Antec Eleven Hundred Mid Tower Chassis Review

Looking inside the case you can see that Antec have tried really hard to make the layout of the interior user friendly.

Access to the 3.5″ drive bays is made from either side with space at the top to house two 2.5″ drives as well.

With 6 bays to choose from the tool-less accessory clips allow you to fix devices to the bays with ease. Towards the top of the case are three 5.25” optical drive bays which use a tool less quick release to make drive installation as easy as possible.

As we look past the drive bays onto the motherboard tray we see a selection of well positioned rubber grommets which allow tidy cable management throughout the case. Unlike some other cases we find that the motherboard stand-offs come pre-fitted for a quicker installation process.

Turning the Eleven Hundred around and looking at the rear side of the motherboard tray, we can see Antec have fitted a large cut-out that provides access to the CPU cooler back plate. This makes simple maintenance easy and straight forward. In addition to this the Eleven Hundred boasts a 36mm void to the rear of the tray which allows fans to be installed in this area as well as additional space for cable management.

One special feature that we like is the removable dust filters that slide out and clip off around the case. This gives you easy access for cleaning and general maintenance where necessary.
