Antec Dark Fleet DF-85 Gaming Tower Computer Case Unboxing & First Look Linus Tech Tips

[matawin2]

god is it ugly

[surviveasl]

cooler master elite 430 black best side vvindov :P

[xG4m3rJ4m3z]

Ugly case!

[1GamingCentral]

:( I don't know what case to get... The

Cooler Master CM 690 II Advanced.. or this case the Antec Dark Fleet DF-85

Other wise great video

[ItsTrailBlazersTime]

@1GamingCentral Bro. Don't get the Dark Fleet DF-85. It's hard to install the hard drives. If you are looking for a nice case, CM 690 II Adv is good enough. You can spend extra $80 on another stuff inside the case. If you are willing to spend an addition of $80 on case then get the HAF 932 Adv.

[lolzxDrofl]

I should have bought this instead of the antec 1200

[THEKMT6]

please Linus make an unboxing video for the thermaltake Chaser MK-I.

[George241312]

damn linus in broad day......

[alaskanhybrid]

Can you think of all the people that was walking by and passing by in their cars. I would think he is crazy.

[bossmotion78]

Thats a really ugly looking case

[FreshCredit]

y do it outside????

[ShadysFriend]

linus is fucking with the cameraman. LOL

[scruffydied]

i just bought this case and I am very happy with it so far

[igoplrak]

@scruffydied me too just today.. but ive got a problem, it only has 3 bays on top and i've got a optical drive, fan controller, and a dual bay water reservoir. i need atleast 4 5.25" bay.

[calical26]

this case dont buy they say 15 fans can run on it but after yiu put the motherboard in no room for the top fans no room for a water cooler cable mangement sucks useless unless you build a cheap computer for no gameing

[Shimmerman1]

doesn't seem like its worth the money.

[ThranqMinecraft]

It comes...in good foam.

[zIceCoLD]

Con you have a corsair H100 in that?

[spongeguy135]

WHY IS THIS IN A PARK!?

[DrDeso1]

@spongeguy135 maybe he's making a joke about how good the case's airflow is?

[xXMrCreeperFaceXx]

@loppyhoney That is just a hotswap bay, the ssd actually mounts to the very bottom of the case.

[ebola111]

I'm going to buy this case for my x79 build. For my x58 build, I used an Antec 1200 and it was a great case too. Not much I can complain about.

[BrandonAldaz]

he must live on the streets jk lol

[loppyhoney]

wow that ssd mount looks like shit

[0oDarkLordRevano0]

11:43

That's what she said

[0oDarkLordRevano0]

That camera man is probably considering suicide ^-^

[therafa28west]

This case is realy nice. Great unboxing

[MegaSlayer47]

ewwwww outdoors

[themanofram]

Why outside?

[PSCreativeGaming]

Can i fit a human body in this case?

[MindSeeR666]

I got the HAF X and I want this one now.. It looks awesome...

[sublocal]

are you able to install any setup into this tower?

[shawnygz]

linus made the camera man upset

[shawnygz]

i hoping to build a computer by the end of this year (2011) and im stuck between 3 case: cm storm scout, T.T. v9 blax, and this case. i aim to eventually have 2 6790's in crossfire, an amd 6 core cpu, not thinking of after market cooling at the moment, any help full advice in appreciated

[djcube456]

I guess that truck truck at 2:10 is full of things for you to unbox... Lucky.

[italianHD]

include SSD?

[PSCreativeGaming]

Can i hide a human body in this case?

[leafbob1]

man you never win! trying to find a case and i can't decide so far i like the haf x cause its the the biggest but the thermaltake level 10 gt has a swing out door and this case looks awesome cause it has more viewable area through the pane! guess i'm just gonna get the haf x -_-

[OutlawLovesNewVegas]

Will a GTX 590 fit in this case? I was thinking about changing the case I have right now.

[traineespark]

@OutlawLovesNewVegas full tower so it should!

[PSCreativeGaming]

Can i oc my i5 2500k with this case w/o water coolin? What i mean is, can the fans cool the system down enough?

[PingByter]

Only 3 5'25 bays!? Thats badd because i really would like this case, oh well ill buy the haf x

[VideoEditTutorialz]

why are u in a park??

[mistermanthree]

@VideoEditTutorialz why not

[peterdoa1]

why are you outside

[Gr33nNiTrO]

good video =)

i´m also buying this case :D

[SFBFORLIFE]

should i get this case or the nzxt phantom? or maybe even the thermaltake chaser mk-1

[SkeelZx3]

@SFBFORLIFE

this case is big, I got it since 3 weeks back. The design is beautiful, I don't see why some people hate on it though. Cable management us superb also, water cooling compatable & the NH-D14 fitst wonderful.

[ITMBnF]

@SkeelZx3 Just wondering, are there any dust filters on the rear and top fans?

[SkeelZx3]

@SFBFORLIFE

No there are not. There are only dust filters on the front but that's acceptable, you can easily clean your fans and inside the case because it's a big tower. It also depends on your cable management though. :)

The 24 pin to the motherboard is a bitch though, I couldn't get to fit right. However I'm getting my 2500k tomorrow, when I got my motherboard I'll re-do everything. :P

[tibothenr]

03:01 asus m4a89td in the back from previous unboxing :)

[demon6937]

is e-atx motherboard fit in this case?

[HookerJuiceStudios]

i use the ssd area to put my ipod when charging x]

[honey322]

linus, you sounds like a robot...haha...

[honey322]

audio is not good...

[cinnabon7354]

I thought the ssd hot swap bay at the top of the case allowed the ssd to be flush with the mount and not stick out like that. I thought that was the whole purpose of the clear sort of window for it. Its funny that it sticks halfway out of the case.

[JohnLaurain]

@cinnabon7354 If it was flush, wouldn't it be harder to get out?

[TheMaristBoy]

great case, but i hate finding a good spot to put the intel badge

[TheAnkify]

How much does it wieght?

[FastBuffGaming]

@TheAnkify I'm buying this case this month, its 11.3 kg ;)

[MINICLIPGAMER]

This guy is such a faggot.

[WolfOfAtheism]

@MINICLIPGAMER he is married..to a woman....FOOL ಠ_ಠ

[1demonicdeathdevil]

@MINICLIPGAMER your a retard go kill yourself

[MINICLIPGAMER]

@1demonicdeathdevil What, are you his gay partner? I'm sorry then.

[mynameisjamesj]

by default..

[DarkAAProductions]

this is great but, why do they do these out side?

[TheThingyThings]

@DarkAAProductions Because they will spend the rest of their lives playing games inside xD

[DarkAvenger90]

9:59 Porn!

[gekkeabt]

yes it is 2011, the year when the most people reviews stuff in a park :P

[rob3342421]

this would be beautiful for water cooling

[TheMaristBoy]

I bet he's not prepared in case someone leaps out of the bushes and steals whatever he is unboxing!

[Mirwanist]

does it have bottom mounting fans feature ???????

[JTAZN]

what the material of the case. Is it all plastic?

[TSMK900]

What's the difference between Tri cool and Dual cool fans?

[mad87645]

@TSMK900 dual cool are 2 speed, tri cool are 3 speed.

tri cool just allows more options if your picky like that

[TheDr108]

@TSMK900 dual cools has 2 settings "high" and "low" and tri cools has 3 settings "high", "medium" and "low"

[KyleAndRun]

why the fuck are you outside

[HornetWest]

Will be begin looking into purchasing one part at a time for my 1st build and it looks like I will get this 1st

:) Awesome job on the unboxing and every unboxing video you have done. Keep up the great job Linus!

[LFCMJFEVER]

Nice Job, I want that case currently using the Antec 900 Case good case but has half the features of this baby!!!!!! USB 3.0 and hot swapable are very cool features!!!!

[JoeAbunga]

thats very nice foam you got there

[SethMcFartlane]

Stay away from men in the park unboxing gaming PC cases, kids.

[dogg2727]

Dude reviews are frickin awesome...just simply the best!.....daylight so it's easy to watch from youtube, you go through EVERY SINGLE nook and cranny on the case...just the best....I wouldn't be able to do it any better!

[BeatsMonkeys]

thumb up if you think this case look like a antec 1200

[PronoxGTR34]

realy nice check dude !  5/5

[Tech4U247]

lol

Designed by antec in california

Designed by apple in california

[JeemOfRunescape]

how loud is those fans? (how many Decibel)

[LocoVenado]

HAF-X much better

[leddeath80]

@LocoVenado yeah, but much cheaper

[Bekka077]

@LocoVenado The HAF-X has shitty cooling. Friend of mine "upgraded" to that case and less than a week later his graphics cards both burned out from lack of cooling.

[slayersean281]

even though this is an old vid it was realy cool and had a good deal of information and had some humor 2

[halopcdraco]

why are you outside?

[Rayman400]

@halopcdraco it is outside unboxing season :D

[adiosalmaperdida]

does this case come with stand offs?

[saramhussain]

video finishes suddenly tan tan taaa

[maxaxelpro]

I'm sorry I'm not so good at this, where do u put all those fans, not on motherboard I gues, there are like 7 of them?

[One4TheTechnoGuy]

@maxaxelpro well, you have to check how many fans you can attach to your motherboard. Some high end motherboards have 7 or 8, If your not going for a really expensive motherboard then you may not be able to use all your fans, unless you buy splitters or adapters ect,. But in a case like this 5 fans is probably enough.

[dVaidd]

I have a 128 gig SSD, yo.

[mass3gf]

@dVaidd *jealous

[IgotGreens101]

kind of a random location to check out a computer case.

[AusiMoney]

i love the cameraman hes so funny .even though he has never talked

[NikacXMKD]

The cameraman's identity has been compromised at @5:13 !

[adamjamesroe]

I imagine this case will be very loud?

[ida529200]

@adamjamesroe yes, the sound is pretty loud, but for a gaming case, it's acceptable, because when i am running some main stream 3d games, i need the fans to cool down my video card, if not, the GPU would reach up to 85 'c, it's already way too hot for a gpu.

[jarrodm123]

LOL at 4:33 trying to open the bays.

I have one of these cases and I did the very same thing when I first unboxed mine. The doors are locked from the inside on arrival.

[mathias921]

13:27 - The Camera man lost interest.

[AusiMoney]

@mathias921 pretty much aye lol

[henrykeith69]

I love that he does them outside, its about the only time i drool over computer parts while seeing the beauty of earth, lol

[Rapagangsta]

Fleet = F-Leet = F*cking Leet ;)

[MacMilanTheBest]

cameraman at 5:13 in the side panel

[waseem1173]

@MacMilanTheBest sharp eye

[overcastgabriel]

@MacMilanTheBest that mean its big

[CyboreoTwinkie]

@MacMilanTheBest I think it's a girl....

[lxZodiacxl]

why does he do his videos outside?????

[ZomgZomg007]

those drive bays on the top window thing is so annoying

[AiDz0r]

@LinusTechTips What camera do you use?

[swewirus]

is that guy high or something ??

[greyshadow420]

Linus, could you possibly do a video on the Antec Dark Fleet 30-35 =)

[KillyWildlands]

what if someone came and stole that ssd

[flamingfd3s]

What is cpx power supply?

[mindharvester]

best moddible case ever !!

[isyutd159]

@mindharvester do you have it? im thinking of getting ti with my new pc? :)

[KaikuPen]

Can you change out the 3 fans on the front?

[mindharvester]

@KaikuPen yes it is kinda a waste there are connected to a fan controller i got the case and modded it

[theNISK]

this case looks as if it tries to be cool, and fails miserably.

[Donseipo]

@theNISK The Case is brilliant.-.

[HolyReaper123]

@theNISK Thats a matter of taste.

[allwhatyouwill]

why do you this on the street ?

[weliketechnology]

Cameraman = epic

[rcpilot825]

Hey look at me look how cool I am I have a 128 gig SSD yo.

[FreezinHG]

plastic?

[Loremusten]

how many fan can i have totally in this case

[BRAeminem]

i lkie the HAF X more.

[mrbloodmuffins]

@BRAeminem i also think the HAF X is better, it looks more clean, better vetilation (already a fan in the side) and just better looking overall.

[jaja1818]

apple bit was epic..lol...its so true!!they find this pc modding so...you know...i wonder if they mod macs too..lol

[sirchonga]

Very good review! I think you and your camera Mac man work well together.

[kwebber1234]

its USB 3.0. made a mistake.

[sasktank]

CAMERA MAN DRUNK ???---QUIT WITH THE ZOOMING ALREADY

[SICKNESSstunting]

you unbox it in a town?? outside? :D

[micropage7]

antec gives a nice case, full features but on this one they forgot how to put a nice front bezel

[SJB666]

DDR Drives look like they could become the future but there gonna have to get BIG! Thats where they fail. But to have a ddr drive as a part of a system to perhaps put a few games on which you are currently playing would be sweet as sugar dipped in honey. Oh yer your ear rings let the world know what side of the fence your playing in. Ewwww do you eat bum biscuits? Shockin.. your choice though.

[MrGENOCIDEGeorge]

@SJB666 What the fuck is wrong with you? Pierced ears don't mean ANYTHING.

[iAzNScrYdeR]

Future of flash drives= hot swappable ssd's Yay

[lilmarine93]

good camera man lol. He's funny, you gotta do an episode with him actually in it.

[Zaxkcy]

I love NCIX. They are the best. And with Price match....they have the best prices!!!!

[fcweddington]

You do great reviews. Nice work.

As for the Darkfleet, uggh :( The only difference I can really see when compared to the 1200 is the addition of annoying plastic optical drive covers and a useless SSD quick-swap.

[Tianeas]

i like ur earings! xD [not gay]

[bl4ckt1p]

such a good case only thing i dont like is how far the top cable management hole is from the PSU my 8pin wasnt quite long enough so i had to go over my gpu but other then that its an amazing case! ( ps fits the coolermaster V8 without a problem at all

[buckamoona]

sigh...why couldnt they have made a better top...top looks so ugly with the random ssd slot and fan grills right on the top

[xRevelations1]

i'll stick with my 1200

[Awayze]

I like your reviews alot. They're cool unlike 3dgameman who doesn't even allow comments on his new videos so people can't help each other. Much better on your channel.

Also Apple MacBooks are the best computers you can buy for the money. I got mine over a year ago n I love it. Time to build a PC

Also this case is FUGLY. Makes the Haf X look like Megan Fox O_O

[MrGENOCIDEGeorge]

@Awayze LOL MACBOOKS ARE NOT THE BEST COMPUTERS YOU CAN GET IN ANY INSTANCE.

[hackersarchangel]

I subscribed cause this was relaxed yet informed almost as if I just bought it myself and was giving it a once over before installation and I like that quite a bit. It shows you aren't a robot lol.

[simon1234simon]

this case would look so awsome in beige color, too bad they don't make it like that, i might paint it

[Slixys]

where can I find the camera man's channel?

[cookiepwnsU]

i thought he said:

this is my chi chi for today

[234jari234]

In Soviet Russia The Product Unboxes You!

[heroofspirits]

love the way you almost dont know what your doin, made me lol, this is why i subscribed

[xtremegameuser]

i like the case

[rabi0000]

good case this is

[rabi0000]

good case

[EphraimJWitchwood]

I like your style of commentary. Relaxed, unprofessional (in a good way), friendly. It's pretty refreshing. ^_^

[pascbjumper2]

Wow, I feel dumb. I've got a bandage on my finger right now from working with this case. You mentioned that they've given a bit of extra effort to smoothen edges and what-not to avoid getting a cut. Well, I managed to find the one and only place on the entire case which isn't. The back panel for the motherboards inputs are still a bit pointy, enough to get me a small cut at least. Beautiful case though, amazing to work with!

[sharif888uk]

i cant stop thinkin as to why he would review the case outside....with the annoyin background noise...

[bizzy400]

what camera are you recording with looks sooo nice maybe its better lighting

[pascbjumper2]

@bizzy400 I agree, the image is pretty sharp, excellent natural lighting as well.

[worlddomin623]

Damn, Linus be stylin.

[jjlyu0330]

good

[silentmachine101]

@ 9:58 you get sexual with the case. xD

[nictherocker]

Linus you havent done a antec 1200 unboxing?
