of this case is ugly and akward. It's sticking out from the flat backside. On the plastic front panel, as mentioned by others, there is a large hole in the bottom front with no mesh grill to keep big stuff out. The air pathway in general is poorly designed. There are many places where air can go in circles thru the fans instead of out with the heat. If the front were airtight around the fans without the obstructions a rear fan could/would be un needed!!! The good news follows: The PSU space is actually 225mm deep with the hdd bracket mounted to front. My RM850x is 160mm plus ~15-20 mm for modular cables. My case arrived with frontward mounted hdd bracket unlike Amazon photos and published 170mm length. They may make this obvious error in the specs to discourage folks with beefy power supplies(heat) from purchasing it. I have narrower 3.5 HDD brackets too so I pulled the trigger knowing it would involve some change from what is pictured. I may not even ever mount a HDD in it. The small PCB holding the 3mm white LED near the front switch is removable. The switch LED and it's current limiting resistor on that removable PCB are thru hole parts making modding simple if it's annoying. It would also be trivial for a solderer type to repair a faulty switch. Another reviewer mentioned a bad switch issue. My revised build plan: I moded my case airway into usefulness with power tools but others may care about warranty. I will mask the many extra holes in the front to get proper thru flow of all the air. I will re-install Antec fans until I get some dark 4 pin 120mm fans. I planed on using 140's on front but wont waste the larger fans? I also planned on a glowing review of another Antec case. Oh well. I went hard on Antec because _THEY_ raised my expectations with ~3 decades of excellent products. It _will_ work as is, just not as quietly and cool as I had anticipated. You have been warned! :-) 2023/11/09 Edited to add: One of the supplied fans is already singing the song of it's people. Add a 120mm fan cost in addition to my time, tools, and materials to make it function as advertised.

Good case for anything but a true gaming PC. Decent air flow for most uses. Side panels have sound deadening material. No bling just clean looking. I wish I had an excuse to buy another.

My old case was a monster - it stuck out from it's nook in the desk by about 3 inches. I no longer needed a large disk array so when I was replacing other components I decided to replace the case as well. This case is smaller, but my very old case (I can't even figure out what brand), is pretty much higher quality across the board. In this case, the metal was thinner, the spare parts fewer, and overall lacked the same quality feel. This is a well made case, don't get me wrong, I was just spoiled by my great older case. Hence still earns 4 stars. Besides being smaller, this case had one other essential feature that seems to be harder and harder to find - a slot for DVD/CD drive.

Great case. Plenty of room inside for a full size motherboard. Not made out cheap metal or plastic.

(With apologies to Stephen King) this case proved bigger than I expected. It's a full 22cm (almost 9"). runs some 43cm (17" - plus space req'd for cords & plugs), and stands a full 48cm (46cm case, with 4-corner "feet" adding 2cm clearance - 19" tall). The attached cords (power button, fans, etc) are clearly labelled, but the instruction foldout of diagrams is a bit light on detail. All & extra screws & accessories were (including spare motherboard mounts & screws). While not fancy, the construction is solid, with discrete bays for power supply, hard drives, and the DVD drive. To be honest, the latter was my main reason for this purchase. Space for an internal CD/DVD drive seems to have become rare or obsolete in modern cases - and wanting one left me roughly 3 choices. This one looked best to me, and I'm quite happy with it (also cost less here than at Newegg). One last thing: the side panels both come off (easily), but the top-front power button & ports means no need to have to pop the front panel off - another plus in my book. I'm quite happy with my new giant, black tower !

大きな空間で、グラボも余裕で入りそうです。

Good quality material,

安い割には色々つけやすい、ちょっと不満があるとすればグラボのhdmiの差し込む所がねじで外すのではなく物理的に折るので新しいマザーボードでグラボの高さがズレたら前回開けた部分が穴が空いたままになるまぁこの安さらな個人的には気になら無い、気になるなら新しく他の買う あと電源の部分が狭いので強引に入れるしか無い 入ったので問題ない、普通よりでかい奴だときついかも

It is a closed box so you won't be able to see all the pretty lights on a new motherboard. If you have to use the 3.5 inch bays it could get a little crowded with the power supply cables, especially if it is a modular supply. I took it slowly and had no problem, - good value for the money.
