A Truely Great Case!
Pros: Good looking, Steel, Good Airflow, Big Case, Adjustable Fan Settings, Dust Filters
Cons: A Bit Noisy, Some of it is made of plastic (External)
Before we start, I would like to say that this is my first review so I might make a few mistakes
That being said, lets get on to the review!
Design: The 1200 v3 is a very beautiful case. Its aggressive looking design in that gorgeous black makes it look very attractive. You will certainly love the looks of this case. However, looks aren't all, what about the inside you say? Well to start it off, the inside is made of pretty nice steel. Also, it has good cable managment, you can put your wires through the back of the case and then connect it to whatever using other holes closer to the part. This makes for good airflow and a cleaner looking system.
Airflow Performance: The Antec 1200 v3 has six 120mm fans and one big 250mm "Big Boy" fan. This makes for great airflow in the case. Also the cable management makes it even better. With my 6970 OC'd to 975/1475, it usually stays at 44c idle and 68c load.] Airflow is definitely not an issue with this case.
Sturdiness: This case is a pretty strong and heavy case. Its made of steel on the inside and on the outside there is some plastic on the top and the sides of the front. The plastic doesn't feel cheap though, its ok. All-in-all, this is a nice sturdy case.
Cons: The cons of this case are very minor. At the maximum fan settings it can get a bit noisy. At the lowest it still makes a little noise but it much quieter IMO. Another con is that a little portion of the case externally is made out of plastic, but this isn't cheap plastic. These cons are really just minor and me being picky.
Final Thoughts: This case is amazing! The airflow is nice, wire management is a plus, and it is pretty sturdy! I give this case a 9/10 and consider it worth the price ($159 as of time the review was posted)
Thank you for reading my first review I have made, I hope to review more stuff later on!
