HEXUS Snapshot: The One is pleasant to work with, it cools surprisingly well and, frankly, punches well above its weight. Few things are as satisfying as a good bargain, and we reckon we've found one in Antec's latest mainstream chassis. Dubbed...

Antec's One is intended to appeal to the mainstream market, offering a case that has many enthusiast level features at an extremely low price. Some of the finer features of the One include the two 120mm exhaust fans, tool-less drive installation,...

Antec’s case line-up was starting to look a little confusing, so we were glad to see the company refocusing its efforts into one budget chassis rather than three. Considering it costs less than £50, the Antec One has a lot going for it....

Looking first at the build quality of the Antec One we have a chassis which is very clearly manufactured to a level above the average case in this price range. It feels solid thanks to a decent thickness of steel, even on the sides and perforated...

Overall, the features really sell the Antec One. I quite enjoy the tool free design that Antec uses. The 5.25" ODD drives snap into place and feel completely secure. I've had issues with many higher end cases with the ODD drives feeling secure on...

The Antec One is a good option for users on a budget. Its price is right, and we can definitely recommend it for users who don’t want to spend a lot of money on a computer case. We see as its main competitor the NZXT Tempest 210, which has a few...
