Antec GX330 Mid-Tower Chassis Review – A Diamond in the Rough?

A Closer Look – Exterior


The GX330 has that classic Antec look to it. It’s not the first chassis they’ve made like this, however, what was once their more high-end designs of days gone by are now their more affordable models. That being said, I like the aggressive Sci-Fi vibe it has. It’s more Battlestar Galactica than it is subtle. A huge side panel window, made from tinted perspex, and a mixture of strong angles and sweeping curves make up the bulk of the chassis.

The strong lines continue up top, with a 360mm long ventilated panel and room for 3 x 120mm behind it.

A large power button that looks pretty cool, I’m guessing “A” for Antec, but it resembles Assassin’s Creed logo too I think. There’s a slider behind it, allowing you to turn the fans to low or high. However, the central location turns them (and their LED lighting) off entirely.

Tucked into the top of the front panel, you’ll find a pair of USB ports and HD audio jacks. It’s nothing too fancy, but enough to get the job done.

Tucked in the middle a blue LED lightbar, which I’ll show you in action shortly!

Down the right side, just a metal panel. However, it has an embossed design to provide more cable routing space behind the motherboard.

Pre-installed Fans

Around the back, we have a 120mm fan mount at the top, and seven expansion slots below that. It’s all pretty standard stuff, but that’s hardly a bad thing.

Cheap chassis often use snap-off covers too, and I’m happy to report these are actually reusable metal covers; woo-hoo!

On the base, a snap-in mesh filter for the PSU, which isn’t great, but it’s certainly better than nothing.
