Can the Antec 902 case bring anything new to this popular design?

very reliable on keeping your hardware cool not so great that it didnt come with a side led fan so i took out the back fan from my old case and put it in the new one and took the led fan on the new case and put it on the side door to show off the hardware! its easy to open up .

Great case. Cools VERY well (i was able to get processor down to about ambient room temperature with my Zalman 9700 with all fans on high). However at high setting it gets quite loud! very quiet at low settings though and still cools well.

I am not what you'd call a professional computer builder, but I am very passionate about it.

Numerous drive bays, fan placement very flexible; airflow outstanding; looks great; sturdy

No hinged side panels; short fan cables

Reliability

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Attractive Design; Durable; Easy To Install; Quiet

Continuing our spate of Antec case revamp reviews, today we have the baby of the bunch, the Nine Hundred two v3. Sure it's a few hundred Antec numbers below the Twelve Hundred we reviewed recently, but it's a lot more than the P193 right? In numbers anyway.

Looks good; Painted interior; Good cable management; Strong and quiet cooling; Added USB 3.0 port

No PSU air intake; Panels arn't the strongest; V3 additions arn't well realised

When you're building a PC you want your PC to look very good too. Computer Cases come in all shapes, sizes and colours. Most importantly is the quality and optimal cooling of the case. The Antec 902 full tower is a suitable choice because in design and quality it's very good.

Easy to work with; great coolers and filters

motherboard plate is not removable

The DF-85 is the top banana of Antec's premier Dark Fleet range of gaming cases. It's gone for the full killer-cyborg-from-the-future look for this hefty tower chassis, opting for an aggressive rather than stylish aesthetic.

Overall this is an amazing case, if you're a big neat freak, I would suggest against buying it as there isn't much in terms of cable management in the case.

Awesome Case Looks Great Plenty of Cooling options

Poor cable management; I can't get over this one enough; I bought the case knowing about the lack of cable management, but unfortunately even with cable ties, it's not a great solution
