Exclamation Quetion aboutn the Antec 300 Case

i was wondering if the fans at the front(2 120mm) are provided or not
also would my system specs be improved in this case?
my current case is an Apevia X-Cruiser black, i don't like it because of the 80 MM fans are not very efficient

Its a pretty safe bet that your temps will imporove. I used to have an Apevia case, not the greatest quality, but pretty good for a cheap, good looking case. And sadly i dont believe that the 300 has stock 120's in the front, but depending on your situation, those shouldnt be all to expensive. If you have more money you may want to look at stepping up to the Antec 900, that has better cooling solution, has some better features, larger, and its an Antec which has amazing quality.

I just bought my Antec 300 and no there are no fans up front. They only give you a black non LED 120mm on the back and a blakc non led 140 on the top back. The front gives you two spots for 120mm's and a 120mm spot on the door. That's about it, 5 spots only two fans.

Do you want lights in the front or no. Its just a personal preference. LED fans have lights, usually 3-4 around the edge of the fan. But as far as LED fans being better, there is no really difference between 2 similar fans.
