Antec Lanboy Case Review

Cases & PSU/Cases by jmke @ 2003-03-31

In the past Antec cases were known for its sturdy structure and great features, but they werent the smallest ones around & surely not the lighest either. They still remain first class in the midi/maxi towers, but now they also have a new product up their sleeve for the LANparty folk. Aptly named the "Antec Lanboy", ultra-light and packed with nifty features. We test its portability, easy of use and of course the performance.

Installing your Gear


The rear side panel (that's the one behind you motherboard) is not removable, same story for the motherboard-tray. You still have enough room to manoeuvre around though

You can easily install your floppy/hard drives thanks to the removable rack:

10 minutes later I'm all set to power up the system:

  • Abit KR7A
  • XP1700+ tested at 1466Mhz/1.7v and 2000Mhz/1.98v

    350Watt will be enough for almost anybody that uses the LANboy for its meant purpose. If you want to install 5 Hard drives and 5 PCI cards this case might not be for you :)

    Adding a CCFL, rounded cables, neon paint or other popular modding items to this case will really make use of the window in that side panel!

    The PSU comes with a nice blue LED and transparent fans:
