Antec SOLO

The SOLO is a mid-tower computer case from Antec. Part of the Sonata family, the SOLO attempts to bring quality computer cases to the masses. Representing one of the best price:performance ratios of whole Antec line-up, the SOLO contains a great deal of advanced features in an inexpensive package, such as dust filters, advanced cable management, hard disk suspension and sound dampening. An extremely popular case for fans of silent computing, the inclusion of hard disk suspension is an added bonus never seen before on non-customized cases. Similar to the rest of Antec's lineup, the SOLO comes with a 120mm Antec TriCool fan for those uninterested in purchasing fans seperately.
