Well look how I didn't even know Antec had a 'Dark Fleet' series.
Introducing the latest in that line-up...
The DF-85
Pretty comprehensive review
here.
There are some features in this case that I WISH my Antec 1200 had, like
a mobo tray cutout for CPU cooler brackets, so you don't have to remove your entire mobo to change CPU coolers.
The built-in HDD hot-swappable docks are another nice addition. This is not a new thing, but you have to wonder why ALL enthusiast-level cases don't include it.
Not too crazy about the little 'doors' on each of the ODD bays. It means you have to manually
open them to access your drives. Don't like doors of any kind on the front of my case.
I am however, crazy about the 2.5'' dock at the top for laptop HDDs/SSDs.
Again, ALL new cases should have at least ONE of these bays somewhere on the front.
Also liking the fact that there are two exhaust fans up top.
All in all, its a great case, but I think the HAF-X really does raise the bar quite a bit more.
