The case dimensions are 424 × 175 × 260 mm and the weight is 4.90 kg. All panels are made of perforated metal, except for the front, which is made of plastic. The new product will be available in two colors: with a red chassis, as well as black or dark green external panels.
Antec Performance 1 M is equipped with three expansion slots. However, when installing the maximum allowable height of a CPU cooler (78 mm), only two expansion slots remain free. The case supports the installation of video cards up to 350 mm long and up to 85 mm thick (up to 47 mm if the maximum permissible cooler height is installed), as well as power supplies with dimensions of no more than 130 × 125 × 63.5 mm. In other words, only power supply models of SFX or SFX-L formats are suitable.
At the bottom of the case there are two seats for 120 mm or 140 mm fans. There is also a dust filter here. The manufacturer also included a PCIe 4.0 riser adapter for installing a video card in the package.
Antec has priced the Performance 1 M case at €299. The new product will go on sale by the end of January next year.
