Antec presents the chassis of the central tower of the nx500 and nx600 models

Antec now offers two new box options for players. These central tower boxes are the NX500 and NX600 models. The two are almost identical in size, although they vary both in style and interior. The two join Antec's NX series 'gaming' line of chassis, now with up to 7 models to choose from.

Antec NX500 and NX600 are now available in stores

First off, the NX500 measures 490 x 220 x 440mm and has a unique left front mesh illuminated with asymmetric diagonal angle RGB LEDs. Meanwhile, the right side of the front panel is basically a raised part with a simple design. The left side uses a tempered glass side panel, as usual, and the upper area is fully ventilated.

The NX600, on the other hand, also has a tempered glass side panel, and it also adds it on the front. This allows some of the internal RGB LED lighting to be lit from the front. Although behind a hexagonal mesh pattern, RGB LED fans will not be fully visible. It measures 495 x 220 x 430mm, making it a little taller, but it has 10mm less space.

As for the CPU cooler and video card, the two chassis vary slightly. The NX500 can accommodate CPU coolers up to 170mm in height, while the NX600 can only support heatsinks up to 165mm in height.

Meanwhile, the graphics card support is up to 330mm on the NX500, but the NX600 can support cards up to 350mm in length. The power supply length bracket is also better on the NX600 model, which can fit up to 190mm, while the NX500 model has a maximum length of 170mm.

Both are now available in Spain. The NX500 costs 93 euros, while the NX600 costs 110 euros.
