The ultimate airflow case - Antec 900

[dicko_11_is]

Hi all

I'm almost done building a pc myself for the 1st time and very happy with how it's turning out, thank you to anyone who has answered questions I've had recently.

I live in the north of Australia where it gets very hot so I wanted to set up great airflow to keep everything cool.

I took my antec case and bought a spare 2nd hand to steal fans etc from.

3x120mm intakes at front
120mm intake on side window panel.
200mm big boy exhaust on top
120mm exhaust and radiator at the rear.

The airflow even with all fans on low is insane, and very quiet on low as well.

I got lucky with my i5 7600k and have a stable 4.8ghz OC with only 1.24v, average temp in aida64 stress only 58c. The step up to 5.0ghz is a jump, 1.34v, temps mid 70's.

The rest of the gear:
Mb: Asus strix z270f gaming
GPU: Gigabyte xtreme gaming gtx1060 6GB OC
Ram: Gskill 16gb DDR4 2666mhz
Cooler: Deepcool gamerstorm captain 120ex
Psu: corsair gs800.

Just waiting on some better looking threaded red cables and it's done

I'm pretty sure that's the Antec 1200 (I owned one previously and the 902).

Nice build!

Nah definitely a 900 v3. I've added the 3rd front fan. It does look like the 1200 now but it's a fat mid case

Oh ok, yea I see now you took out the top drive bays for another fan, nice, I like that.
