Antec NX410 ATX Mid-Tower Case, Tempered Glass Side Panel, Full Side View, Pre-Installed 2 x 140mm in Front & 1 x 120 mm ARGB Fans in Rear (White) (9734088000)

As a first-time PC builder, it was extremely confusing to connect the molex fan cables thanks to the manual being not helpful at all. Some screws were also way too tight. If you’re a first-timer, I’d recommend finding another case. The case itself is great overall though, especially for the price.

My very first PC build almost 20 years ago was an Antec case and they have come along way since then. I am very very happy with this purchase. Aside from the fact that I picked this up on Prime day at a super low price, there are several things I liked. First, the three included case fans push air very well and the lights are adjustable using the reset switch on the front panel. Second there are ample places to install hard drives unlike other budget cases. Third, in order to get access to the inside, the tempered glass side swings open. This feature is super convenient and there is no need to grab a screwdriver. The case overall seems to be made of decent quality materials and it doesnt have a cheap feel to it. I would definitely buy again.

I built a computer in this case. It is an i5 11500 and it runs Linux Mint 21.

So the case is good. I like it. I found out the hard way that the fan leds are connected to MOLEX. That means you cant have a program like icue change the colors. The led button is just the rest button plugged into the back fan to change the color. To be honest thats minor, its a budget case. The front fans are 140mm so thats cool. Its cold! The top front and back are all vented so there is plenty of air flow. My cpu and gpu never get hot. They have nice dust filters on them and there are legs to let the power supply get some air. There is plenty of room for rads if you are going to over clock. One thing I saw on YouTube was some people had to remove the rear fan to get their motherboard in but I didnt have that problem. (Rog strix gaming II) I swapped out the fans since I just want it to look prettier. The case fans are totally fine. The hdd chassis is removable which is really nice. There is only one tray for a hdd but at least 3 spots for ssd. With the tray being removable you cold pull it out and have tons of room for cables in needed but I had plenty of room. Id totally buy this case again. Heres a picture with original fans and one with replacements.

Its a great case, but PLEASE remove the PCI-e bracket covers BEFORE putting in your motherboard, it would be VERY easy to know off a transistor or cap when trying to remove them if you dont (I luckily didnt, but I definitely scuffed a few transistors). The size and materials are great, cooling (at least with an AIO) was unchanged from my full-tower case, and for those who dont use mechanical storage, the drive-cage is easily removable which leaves extra cable management room. You can also add an additional 140mm fan in the bottom of the front panel to assist cooling if needed.

This case was easy to build with in all honesty, it does have minor clearance issues with the rear fan but nothing taking it out and putting it back wont solve. The fans are the only real main issue, make sure you plug everything in correctly or you wont be able to change the color of the rgb. I most likely will be replacing the fans later on but all in all its a good case for the cost.

I did have a fan with some LEDs that had failed. Called the company, they sent me a new one free of charge. The case is perfect, the paint is perfect...the glass is great. The wire management, and cooler support is on point. I know these are not the 300 dollar cases that ole Linus over and LTT store typically go for, but for the money these are perfection...and their support was stellar...

Easy to build in and have good air flow.

I transferred all the parts from my old computer to the new case, and its perfect. Just pay attention: the top space of this Tower case is not enough to install the 280mm water cooling system, so I remove the front two cooling fans and install them in the top space, and then install the water cooling system in the front radiator position. Would you like me to do that? By the way, I got it on special price for $60. It was a great deal.

how to turn on led on fan, otherwise good
