Has Antec finally lost the plot, or do you like the firm's latest creation?

jaket · 5 Nov 2009 at 20:03

Totally nuts. I would never buy a case that looked like that

RIZZEE · 5 Nov 2009 at 20:05

what are antec thinking?

Turambar · 5 Nov 2009 at 20:07

I'm thinking their design team left and they've hired a bunch of ex-thermaltack staff.

Think they might be entering robot wars

It looks like one of those building site proof radios.

I had a box like that to keep my toys in, when I was 4.

cleaning required every 3 days

Obviously someone needs to give them hard reset with use of percussive maintenance.

Except probably even that toolbox had carrying handle...

yar does rather look like a DeWalt case

millsy888 · 5 Nov 2009 at 21:21

Looks like it should have a JCB logo on the front

EdGey · 5 Nov 2009 at 21:38

I think they have lost all self respect :/

Hideous design. Looks like a toy box or something

Ducky Spud · 5 Nov 2009 at 23:14

Used to make great cases but the last few designs have been awful! Especially this, the 200 and some other design recently I cant remember the name of (like a cross between a 300 and a Skeleton lol).

That'll be the Six Hundred gamer.

Antec seem to be going for more extreme designs, the sort people either love or hate. Unfortunately for Antec the later view appears to be more popular on these forums.

whao, what the hell is that

its looks like something thermaltake would do ......

Shakeel · 6 Nov 2009 at 03:19

You're mistaken, Antec built it but primary design came elsewhere:

I certainly applaud Antec for trying to come up with more 'unconventional' case designs, for people that want something different. It's nice to see they are trying something different...

... It doesn't stop it looking terrible tho.
