Hi guys!

Despite its eminently portable frame, the Three Hundred has enough room for most of the latest flag-ship graphics cards, as well as six hard drives and a standard ATX motherboard. A cable management compartment keeps your system organized and the airflow unobstructed. A 120mm rear fan and 140mm top fan ensure that the case runs cool even when playing the most demanding games, while the sleek black finish gives it an extra stylish edge.

OK.
And what about other absent guys, like those two:

Enermax T.B.Silence UCTB12 120mm Fan
Akasa AK-FN059 120mm Ultra Quiet Venom Viper Cool Fan - 3/4 Pin

They are "out of stock", any chance to restock them to make a companion to above mentioned Antec ? :)
 
How does it compare to a Zalman Z9 or Shinobi. Price seem's steep in comparison?


Shinobi is an excellent case and looks nice too but the 300 has better airflow and a much sturdier feel. It's a real no nonsense case Everything is straight forward and obvious.

The 300's down side is being unable to hide the CPU 12V aTX cable round the back.

Either way both good cases for the money but personally I would favour the 300.
 
I got nothing against the 300 case, except for the price inflation over the years. I bought one for a mate's socket 775 build years ago, and it was just £35 back then. With so many more newer and more modern case available now, I fail to understand why it would still retail at such a high price, particular with its limited length for graphic card and no USB3.0...

I'd have thought the short supply of this case is because of its age and Antec has been phasing it out...

Nice case but seems a little dear tbh

I agree. This case Antec 300 is the same as Antec 302 but the Antec 300 come with 2 x USB2.0 at the front while Antec 302 come with 2 x USB3.0 and back plate cut out.

I do feel that the old Antec 300 should be £49.99 while Antec 302 is £59.99 - I prefer to choose Antec 302 over than Antec 300 (outdated)

Compare the two different here:

Cheers, looking for a case upgrade for my brother, seems it would fit nicely in the spec.
