Summary: This is the case for the first PC build I have ever done by myself and it has been a joy to work with. This case only accepts Micro ATX Motherboards, and I bought the Gigabyte GA-MA69GM-S2H, like others who have reviewed this case.

All I can say is, this case is solid. The power supply is great, the fans are practically silent, and everything is running cool. It looks great in my entertainment center, it looks like it is just another piece of A/V equipment.

My build:
Antec NSK2480
Gigabyte GA-MA69GM-S2H
AMD Athlon XP 5000+ Brisbane (Black Box) overclocked to 3.0GHz
Scythe Ninja Mini Heat Sink
Pioneer 112D Silver DVD+-RW

all connected to a Vizio 47\" 1080p LCD

Summary: I replaced my previous case, an Antec minuet, with this, because the half-height minuet was a little too loud and also because it was hard to find expansion cards in that form factor. I was concerned that this case might not look nice, but it's REALLY attractive. I replaced the builtin \"tricool\" fans with two Yate Loon fans, which are quiet and also support fan management from the motherboard. Also, bear in mind that the PSU is only 380w -- but, for an HTPC, it's hard to think you'd need more for 99% of installations.

Summary: This is a great Antec case that is essentially a Antec Fusion case without some of the bells and whistles (no front display or volume knob). This particular case has excellent cooling design for a small case and is elegant looking for a Homme Theater PC setup. it accepts microatx boards only and comes with an adequate 380W power supply. it has a horizontal layout suitable for fitting into home-theater system racks.
