Today I will be reviewing the Antec GX700 Chassis. Your initial impression may be that this case has no aesthetic appeal. Which is true compared to cases that are designed to show off the interior components and lighting. With those visual options also comes a higher price point. Antec chose to stick with durability and functionality over curb appeal. The more I began to tinker around and read about this case, the more I appreciated what Antec accomplished and where Antec priced this chassis. A different color option other than the military camo green would be nice but after looking at the case a little longer, I can see the scheme that Antec was aiming towards. The case is intended to give the builder a sense of durability, rugged, and “ready for combat“. The case is well accented by the caution stickers on the top panel, further enforcing the scheme. The GX700 is one case to take a closer look at if you are in the market for a case designed to be durable, easy to use, and want to have a case build after build. What are we waiting for? Let us get into the good parts of the review already! I cannot wait to showcase the Antec GX700 in detail!
The GX series is one of the newly introduced chassis lines Antec has developed. I look forward to what is in store for the future of this series!
