Antec Performance 1 Full Tower Build! 

the first case and powersupply I bought were from Antec. Back in the day they were the top of the line brand for cases and powersupplies. They made great stuff.

Antec was one of those brands that we all kinda forgotten, my early builds was always with Antec cases. Good to see that they're still around making good gear.

I''m still using an Antec 1200 I got in 2010. I've always loved the look of it.

One of my favorite cases was an Antec 900, that case was WAY ahead of its time and very reasonably priced too. Nice to see Antec is still in the game.

Still rocking a heavily modified Antec Fusuon case for my home server and I am still amazed by the build quality and customisation options they had in 2008. Great comeback I guess since they've been gone from the PC case scene for a while.

I got this case three weeks ago and fell in love.

I loved my Antec p183. I really need to modify it and bring it back to use. I am using an ENZO case for my current system, and it's really choked off from air. I believe my old computer was happy in the p183. I am glad to see Antec is still keeping up with their designs. It's nice to see an older company surviving in a market that is flooded by so many foreign companies!

i usually don't like when everyone starts talking about the same product at the same time, but this case is too damn good looking and apparently efficient to pass up, every video on it is just top tier.

I built 4-5 systems in the late 90s and early 2000s with Antec cases. Good to see them around, after having their case designs fall behind for so long.

Antec have really made a comeback in recent years. Its great to see my thoughts about their cases confirmed by Jay. Also good to see you venturing off the Lian Li path for a change.

Jay, PLEASE take a look at the Cannon case from Antec!

I remember the first enthusiast case I ever bought was an Antec. It kept its value quite well even when I resold it. High quality stuff. This case looks great!

Pretty cool case. The front reminds me of Fractal Torrent while the case itself has that G500A vibe to it. Hopefully I can get one on where I live, because this might be a contender case for my future build(s)

My 2nd PC build (2010) used an Antec 900. Absolutely loved this case and ended up using it's upgraded V2 on 3 other builds for a small office. They are still in use today. Sadly the original case's big boy 200mm fan died, which was a pretty key feature.

Hey, I had an Antec P182. Only upgraded from it within the past couple of years. It was a solid build.

I'm a fan of how this build looks! My current setup is blacked out 100%. I haven't heard about Antec products in SUCH A LONG TIME now! Glad they are still around making good stuff! I've owned a ton of their cases and fans long ago in the AMD K6-2 through Thunderbird and Multi-processor (MP) days.

What a build. Awesome Jay!!!

Jay, for Jess, when was last you’ve seen a full tower case on a desk ? Normally these go on the floor, so the temp. sensor position on the top of the case makes absolutely sense. Other than this, great case as expected by ANTEC.

My first case that didn't utterly suck was an Antec 500, which I used for various builds for years before donating to a friend who may or may not have taken a Dremel to it. Good to see them back in the game!

Finding myself trusting your opinion and perspective more. I appreciate your apparent honestly and forthrightness, based on your experience.

One of my first builds was with an Antec Sonata case using Vantec stealth fans. Although I don't use it anymore I still have the case and it looks just as good as when I bought it. Very high quality.

Like the case, love the magnetic front and removable top and the cable management panels on the back.

Wow. I’m genuinely impressed with this Antec product.

One of my favorite builds you've done. Looks excellent.

Antec Sonata was my first ever build, focusing on quietness, then into Silverstone Fortress FT-02, which I'm still using 10+ years later :) I still have the Sonata, it's my bed side clock and lamp table 😁 The piano finish is nice 🙂 Still deciding on my next case - Either Be Quiet Silent Base 802, Fractal North or Torrent... They have to be able to match my FT-02's airflow and quietness

I'm glad you mentioned their iUnity, as I wasn't even aware that they had this program available until I followed your link. Btw, I still have a couple of Antec cases with working PCs, a P160W holding a Win98 & a DP502 Fluxwhite holding Win10. Both were modified and outfitted with wood accents to fit my personal aesthetics. The new Performance would be awesome in white and add to my collection.

I had a P180 which lasted me about 15 years. Amazing case. Now im looking upgrade to a full size again and found this. Im sold thank you for the review.

Glad to see Antec return to form! I've put together more systems in Antec cases than I care to remember, but haven't seen them around for the longest time. This might be a contender for any new build I'm doing.

Id love to see you do a custom build in the antec p120 Crystal. I currently have a Corsair 4000D in white, but the P120 Crystal looks so damn good.

I like how the cable management panels on the back are numbered. Would make a cool Star Citizen themed system modeling after something like an Aegis Vanguard or something similar.

Brought back some fond memories. First cased I modded with lights and glow was an Antec, in 2003 :)

Always been a huge fan of Antec. It's been my go-to case for decades.

I love it when your case reviews get a quick build in them... . I could care less if you get it running (honestly). Just seeing how a build fits into a case is great! 👏🏼

whats that software called at 15:12?

I also had an Antec case back in the day and they had for the time some great functionality. Nice to see that they are still in the game.

Glad to see Antec coming back, loved my 900 and SX830 beforehand

Really nice case, something different beside the NZXT or Lian Li builds we are looking at in these days. Would be good to offer another cheaper version with a metal backcover and a white option.

This LCD is in such stupid, invisible place, I can't even. Close to nobody keep the chassis on the floor.

I have a 20 year old Antec Full Tower case, that just won't die. Almost all the electronics inside have been replaced, but the case is still in good shape.

I was a fan of antec, upgraded around 8-9yrs ago from the sonata II to the enthoo pro. Nice heavy case, solid thick sheet steel, automotive grade paint job. Finally updating a workstation from the antec slk2650-bqe solutions case to a fractal define r5.

It's great to see Antec getting up there with this awesome new case they made

Got an Antec P180b back in the days, loved it, felt really high quality and the features were way ahead of its time.

My first propper build was in an antec Torque. It's now a 3 radiator, fully water cooled beast..... and i still love it!.

The TUF OC version of the 4080 may not be the largest variant but putting one in my system still necessitated upgrading the case from an H510 to an H710. I wish I had seen this video before doing that upgrade.

Thanks for showing me the case I'll be using in my next build. The Antec P182 was my second case. Solid, inexpensive, easy to build in, and super quiet! I loved that case. Thanks for showing me the case I'll be using in my next build.

Haven't thought of Antec in years, good to see a solid design from them!

My Antec Sonata III case is still in active use. I have upgraded the components inside some four or five times during the past 10 years or so. Just love the case!

Thanks for showing this off, I love full towers and wished more Tech RU-vidrs would show this off this type of cases.

Had (youngest has it now) an Antec P160 non-window case, built several systems in it, and loved it. Recently ('17) got a brand new Antec P9, much the same as the P160, black and windowed. Antec make damn good cases

@10:39 What a delightful choice of music to build to. Perfect fit.

Found my new case. I LOVE the front of the case, reminds me of a car grill

My first watercooled build was in an antec case. I modified the front to be able to mount a 420 radiator to and still have the front cover on. It stuck out of the top and met up with the 240 radiator at the top. Has that kind of inside-out look. It still gets all the hand-me-downs from my main build which is in a slightly modified Define 7.

Refreshing to see how you're using all Antec parts. This is how I do my pc builds. And I thought I was the only one lol.

My current build is in a Antec DF700 Flux mid-tower with Antec storm series fans and custom water loop (corsair pump). I couldn't be happier. The amount of heat that is removed from my system during load is insane -- I am toasty warm during winter. My GPU never spikes above 42c during load and my CPU is relatively stable around 35c and 60c during load.

Jay's iFixit ad is so over the top that I always watch it

Ive bought the innovative Antec P182 back in 2006 i suppose, and that was a breath of fresh air back in the day!! Now it started to show its age, but still goes very strong and one of the best silent cases out there 👍 This one is just a tad above average among branded 2023 computer cases...

I remember drooling over the Antec Sonata cases back in the day, that "piano black" finish was super clean.

Reminds me a lot of the bequiet! Silent Base 602, but with better cable managment and more space for fans and radiators. I had an old Antec case before I bought the bequiet and I was already impressed and inspired by what antec came up with back then. Good stuff!

really nice clean case. The panels on the back is brilliant.

This brings back memories, my first build was a Antec 902 looked so awsome

Yes ,thank you. Checking out the case with an actual build, not just theoretical "it fits so many fans and radiators". And awesome build by the way

One of my first cases from them had a triple dial readout on the front panel. One for CPU, GPU and fan speed. Amazing case for the early 1990s.

wishlisted for next build Thanks Jay for the great content!

Awesome Case, I have and love the Silent version, it's Perfect for No RGB builds.

My first custom pc case was an Antec Super Lanboy.. Loved that thing,

Thanks for the review. Ordered one. Great case! Replaced my aging Phantek with an old I7-7700K while I save up for something better. Tons of room now.

My first pc i built has Antec sonata III case. This was back in 2006-2007 ish it has served me well to this day and 2 years ago had to cut the back of it open to fit in AIO watercooler for the CPU.

Very good case from Antec. From them I have used power supplies and Antec Lansing speakers, I dont know if anyone remembers those, it was a long time ago. Thanks Jay for all your videos.

Using those non RGB 140mmx30mm fans in my case, they are great. Quiet, move a ton of air. Good to see you looking at more of what's out there!

Still rocking an Antec 300 on my home office computer. Just updated some components and the case is still great!

Love Antec, this is a SICK build!

I love this case, the 140mm fans that come with it are really quiet and temps have been great. I bought the white version because my fractal meshify couldnt fit my Sapphire 6950xt without touching the front fans. Loved the case so much that I bought the black version to swap my wifes pc into. Neither of us have used the lcd display as our pcs sit on top the desk, but it is a cool feature. The main pros of this case are amazing cable management, nice included fans, easy to build in, and lots of space for activities. The white version has normal clear glass, and the black one has smokey tinted glass for the side panel, which looks suprisingly good. 10/10 would buy again.

It's a really nice case, the build looks great and easy to do.

My 2016 build was in an Antec 300 case, and also had an Antec HCP Platinum 1000W P/S and an Antec Kuehler 120mm AIO. It's still going strong. My latest build uses an Antec DF800 Flux white case, and yes, I did also put in their fans, the beveled outer LED rings look really good at the top of the case.

I like how at 0:59 the same old CRT TV is in both the old image of his old PC and in the live image of the background. PCs come and go, but that old CRT is forever.

Had a ISK 600 from Antec back in the day, killer ITX setup for the time.

I'm really really liking the look and of this case... A lot

This is probably gonna be my next case for my next build. From a Be Quiet 900D (which was a great case, minus the limited airflow ontop...) Love this one!

Nice case! When I built my old gaming computer with my dad 12 years ago, we used the Antec 300 case. It had the AMD Phenom II X6 1090T and 2 Radeon HD 7770s in Crossfire (initially had 2 5770s in Crossfire). Still works today! Recently, we built a brand new gaming computer with the Antec DF700 Flux. It has the AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D and Radeon RX 6600 XT. So far, it's been working great!

Wow that is an pretty cool full tower

Love the Ifixit explosions!

I've had at least 6 antec cases over the years and they've always been awesome...

I'm really digging that case too.

Great timing looking for a case.

Love seeing Antec again. This case looks like it has a lot in common with the Phanteks P500A but that's a great thing. Looks awesome.

Jay, another spotlight of something well engineered? You're spoiling us! Lovely build, great video. Thanks man

I built a PC for my next door neighbour about 4 yrs ago in a 'cheap' Antec NX 230 case (35 GBP) I was genuinely gobsmacked by how good the quality of the case was, Kudos to Antec.

Thoroughly enjoyed that iFixit advert!!! 😂

Awesome to see antec doing antec things and being good

Looks killer absolutely killer!!!

I'm thinking of doing my own build and had been looking for a case that would have mice air flow and just looked nice overall! This caught my eye and now have decided this is what I want my case to be. Now just to figure the rest of the components I want 😅 not sure as this would be my first build and still learning everything.

So many memories of starting out in this game, extreme frustration! But so fun.

Jay thankyou for this video! I ended up choosing the Antec performance 1 ft in white.

Jay I love your Ifixit commercials the first one I saw made me want one

I just built a new rig using an Antec DF700 Flux case and I LOVE everything about it!!

That front panel is so nice. Just pull it off an clean it without lugging the whole case outside to blast it with air.

Sweet case and setup, Jay. Thanks!

Watching the montages, makes me want it more with that synthesizer

Thanks for the great review Jay.. I know which case I'm using for my next build coming up!

Antec has really stepped up their game! Cool case!
