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

A Closer Look – Interior


With the side panel removed, the interior looks pretty spacious. There are a large CPU cooler mounting cut-out and a plethora of cut-outs for routing various cables for your system. It’s nothing too fancy, but most of it will be hidden with the side panel installed anyway, so who cares.

There’s a half shroud in the base, hiding the storage bays, but strangely not the PSU.

There’s room for a good size ATX PSU here, and a bit of excess cable will tuck under that half shroud too. A cut-away at the front makes room for front panel radiators too if you need one.

Radiator Space

Further up the front panel, two additional 120mm fan mounts, with a single 120mm fan mount in the third slot at the bottom.

There’s a small L bracket on the interior here too, which can be used as a GPU support with longer cards. Handy and clever to integrate something like this in an affordable model too.

A rare thing these days, a 5.25″ drive bay up top. I’m happy to see it, as I regularly use a drive to backup my movies.

In the rear, another 120mm fan is pre-installed. As a welcome bonus, both fans are blue LED, matching the front panel lighting, which is gonna look great with the power on.

Behind the motherboard, there’s almost no room for cable routing. All your cables will generally want to come in the front section where there is a larger recess and the routing holes. However, for any other cables, there is a recess in the side panel that gives you more wiggle room.

For storage, you can mount a pair of 2.5″ drives here, with removable brackets to ease the install process.

You can add a further two drives in the bottom HDD caddy, which supports both 2.5″ or 3.5″ drives.

Dust Filtering

Behind the front panel, you can get easy access to those fan mounts. Furthermore, you’ll find it easier to clean the front filters, which are made from a dense foam mesh.

Finally, pull off the top panel, and you’ll find three 120mm fan mounts.

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!
