The Tech Report has posted a review on the Antec SX-1030 case.



The first thing I did when I got the 1030 out of the box was to open ´er up and take a look at the interior. If it sounds like I´m talking about a car, that´s because the experience is fairly similar; the side panel opens via a latch that reminds me of a car door.

Everybody loves the idea of a case that opens without tools, but typically that either means screws that turn with your fingers instead of a screwdriver or simply leaving the screws out of the side panel and hoping it doesn´t rattle or fall off. The Antec panel opens with a simple pull of the latch, then swings out and comes off. When it´s time for the panel to go back on, just push the front edge snug and swing it closed until it latches. You never have to worry about lining up tabs on the panel with notches on the case, or having the panel bind up when it´s halfway on. Also like a car, there is a key lock on the latch if you´re security minded.
