============================== Pros ====================================
1. Very big and spacious. Plenty of room to work with.
2. Rolled edges. Didn't nick myself once while putting my build together.
3. It includes all the necessary screws, came with 6 studs already firmly installed and 3 more in the screw bag.
4. Includes the 5.25-to-3.5 adapter for your floppy or card reader etc.
5. Includes 4, yes 4 Blue LED TriCool fans that are VERY quiet but highly efficient. 3x120mm and 1 200mm at the top. An extra (optional) 120mm fan mount is included in the side window as well.
6. Speed control for ALL the fans on the outside of the case is a VERY, VERY nice touch. I keep all my fans on low and temperature on my system is about 35C.
Also, the Big Boy fan's LED can be turned off from the outside of the case as well.
7. Removable air filters for all intake fans. Another nice touch.
8. Removable HDD cages *** NOTE***
9. Black interior is SEXXXAYYY!
10. Plenty of space behind the motherboard tray for cable management and good location of cable routing holes.
============================= Cons ======================================
1. ***NOTE *** The ONE complaint I have is the fact that you HAVE to remove both side panels to access the Hard Drive cages. This is the only thing I can think of that can be improved on this case.
In order to clean the two front fan's dust filters I will need to always undo both sides, take out ALL screws, and THEN I get to pull out the cage and remove the dust filter for cleaning.
I guess it's not that big a deal to some people but I plan on keeping my case as clean as possible so will probably have to go through that process every 2-3 months depending on dust build up.
Also, another way to get around that is to only secure the drive cages with the screws on the side with the window. That way all you'd have to do is undo those 8 screws and be able to pull out the drive cages.
============================ Other Thoughts =============================
Other than the PIA that is gaining access to the dust filters, this thing is 100% SUPERB!
I forgot to mention up there that the side window on this one is big enough to show off all your hardware but also covers the screws that secure the HDD cages. Nice.
This was my very first build ever and it was very easy and was a smooth process mainly due to this case being so accessible.
Originally I was going to get the Antec 300. But I saved up the extra money and got this one instead. Do not regret it at all. This case should last me for many builds to come.
If you're looking for a midtower case I highly recommend this one if you can afford it. Very sturdy construction, great cooling and amazing looks. All-in-One.
F.S.

This case is great - I would rate it 4.5 if Amazon let me as it is almost perfect for me. Big, roomy with good ventilation and the steel keeps things pretty cool. Fans are pretty quiet given that there are many and the location of them.
I would have liked that the fan cables would have been better protected or have additional some cable management options specifically for them. Speaking of cable management, it is generally done very well in this case (apart from some of the fans) and I had no problems routing my component cables. The power supply is located at the bottom in the case - my OCZ StealthXStream fit without issue and its power cables were long enough (other have complained they needed extenders). The holes for cable management can be a little sharp and you have to careful not to nick your cables when feeding them through.
One concern is that motherboard mounting is quite high (for x3 GPU support) and very close to the top fan. It is very easy to have something touch the top fan (the blades are very sharp!). I had no problem with my MB (Gigabyte GA-MA790GP-DS4H + AMD Phenom II 3.0GHz + Zalman 9700).
The blue LEDs are nice and will add an eerie glow to any room at night. :-)
The case is not ideal for LAN gaming parties as it very heavy before you add anything like GPUs and big cooling blocks of copper! You might have to borrow a shopping cart to lug it around ;-)

The Antec 902 is the best case ever! I like the 2 front blue leds and back led light with those little switches that control the speed and NO it's not loud. This case is not loud at all with all speeds on low and so some great cooling I usually get 31*C because my room is not airconditioned or anything but, If I do turn it on I get 21*C. And they come with really cool dust filters, and its recommended to clan them every month or so. I also like the all-black interior which is great. But overall this product is great to buy 5/5 and Amazon did a great delivery with this. And also the box is HUGE.

I just built my first i7 rig and the Dell xps 630i case I was using had virtually zero airflow. My temperatures were off the charts, mainly the VREG Idoling at around 70c. in the 80's under load, and that is not even overclocked. I saw this case and read a bunch of great reviews so I thought I would give it a try, I was not dissapointed. This case dropped my Voltage regulater temp from 70c at idle to 43c and also dropped that all important cpu temp down as well. Now of course I can overclock right?
I overclocked the Core i7 960 Bloomfield from it's stock 3.2Mhz to a nice and stable 4.09Mhz and the temps on the VREG now are 52c idol and 65c. under full load running 100% bench marking with Prime95, and your cpu will never run at that percentage with most programs. In short this is a great case for maximum airflow and all of your temps will go way down if that's what your looking for. I could not have run my i7 rig at those temps without this case much less overclock. Oh it dropped my video card temp down 5 degrees also. If you don't want to go thru the hassle of buiding a water cooled rig and want to overclock a little this is the case for you.

I've been an Antec customer for several years now hand have owned several of their cases. However, this one is the best one I've owned by far. The case arrived with no damage and with all the accessories. This case is made of steel, its heavy and has excellent cooling, with external switches to control the fan speeds. The fans are quiet and move a lot of air, on low setting the only fan I can hear is the ones on my GPU's. I'm running two EVGA 260 SLI video cards that's a tight fit and you will not be able to use the extra fan bracket that come with this case, and you will have to give your hard drives installation locations some thought, I have three installed with no problems. Great Case!
