It's been 6 months since having this case but I still couldn't find a way to turn the fan down in low level. It's been loud as hell and not I can't take it anymore. I've been trying to find the switch but where the hell is it?
 
Near the fan, there should be a black plastic piece with a few black and red wires running back towards the fan, there's a single black wire coming from the same spot. The switch to change fan speed is on the small black box.
There should be three notches you can set it to. look closely, it will say "lo" "mid" "hi"

Let me know how it goes?:thumbs:
 
Can't you decrease the speed via BIOS?

My Antec fans use molex connectors that hook up to the PSU instead of the motherboard, so if he has the same kind of fans, I don't think so.

But yea, there should be some wires coming out of the fan with a black box on the end. How did you even put up with that for one day? They sound like a truck on high D:
 
Seriously though, it must be impossible to concentrate with all that noise coming through that entirely perforated case.
 
if your fans plug into your motherboard, then maybe he can change it the bios. Chances are he has these fans hooked up to his power-supply; especially considering how many there are and that one is a 200mm fan.

But yea, the little black boxes are how to change the fan speed. The case is awesome I must say owning one myself, lol.
 
Got mine today and IT'S A GOD DAMN BITCH FOR CABLE MANAGEMENT!

GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH.

I can't turn it on until I get the processor :(
 
Pfft, who needs processors. Make your GPU do it!
 
There is a switch along the cable that connects the fans. Switch from High to Low.
 
Agree that the case is terrible with cable management, and even on all fans low it can still be quite noisy. Really wish there was a way to plug the fans into the mobo so I can automatically slow them down (my room is freezing as it is, so I don't even need that many fans).

But...but...but it looks so awesome!
 
I'm still standing by my opinion that the case looks like an APC from C&C or something. Do not want.

That's why I'm looking into This. I'll keep my Antec around for future setups for my kids.

Antec will get under your skin for lack of space, specially sli setups.
 
I forgotton what Antec model I have. All I know is it can easily stop a 9mm bullet
 
:rolling:Good God, why does everyone have a 900? My local gaming pc shop has one on display, and that that is so little. Nice looking case, its just too small. antec needs to release a full tower variant. mid tower = shit cable managment, imho.
