Installation
The mounts for the motherboard are not preinstalled. All the screws and mounting hardware is located inside of a Ziploc bag zip-tied to the inside of the chassis. Also included inside the chassis are an installation guide and a few zip-ties to help with cable management.
Antec has pre-installed two 140mm top fans and a 120mm rear fan. There are no front intake fans pre-installed. Tool free brackets are installed on the 5.25″ bays (Antec say the top bay is designed for use with card readers, additional fan controllers, etc.) and below them we find five drive trays. These are removed after taking off the panel behind the motherboard and have tool-less designs for 3.5″ devices with screws are required for 2.5″ drives. The space behind the motherboard tray is a little lacking, but the cable routing options are still very good. The routing holes do not have rubber grommets, but are large enough to take a host of power cables through them without any problems. The Antec GX700 will only allow you to mount a half-height 240mm radiator with fans installed in the top panel.
There we have it! The GX700 brought to us by Antec! Let us cover a few final thoughts and conclusion of our review.
