Can the Antec 902 case bring anything new to this popular design?

It seems that Antec have been rather busy, churning out this now iconically-shaped case in many different sizes and configurations, including this recently-updated model.

When we looked at the original Nine Hundred, we weren't too impressed with some of the features, but fingers crossed that they've been fixed in this one.

There are a few interesting things whacked in here, and certainly enough to give it a little love and attention.

The case is out now, so check out our gallery for pics and descriptions of this blackened steel case, and make sure you pick up Issue 98 for a full review and score.

eat_the_flag Jan 27, 2009 4:42 PM	I own an antec 900 and an antec 300.. I quite like the old 900.. but e-sata is handy.. I might buy the new one :P
broke123 Jan 27, 2009 4:56 PM	it's basically a mini 1200
index680i Jan 27, 2009 5:53 PM	Antec 902 looks alright but Antec have gone stupid lately.
nesquick Jan 27, 2009 7:17 PM	yay finally they decided to put cable routing into a case that desperately needed it.
SceptreCore Jan 27, 2009 7:47 PM	They just made the 902 so that people would know that Antec made the original design... not Thermaltake.
battlefield_gir Jan 28, 2009 2:53 AM	dust management is still an issue.
trojan71 Jan 29, 2009 7:15 AM	The 902 now has washable air filters in the front and side fans :)
V1RUS Jan 29, 2009 10:59 AM	hmmm it basicly looks the same except some minor changes to the case like the front pannle and one problem i found NO CUP HOLDER THINGY lol but otehr than that looks fine
osama_bin_athlon Jan 29, 2009 1:18 PM	meh. make it out of aluminium and I might get enthusiastic.
s3fron Jan 30, 2009 10:59 AM	"dust management is still an issue." I don't think that it is. I just opened our first batch of 900 2's, and they all have removable dust filters for front/side, much like my 1200. Pull them out, wash under the tap, leave to dry on the sink. Bam. Externally the outside coat is rougher/like a powder coat rather tha a smoother finish like on the 900/1200 original series. Overall - Sexy.
andhey Jan 30, 2009 8:12 PM	i prefer the original 900's
