Antec Intros Gaming Series Three Hundred Two Case

Antec decided it was about time it launched another case, so it pulled out all the big guns and added a new member to the Gaming Series.

The desktop chassis that Antec has just formally announced is called Gaming Series Three Hundred Two and supports mini-ITX, micro ATX and ATX motherboards.

It boasts 11 drive bays, six of which are tool-less 3.5-inch bays (for HDDs), two are for SSDs (2.5-inch) and the remaining three are for ODDs (5.25-inch external bays, also tool-free).

In addition to that, Three Hundred two features eight expansion slots, a bunch of fans (120mm or 120mm), and a perforated front bezel, for extra air intake.

What's more, the company made the interior spacious enough that the maximum CPU cooler is 6.7 inches (170 mm) and the maximum graphics card length is 12.5 inches (318 mm).

“The Three Hundred Two is an excellent enclosure for those who want to build a reliable, long-lasting PC,” said Mafalda Cogliani, global marketing director for Antec.

“The enclosure has great cooling and expandability options, making it the perfect choice for anyone looking to build a new and affordable gaming PC with high functionality and design.”

As one can probably suspect, Antec gave its product a large CPU cutout and the obligatory I/O panel (it is set on the front). Two USB 3.0 ports are there, along with audio connectors (in/out).

All in all, the Antec Gaming Series Three Hundred Two measures 513 mm (H) x 229 mm (W) x 471 mm (D), or 20.2 (H) x 9 (W) x 18.5 (D) inches.

Sales should have already begun, for the price of $79.95, or 61.45, according to exchange rates.

The offer includes two TwoCool fans, but users will have the option of buying up to four others, even a CPU exhaust fan that is supposed to lie behind the motherboard (120mm).

Finally, a cable management system makes sure that the inside of the PC main unit always looks orderly (and enhances ventilation), while the power supply compartment and the front intake keep things clean with washable air filters.
