  • Sadly, my naïve childhood dream of an ideal system case fell apart on me. The same feeling struck me when I first learned that there was no Santa Claus and that babies were not brought by a stork. Now I understand that I wasn’t told the truth b...

  • Good airflow, Unique design, Quick to change GPU and Memory
  • Use of coolers limited by height
  • I really have mixed feelings about the Skeleton after having it for a bit and testing it. The things I really like about it are the design and thinking beyond the standard box shaped case. The materials are high quality that can be felt when handling t...

  • Cabling can be a bit messy and a little tight in some areas
  • From day one I have been thoroughly impressed with the Antec Skeleton. The cases unique design may make you think that Antec was going more for form over function, but they have really spent their time designing a great looking case that is very easy...

  • If theres a simpler case out there to work with, its evaded VH thus far. The only other enclosure to challenge the Skeleton, is DangerDens Torture Rack. The Skeleton could be described as an excellent work station perfectly disguised within a workin...

  • When I first cast my eyes on the Antec Skeleton I was in awe at it's looks. Totally removed from anything we have seen before, my initial feeling was that it would make an ideal enclosure for a test bench. The more I played with it though, the more it be...

  • Certainly an exciting review for PC Freaks & Geeks, we were able to see, test and experience a whole new design to that of our HSPC test bench. How did it match up? Well on paper the Skeleton open-air case with the Antec name branding is a force to be...
