Antec Minuet 350 MicroATX Slim Case Computer Case 350 Watt 80 PLUS Power Supply, Shivas Gold, 7.5''

Fit for purpose. I'm not hugely experienced in pc building, but found this case very easy to work with. Quality wise it isn't top end, but very good for the price. Looks ok, though will see out its days serving media from a cupboard. Came with lots of screws and standoffs, no complaints from me. Delivery was reasonable, though the huge muddy boot print on the box suggested it had been used as a step at some stage, the unit itself was undamaged.

Nice little case, brought this as a standby ready for use, very pleased and so well packed, you could drop this from a 1000 feet and with the packing and feel sure it would still come out in one piece !!!!! well done Amazon.

...owners should have tentacles not arms and fingers as releasing the front panel to mount the front fan and 5.25" accessories like dash boards, 2.5" hotswap docks etc is a nightmare as the upper two clips are not reachable by anyone with normal fingers. Took me a good 30minutes of sweat and frustration to get the clips released. Well done Antec design dept.A 3.5" drive or card reader can not be mounted properly as the front screw mounting cannot be accessed, what would it have taken to provide an access hole?This case could be used as a server case or media-centre and it has attractions for that use. Although in that deployment the 7 expansion slots available would possibly be wasted.The main reason I purchased the case is as home for numerous 3.5" HDD.Having them all inside a case seemed a good move. At a stroke condensing the number of docks I have, which seem quite hit or miss as far as reliable connection s concerned. Just make sure that you can 'spin down' the drives when they are not in use, not all HDD are able to do this.Remember that with the full complement of HDD installed the case will be a challenge to move.Fitting my ATX motherboard was a mild struggle and I would recommend that a fully modular power supply is used, if you want a tidy install.Although smaller boards would slide in easily but |I am not aware of a m-ATX with seven PCI-e expansionslots and 6 SATA sockets.Overall a reasonable case there are better but finding one with lots of expansion potential may have the potential purchaser hunting through lots of other potential homes for their hardware.There are a few useful access ways to allow cabling to be hidden behind one of the removable side covers, which controls part of the birds nest of leads. Although the available space is not the most generous as most cables are circular in section which reduces the space further. .Overall this case has potential but it is not the best unless you need to home numerous HDD.

I thought this case for the money was pretty sturdy. Not amazing by any stretch of the imagination, but for the money, it cannot be moaned at. Good build, looks smart and everything as it should be ports and wires wise. 4/5

Solid, sound deadening, stylish, simple... recommended.

Great case. A little tight on space but very nice build quality.

Instruction leaflet is a disaster zone. Say you may mount a 120mm fan on front, but there's no suitable mounting holes. Text directs you to their web site for full instructions, which are nowhere to be found. If you know what you're doing, this product is OK.
