First. Decent Antec case. I wish it had two USB 3.0 ports. Honestly we are past half way in 2023 no one even needs front USB 2.0 ports anymore surely. Great content as always.
Rubber grommets are mostly unnecessary I feel. A lot of them just fall apart after a few years anyway. Leaving black rubber fragments floating around in your system. I do like the red theme of this build. ❤
Like the case, this is perfect for full atx or matx compact builds, I find other cases to long and to much unused space from the front going to the motherboard since nowadays a lot of people put aio on top of the case.
Supports mATX or ITX boards. I just mention ATX in the video since it has loads of space abivr and below mATX board but that is good for cable management.
@@PCCrazyDario Yeah I thought so too thanks for highlighting it, I also noticed a small usb type C on the front panel which is a really good plus for me.
Hello. I have some doubts to ask. 1. Is it possible to do an aio build inside Antec Striker Mini? 2. Is it possible to do an air cooler build inside Antec Striker Mini? 3. How many fans can be installed inside Antec Striker Mini and of what size? 4. Is there enough space to house a full sized RX 7900XTX or are there any SFX graphics card too?
Hi... Let's go with the numbers: 1. Apparently yes. On the back side of the motherboard you install the radiator and then just flip the tubes on the other side. Radiator tubes need to be placed on top. 2. Yes, but it has to lower profile. It's designed for water cooling. Otherwise, remove the TG unfortunately. 3. Front and rear 2x 120mm and on the back side of the motherboard, 2x 120mm 4. Maximum length is 330mm, but the thickness is somethign else. I think a normal 2 slot GPU will fit. Anything thicker than that is a no no. :/
I own an antec df600 and not this one. I believe you can connect the reset switch to the rgb controller to control the rgb because they did it in my df600
I am 100% sure you can change the colors with the button on the case, but I can't remember if the fans have a 3-pin 5V ARGB cable to connect it to the motherboard and control via motherboard software.
I decided to buy a PC by building it, this NX501M model + PSU 550 Watts the main problem for me was installing a Fan because I lack muscles to open the front case. Can you teach us how to properly open the front panel and instead of using 120mm Fan Screw but use Anti vibration rubbers.
It's M-Atx form but has the same dimensions with a regular ATX case. This is bs. I prefer a regular Atx case with 6 heatpipe cpu cooler rather than water cooler but have extra pcie slots. Choosing M-Atx but having the same dimensions with ATX case is not logic.

USB 2.0 for wireless mouse, keyboards or headset, USB 3.0 for USB Flash Drives and on front you have USB C as well which I forgot to mention. :(
USB 2.0 are very useful. There are Bluetooth adapters that play better with them.I'm sure there are other cases as well where 3.0 doesn't cut it.

Totally agree. Only one manufacturer makes them perfect and they don't fall out. :)
How could you fit a 7900 xt sapphire pulse (31.3 cm) in that case if the maximum GPU size for that case is 30cm with front fan ?
Now i have hope, antec is about to release 540 constellation matx case
Soon... :) I will definitely do a review on it. :)

@@ikiboisart Yeah, I totally forgot to mention it. My bad. But cool idea for the USB Type C.

@@PCCrazyDario thanks
@@DeathStriker88 Always welcome bro!
does the rgb header need to be plugged in for the rgb to work? just asking because my motherboard doesn't have an rgb header.
I own an antec df600 and not this one. I believe you can connect the reset switch to the rgb controller to control the rgb because they did it in my df600
Can I fit three 3.5 inch hdd in this case?
Hi, is the lights color changeable?
I am 100% sure you can change the colors with the button on the case, but I can't remember if the fans have a 3-pin 5V ARGB cable to connect it to the motherboard and control via motherboard software.
Antec keeps making cases that don't allow fan control. Just weird. I don't believe that such a thing would adds cost.
