The Antec Twelve Hundred V3 case is a big case and comes in an equally BIG box. Which is always a good thing (bigger is better, right?), so right from the start it seems like your gonna get plenty for £130. The case was well packaged and no issues were fo...

Video Review: The Antec Twelve Hundred (1200) Case is exceptional, right from the outside to the inside. It's the type of case you really want to own because there are so many excellent features. The overall look is really sharpe, especially since the inside of the case is also painted black. There are lots of fans (5x120mm, 1x200mm), drive bays (12) and plenty of room to work. You can't go wrong purchasing this case because it's one of the best. Watch the video to find out more.
