Antec Nine Hundred Two (902) Review

Posted by: David Mitchelson () on: 04/08/2009 02:01 PM [ Print | -21 comment(s) ]

Installation

Installation was relatively trouble-free although I would say that the space that you are left to deal with when the motherboard is installed is quite limited. The Nine Hundred Two allows for the length of an 8800GTX (10inches) to just about fit inside. So you should be able to install most of the graphics cards on the market to date. The GTX 2xx series comes in at just over 10 inches, this will be quite a squeeze. Just observe where the PCI-e power connectors are as if they are on the very end of the card, you might have some difficulties plugging these cables in.

Similar to the GPU, if you are planning to host a tower style cooler the CPU heatsink can appear to be rather close to the top mounted 140mm fan. However this has its benefits because with the two devices being quite close, this allows some additional cooling that you wouldn’t usually receive in another case.



With the close surroundings inside put aside, this is room enough for gamers. After all the Nine Hundred Two is a gaming case and is not directed towards system builders that require masses of space for water cooling and other components. Gamers largely install their kit and leave it.

Almost all of the devices you will install inside the Nine Hundred Two will require the trusty screwdriver to make an appearance. It would have been nice to see some tool-less design ideas go into this revision.
