  • 250mm fan, Looks
  • Expensive, Not easy to setup
  • Skeleton. What better name could anyone give this open air PC case? The Antec Skeleton is absolute innovation at its best. It not only looks stunning but also has a rock solid build quality. Come to think of it, the Skeleton is definitely not aimed at ...

  • Abstract:  Video Review: The Antec Skeleton Case has open air design & is really intended for reviewers, testers or anyone who's swapping hardware a lot. Being able to easily & quickly install or remove computer components is a fantastic. It consists of just two parts, the frame & the component tray. The component tray is where the main computer hardware components like the motherboard, drives & PSU gets installed. This case is certainly not for everyone, but being a reviewer I absolutely love it! Watch the video to find out more...

  • May be hard to assemble (for those with less wiring experience),
  • Although the Antec Skeleton is priced at the Mainstream level, I feel that the mainstreamer (D.I.Y.er) may have a little trouble putting it together. The component tray is tight and can cause a lot of frustration. Now on the other hand, if you have the...

  • Working with the Antec Skeleton is a unique experience. We were pleasantly surprised by how sturdy it was despite the lack of material. It was very easy to pick up and move around thanks to the rounded top and open sides that made for good handles. Th...

  • Aside from the complete lack of any helpful instructions supplied by Antec, I found the Skeleton a pleasure to work with. I would, however, like to address the issues at this point. The motherboard tray when it works correctly is smooth as silk, but...

  • The world of computer cases always seems like its ready to burst with new products. But the thing is, most of the new ideas arent always quite up to par for functionality. Cases that smash video cards into hard drive cages or have poor options for ca...

  • Open Case, Cant Accommodate Tower Fans, Short Front Panel Cables
  • The Antec Skeleton does not disappoint in any way. It certainly has a few problems like the limited height that forbids anyone from installing a tower CPU cooler or a very big graphics card, the small length of the front panel connector ...

  • Abstract:  Back when I first saw the Antec Skeleton concept images, I didn’t know what to think. Sure, it looked amazing, but was it meant to be a proper PC case or was it designed as a maintenance platform for system builders? Even now I cannot answer that quest...
