Ant Esports ICE-110 Mid-Tower Computer Case/Gaming Cabinet – Black | Supports E-ATX, ATX, Micro-ATX, Mini-ITX | Pre-Installed 3 x 120mm Front Fans…

This is the best Cabinet in this price range for what it offers.

Type-C front panel can only be found on cases priced way higher than this one. This is the only case in this price range which has full ATX motherboard support with 3 HDD slots. I was looking into getting the Lianli Lancool II which has the same features but cost around 8.5k which is a lot of money for a case.

Fan support is excellent in this case and included 4 ARGB fans. The fans can be controlled by ARGB header on supported motherboards or through its own controller in the rear fan. There is no separate ARGB controller in this case. The lighting effects in the case are adequate as I don’t turn on the lights often.

Building in this cabinet is a breeze. The glass window is swivel and is fixed with magnets. The magnets are pretty strong. The HDD bracket is also detachable from the case and you can build the bracket outside the case. There is no HDD tray which help in hot swap, which is a bummer. As I have 4 HDDs, I added one of the HDD on the top, above the PSU shroud. The included GPU sag bracket is awesome. One suggestion for the sag bracket would be to add a rubber pad for the top holder as some old GPUs don’t have backplates and may short the PCB. There is option to vertical mount your GPU with additional riser cable but only two slot GPUs will work. There is also ample room on the front of the case to add water cooling too.

I am very satisfied with this case and I was waiting for the case to come in stock when I first saw it. Bought it for Rs. 4553 and it’s totally worth it’s price.

Awesome case by Ant eSports

The product is good buy this is very delicate. I had found by courier in glass broken condition.

Technically, I would like to give it a 4.5 * rating, but since Amazon does not allow such nuances, I am going with a 5*.

I had been on a hunt for a new case for my PC. The case was 10+ years old – from the time of the AMD Athlon (it still had the sticker on it). However, I had to leave the case sides open for the airflow as the case was not meant for the current range of power hungry and heat aggressive components. After looking at a lot of cases from corsair, cooler master, circle computers, I finally fixed on this one as it fit my budget and looked nice ! The PC is mostly being used by my son, so I thought that the front multicoloured fan rims would be awesome ( and yes, he loves it).

The packaging: This is where the missing 1/2 * goes.
The case is packed in a carboard box and comes with oodles of bubble wrapping_outside_ the carboard box. However, one simple aspect of the case is not covered properly – the side glass panel. Add to it the screws holding the side are losely attached, and while taking out the box, one of the screws managed to come off and scratched a small part of the glass. Shame.

Fixing your stuff in:
It took me a good while to get everything fixed, so I am writing a small guide with the pitfalls.
1. Fix your CPU cooler on the motherboard before putting it in. I have a cooler master hyperion ( the red fan in the image above).
2. Fix the motherboard first. There are many screws given with the case – so you will not need to go hunting. Add the additional CPU screw mounts as required. The thing to note here is that at the back, the shield that goes over the ports ( so you don’t have big gaps) is a very tight fit in the space provided.
3. Fix the Hard Disks. The regular HDDs are in HDD bays on the side ( non glass). Fixing in the SSD was a pain though. The recommended location is the inner wall, but that leaves very little space for the cables to attach to the SSD. So, I have mounted it on the side panel on the same side that you access the normal HDDs from.
4. Fix in the PSU.
5. The power cable needs to go through a small hole at the top near the power connector part. This is a real pain. I wish it was better slotted out.
6. Fix the wiring to your HDDs and SSD on the right side.
7. Front fans give the colour even without the RGB controller. Just slot their power connectors one into another and then connect to the PSU. Fit in the back fan. Yes, the case comes with 4 fans installed.
8. Fix in your Graphics card. I have a NVidia 960 GTX and there is ample space in the cabinet for that. Get in the power cables from the slot at the base nearest to the card. Again, like the MB power supply , this slot is a bit too small.
9. Fix in the front panel cables – this is the multi coloured cables. You may need to separete out each connector from it based on your mother board.
10. Fix in the speaker provided. This gives the beep on starting the computer.

Connect all the accessories like keyboard/mouse/monitor. Start the PC and make sure it boots up. Shut it down. Put in both the side panels. Start your PC and enjoy.
