Review: Antec Fusion computer case

A stylish home theatre PC case

With its big volume control and cold-rolled steel chassis, this new Antec case resembles large hi-fi amplifiers from the late 1970s.

The inside has been split into three chambers to separate the heat and noise of the power supply (a 430W quiet PSU is ready fitted), hard drives and the motherboard. The dividing wall between the PSU section and the motherboard has a rounded-off hole for cable runs.

The motherboard section is cooled by two 120mm three-speed fans and, for extra CPU cooling, there is a convertible air guide. A nice touch is the inclusion of VFD (vacuum fluorescent display) at the front of the chassis.
