Antec Dark League Dark Fleet DF800 Flux, Glasfenster

Antec will mit der F-LUX für eine besonders effektive Gehäusekühlung sorgen. Davon soll auch das Dark Fleet DF800 FLUX profitieren. Dazu zeigt der Midi-Tower aber auch ein auffälliges Design, das sowohl von der geometrisch gestalteten Front als auch von drei vormontierten A-RGB-Lüftern geprägt wird.

Antec is a long-standing player in the case market, with decades of experience, and a pretty big fanbase of their own too. The DF800 Flux Dark League is a great addition to their range, and while they haven’t tinkered with the interior design too much, at least compared to what we would expect from any modern mid-tower, they are ticking all the right boxes here. The case is surprisingly compact overall, but highly capable. It features six drive bays, so if you’re a big of a storage junky, it’s going to get the job done there, even if cable routing all that would be a bit of a pain. That being said, there’s good clearance behind the motherboard, and the PSU shroud offers up a little extra room to cram all your cable horrors out of the way. The ventilation on the right-side panel, as well as that reverse fan, certainly adds to the appeal here. Is it going to make a huge difference? Well, any day that more airflow isn’t beneficial to a PC build, satan will by ice skating to work. With next-gen gaming GPUs and CPUs posting some truly shocking TDPs, I’d certainly be looking at Antec for their extra airflow. I suspect other case makers will be exploring similar options too. I’d love to get two reverse fans in there though, I prefer more fans at a lower RPM than fewer working harder, but that’s just me. The RGB in the front looks great, and while I’m sure some would have liked to see RGB in the back fan too, I’m happy the way it is. Sometimes, well, most times, RGB is overdone, and having it on that front focal point is more than enough for me. The colours and effects look great, and the unique front panel design really gives it a cool and futuristic vibe.
