Antec NX410 Mid-Tower Case Review

Complete System

The case may be somewhat compact, but it’s clearly competent. It managed to house a massive MSI gaming motherboard, which is a bit wider than ATX (E-ATX) just fine, and there’s still some room for cable routing there too.

There’s no vertical pass-through for the GPU cables, but there are routing holes nearer the motherboard, so that wasn’t too big of an issue.

There’s good clearance for a large GPU, although I think some of the bigger RTX 3080’s may be a bit too big, so make sure you measure up the clearance before you order all your components. The large 140mm front fans are awesome though, as that gives you a big wall of cool air right into the GPU.

CPU cooler clearance is excellent, and most 120mm fan models should fit with ease. Plus, with that mesh front panel and the three pre-installed fans, stock airflow is pretty significant. Don’t forget there’s an intake for the PSU, and ventilation/mounts on the top section.

The ARGB on the fans is a cool addition too, especially at this price range. It makes customisation a breeze, as you can just tap the RGB button on the front panel to cycle through all the various colours and effects.

They’re pretty vibrant too, and certainly better than I expected. They’re not quite as colourful as a set of aftermarket Corsair fans for example, but then again, these cost less than Corsair fans and come free with an entire PC case!

Still, when they look as good as this, I doubt anyone is going to complain, they’re nice and bright and they push a good amount of air.

The range of colours and effects covers all the usual stuff, from fades to blinks.

Plus, with the mesh front panel the light isn’t too in your face, but shows through the mesh well enough to add some visual flair to the case its self.
