Introduction:

    Many thanks to Antec-Inc. for this next item up for review. Marketed as a desktop chassis (like my old skewl Packard Bell P90,) the Antec NSK2400 can also fit into the budget line of HTPC chassis. This case is sleek and stylish enough to do just that.

    The NSK2400 is the first desktop to be added to Antec's award-winning Solution Series of enclosures. All the cases in the NSK series are designed to include Antec's quiet computing technology, be highly efficient and environmentally friendly, while remaining affordable. The NSK2400 is no exception. It features a triple-chamber structure, which is designed exclusively to isolate heat and noise produced by hard drives and the power supply. It has great ventilation and has attractive, yet understated, style. Since it has its own power supply, the NSK2400 can be used anywhere a stylish, but not overpowering, chassis is needed.

About the Company:

    How did Antec become the world's #1 brand of high-performance computer components?

    The year was 1986. Starbucks had only a few stores. Don Johnson was actually cool. The average PC had less memory than today’s cellphones. And in Fremont, California, a little company named Antec was born. Antec’s first employees never imagined that their upstart firm would rise to the very top of the high-performance computer components industry. But rise it did. And rather swiftly, too.

    So what can Antec do for you? That depends on who you are. If you’re a computer user, and you’d like to upgrade your existing computer or build a new one yourself, we’ve got the computer cases, power supplies, cooling fans, lighting components, and accessories that you need. If you’re a system builder or VAR, we’ll help you deliver reliable and cost-effective systems to your customers. And if you’re a retailer, we’ll help you reach an explosively growing market: namely, “do-it-yourself” computer users who enjoy building and upgrading their own computers.

    How do we do all this? Our product lineup includes a wide variety of unique computer cases, such as the elegant Lifestyle Series, ultra-powerful Performance One and Performance TX series, and the cost-effective Solution Series. Our world-class power supplies – including the TruePower 2.0 and SmartPower 2.0 lines – have won countless international awards for their reliable performance. Our flexible rackmounts are ideally suited to the demanding ISP, telecom, and networking markets. And for those of you who’d like to add a little visual flair to your computers, we offer an eye-catching range of fans, lights, and other PC accessories.

    We’re headquartered in Fremont, California, with additional offices in the Netherlands, Europe. We’ve also established distribution partnerships throughout Australia and Southeast Asia. So you’ll find Antec products in over 25 countries. But no matter how large we grow, we’ll never forget our mission: to give you the power you need to create the computer you really want. That’s the Antec way. That’s the Power of You.
