Antec Constellation C8 White Dual Chamber Case Review

Antec has gone all-out with their latest PC case, the Constellation C8 Dual Chamber, an E-ATX beast of a case that’s built to handle the latest and greatest gaming hardware on the market with room to spare for extreme cooling, and laid out in a way that makes it perfect for showcasing your next build! Of course, there’s no shortage of large PC cases these days, with the likes of Thermaltake, Corsair, Cooler Master, and countless others all having broadly similar and competitive products of their own, so the C8 is going into a very popular and well-catered market right now, but that doesn’t mean there isn’t room for one more, so I’m eager to see how the Constellation C8 holds up. Looking at the spec sheet for it, it looks like it’s in good shape though, so let’s dive in!

Constellation C8 Dual Chamber

The Antec C8 Dual Chamber E-ATX PC case features a 4mm tempered glass side and front panel, with a bevelled edge to give it a clean pillarless design on the corner for 270 degrees of view to show off your hardware. There’s room for an E-ATX motherboard, large ATX PSU, any of the biggest GPUs on the market, thicker radiators, and support for relatively uncommon 160mm fans, as well as the usual 120mm and 140mm, of course.

The Antec C8 White is a mid-tower PC case with a focus on cooling and compatibility. Here are some of its key features and specifications:

With a dual chamber design, it’ll put all the fun stuff up front, with room at the back for your PSU, storage, and extensive cable routing options. Best of all, is that it’ll support extra-thick radiator setups too, for extreme cooling performance.

As a child still in my 30's (but not for long), I spend my day combining my love of music and movies with a life-long passion for gaming, from arcade classics and retro consoles to the latest high-end PC and console games. So it's no wonder I write about tech and test the latest hardware while I enjoy my hobbies!
