Conclusions
Hardware Secrets Golden Award

Antec Three Hundred is an inexpensive mini-tower case targeted to exigent users. Here is a summary of what we found about this case.



Strong Points

  • Terrific cost/benefit ratio.
  • Good construction quality. No sharp edges where you could cut yourself while building your PC.
  • One 140 mm and one 120 mm fan with individual three-speed controller.
  • Six bays for hard disk drive, an outstanding quantity even for high-end users.
  • Thumbscrews for fastening the hard disk drives.

Weak Points

  • Doesn’t come with floppy disk drive adapters.
  • No screwless mechanisms for holding daughter boards, optical drives or hard disk drives.
  • No anti-vibration mechanisms for the hard disk drives.

In summary, this case provides a terrific cost/benefit ratio for mainstream users looking for a small yet powerful case. You can even build a high-end gaming machine using this case (you will probably need to add extra fans). It comes with an outstanding number of hard disk drive bays – six –, a quantity not easily found even on more expensive cases.
