Antec ISK-600 mITX Chassis Review

Exterior

The left, top and right sides of the chassis are made from a single piece of aluminium and held in place by three thumb screws on the back of the chassis. There is some ventilation at the front left and some extra ventilation on the left side of the front panel.

The right side mirrors the left offering two more ventilation areas.

The front panel features a nice clean look, with a slim 5.25″ drive bay at the top, a clear strip in the middle with blue LED back lighting, and the main I/O panel at the bottom.

There is a single USB 3.0 port, HD audio connections, a USB 2.0 port, and the master reset and power buttons.

Around the back you’ll find a pre-installed 120mm exhaust fan, a PSU connection which is actually an internal extension cable as the PSU is mounted towards the front of the chassis. Finally we also have two expansion slots, perfect for a dual slot GPU or similar expansion card.

The bottom of the chassis features a little extra ventilation as well as four thick rubber feet that should help reduce vibration and also keep the chassis from sliding around on your desk / TV stand.

The aluminium panel is really nicely finished with a brushed effect, it’s actually got quite a bit of texture to it compared to most brushed aluminium and the grooves catch the light rather nicely.
