Antec reuses its corporate colors for its packaging. A robust case capable of cushioning any blow.
The box is perfectly protected with quality polystyrene.
Manual in several languages (including Spanish).
Front view of the box. We can incorporate two optional fans.
On the front panel includes two USB 3.0 ports, audio in / out, on / off and reset buttons.
Left side view.
One of its most important features is the incorporation of a filter in the ground. Which is located under the power supply. Remember to clean it every two months.
Right side view. In it we must highlight the possibility of installing a 120 mm fan to cool the rear of the socket. Overclock inside?: =)
The top comes with a 140mm fan and two 19/13 tube outlets for external liquid cooling.
The box includes 4 fairly high rubber feet, which will allow good cooling.
Back view of the box.
The screws are easy to open and somewhat flat.
The box includes a small fan controller (rear and roof) with two speeds: High and Low.
One of the improvements in its interior is the great width that we have on the left side to house all the cables.
Inside view.
In the new versions of boxes it includes a system of easy installation of optical units.
The fountain will rest on two steel sheets and underneath will have a filter so that the dust does not arrive inside the box.
The cooling system is not far behind. With a rear 120mm TriCool fan and a 140mm ceiling fan. Although we would have liked it to include a front one to create a perfect climate inside the box.
Although the box is intended for mid-range users, it does include a cable router (lacks profilers) very useful for hiding / computer all cables.
Among its accessories we find the anchors for hard disks and the necessary hardware for the installation of all the components.
Antec has redesigned the new Antec Three Hundred TWO. Among its improvements we find: more innovative chassis, new front panel, compatibility with 2.5 ″ hard drives / SSDs, rear filter and two USB 3.0 ports.
WE RECOMMEND YOU Review: Antec ISK110 VESAThe box allows us a wide range of possibilities in terms of refrigeration. It incorporates a 12 cm rear fan and a 140 mm ceiling fan. Although we would have liked it to include one on the front for a perfect climax. It also allows us to install two fans on the front, and one on both sides.
Antec has thought of everything and has incorporated a cable router (without profilers) that will help collect the wiring and improve air flow.
We have tested the box with a state-of-the-art gaming system: Intel i5 2500K at 4.6GHZ, Prolimatech Megahalems, Asus Sabertooth, 8GB RAM, 128GB Crucial M4 SSD, GTX580 Direct CU II. And we have had excellent results: CPU of 30º in idle and 65º in full. While the graph has not passed 29º in idle and full 66ºC.
If you are thinking of mounting a new Gaming PC good, nice and cheap. The ideal box is the Antec Three Hundred Two, due to its design, cooling, compatibility with graphics cards and its unbeatable quality / price ratio (€ 65).
