My Antec 300 build

[OsmLps]

Although this is over a year old now, this video just goes to show anyone can build a nice computer without breaking the bank. Love the Antec 300 btw. I've built quite a few rigs, and the Antec 300 was used in the majority of 'em. They're fun to mod, but work perfectly fine if you don't.

[twonickelsandadime]

I now have a nostalgia boner from the 90's music. Thanks bro - Smash Mouth was kick ass.

[sexking83]

750w is not needed 650w is good.. but oh well

[cotyslick]

LOL apple mac keyboard on a gaming pc how is it? i think i like the way the keys are on those

[TJMandJMR]

[TJMandJMR]

@TJMandJMR new video in the making :)

[bloc22]

@TJMandJMR I woul'dve thumbed up too, but my thumbs up button doesn't work for me for some reason :(

[Pollack007]

@TJMandJMR where is the new on?

[TJMandJMR]

@Pollack007 A certain JMR hasn't been online for ages. Can't really organise videos etc.

[TJMandJMR]

@Pollack007 Okay I have a new camera now so I can make a new video ASAP. Sorry.

[Pollack007]

@TJMandJMR cool:D

[megagabobe1]

like the way u made the video with the song man ;)

[DaYoda191]

This almost the exact same build i got except for minor differances

[cockyt4523]

@NarutBandit clueless illiterate cunt 

[iRushATI]

Nice vid man, I got a the same case with , Intel core i5 760 4gb ram and xfx ati radeon 6850 - What type of logitech speakers you got there?

[alien193]

what do you think about this case atm? i am planning to buy this one that's why im asking

[g0d53nd]

@NarutBandit you are a clueless dumbass

[jricketts1]

@NarutBandit True although i also have an Intel machine and i am also getting an nvidia card for this PC, gtx460 i think.

[nfarnham2008]

Woah, almost like my build. I'm using an ATI 5770 sapphire 1 gig, an AMD phenom 2 x4 940, goign to oc it and the video card, with 4 gigs of ddr3 ram on an M4N88TD-EVO ASUS motherboard. I plan to be using the Antec 300 illusion, how has it been for u?

[AeroFix94]

i got eyeorgasm untill i saw the APPLE MAC UGLY FUCKING KEYBOARD!! :((( wtf dude xD! :D

[jricketts1]

@AeroFix94 tbh, now I look its does look a bit ugly because of its colour although its very nice to type on :), i'll properly get a razor one at some point.

[AeroFix94]

have you already upgrade it???? if so why??? you dont need to upgrade for LOOOONG time! :D

[filipstunt]

Whats song name? :D

Nice vid.. Soon Antec 300 with me.. :D

[dtrano]

very cool vid

[Jellytotz27]

love it,,

[cinema2k]

Nice Rig.



[Rowsol84]

Pretty sure 750w is overkill for a 5770

[SeikoPsycho]

Did you have to cover up the hole on the side panel to prevent dust from entering the case?

[davyguedens]

Already upgraded you pc?

[TJMandJMR]

@davyguedens yea a little bit, i will make another video (a better one with video in it aswell) soon as i get the new case :)

[TJMandJMR]

okay if any one wants to see the new updated rig thumb up this comment.

[davyguedens]

Yeah show us. I think i'm gonna update my system too! I also have the same antec 300 case.

[TJMandJMR]

@davyguedens cool what specs does it have atm

[davyguedens]

@TJMandJMR phenom II 965 and msi 260 GTX, ocz drr2 4GB (2X2), antec 550W

[melvinhartwinkle]

Flip that ps so the fan is on the bottom and cable management will be much better.

[singre88]

NIce rig m8, tbe only thing I don't like is AMD phenom >/ INTEL 4 LIFE!

[TJMandJMR]

@singre88 yea I agree but I'm stuck with this motherboard for a while, all i can do is get the new 6 cores. I also have an intel machine, its a e8400, 4bg's ram...

[ducucs]

@TJMandJMR Amd is nice too :) dont be intel boy come on xD

I'll buy in 3 or 4 months a pc 90% like you, when i saw this video i was like WTF?! xD Gj for review this, really helped me! :)

[AeroFix94]

@singre88 intel sux!

[NOXXism]

@singre88 If it wasnt for that phenom you would have to sell your leg to buy a crappy 2ghz p4

[snipski0894]

Nice pc and video, will have something similar in august

[RKSS17]

you should put a phenom ii x6 1090t in ur pc. plus it uses 15watts lees than ur x4 :)

[jordan0089]

sick build man mines kinda similer (except 500watt antec psu) and DDR3.

what made you decide to go with DDR2 instead of 3?

[PacManJulie]

Some very out of focus pictures... Should have checked them 4b publishing. Not too much about the case itself? seems quite neat

[TJMandJMR]

ok my rig has changed a bit now. I now have another 500gb western digital HHD,Kingston HyperX 4GB (1066MHz), better cable management, I turned the CPU fan so it pushes air in to the back 120mm fan, I might add another 92mm fan to that to make it push / pull. I am also soon buying Coolermaster CM-690 II Advanced case, and have just ordered a Video mate TV card.

[stephenTcartwright]

@TJMandJMR You know there aint much difference between this case and the 690??? Is it the cable management that is doing your nut in? or is it the HD bays? For the price, this is the best case I have ever bought. Would only upgrade for a CM ATCS 840. save the money you would spend on the case and buy a 5850, sell your 5770 and then buy another one. 5850 CF.... Droooooooool!

[Oniongamer]

@stephenTcartwright

Depends where you live. Lol I bought this case for $45 and I do prefer it over the 690 (i stopped depending on Coolermaster after they cheaped out of alluminum cases 2 years ago. So i just went with the cheapest med quality case). Cable management isn't a big deal either if you hide it behind the HD/5'25 rack and those cables do not block any airflow. It may be ugly but its not like he has a side window to show ppl =P

[stephenTcartwright]

@Oniongamer I just went ahead and drilled some holes :) the only one i haven't got is a hole for my 4x2 pin at the top because the MB tray meets the top bracket right where i would have put the hole. But its no biggy. Still luuuuurve this case and I am considering buying another 1 for my secondary rigs.

[Trafficker85]

nice pc, shit music!

[dfsftw]

That 750w is absolute overkill. You could of got away with a 400w Corsair.

[TJMandJMR]

@dfsftw ok number one i didn't just want to get away with it, and secondly 400w is nowhere near enough. Before this one i had a ocz 600w which broke, so i got this to replace it. I have also changed my rig since this video, and i will be making loads more changes such as two new nvidia 400 cards, 8gb's of 1066 ram, more HDD's.

[OoEllusionistoO]

dude, why 750w? thats a rediculas amount of power for your system...

[ILikeKiks]

What's the song name? My system is: Gigabyte GA-MA790XT-UD4P AMD Phenom II X4 955 OC'ed to 3.7GHz Arctic Cooling Freezer XTREME Rev.2 Corsair XMS3 DHX 2x2GB @1.6GHz ASUS EAH HD5850 1.5TB WD Caviar Green 500GB WD Caviar Blue 74GB WD Raptor 36GB WD Raptor 2xSamsung Syncmaster 226BW

[grandtheftauto4123]

i have two ati 5850 in my antec 300

amd 2 x3 720 2.8ghz OC to 3.4ghz

640gb western digital caviar black

1000watt PSU

[TJMandJMR]

Nice although, would take that side 120mm fan off and put it at the bottom front fan grill. Put it as a pull config so it draws air in then the top 120mm and the back 120mm fan pushes the hot air out.

[DeYellowPikachu]

Just got the config for my pc on Newegg...Total is about 600...Performance is around yours but the GPU is the Radeon 5670 since my budget is probably below yours

~DYP

[TJMandJMR]

cool, you should make a video once you have built it.

[guerrillaman69]

Nice build.

[TJMandJMR]

thanks

[TheRenegade217]

dont really know what case to get the antec 300 or the antec 600 i am going to make a PC thats why plz help

[DeYellowPikachu]

around 500 or 600 but i want it to be "good" for at least a few years

[TJMandJMR]

im english and i think you are American so that about £250 to £300 for me. Well mine cost quite a bit more than that but dont get me wrong you can still buy a good pc with that, what are you wanting to use the computer for?

[DeYellowPikachu]

pretty decent gaming and massive multi-tasking

[TJMandJMR]

so a graphics card like mine, quad core and some nice ram. I think you could just make it with your buget but if i was you then save up a little more money, oh and im going to bed so i wont reply for a while :)

[DeYellowPikachu]

How much did the entire rig cost?

[TJMandJMR]

Enough for a 14 year old boy :)

[DeYellowPikachu]

A number plz? ;)

[TJMandJMR]

the whole rig with the pc, monitor, keyboard, mouse, speakers and desk. or just the computer?

[DeYellowPikachu]

just the pc

[TJMandJMR]

tbh I kind of lost track, this computer was the result of upgrading an older computer. It just ended up in building a new pc, I have two desktops now, the other one i will be selling or putting hackintosh on it. I still havent actually finished upgrading this one yet I am going to be buying 4gb's of 1066MHz RAM soon. Go to 'overclockers' the website and add up all the stuff. why do you want to know any way?

[DeYellowPikachu]

i was planning to build my own rig but I wanted to know how much the average rig cost.

[TJMandJMR]

dont worry about how much the average rig cost just look at your budget and build from that, thats the good thing about building your own it can cost as much as you want. Do you have an idea on how much you want to spend on your rig?

[pCfReAke]

Nice build.

[addzkebabs]

dont you reckon the psu is a little overkill, awesome build anyway!

[TJMandJMR]

no its not overkill, im will be getting the new nvidia cards when they come out. I had a OCZ 600w PSU before but it broke so i got this to replace it.

[jricketts1]

zak you bitch you rated 1 star and its the best case ever.

[HiTechVids]

I wouldnt quite say the best case ever (I have it lol :D) but it certainly isn't 'shit'. Nice build by the way. 5*

[TJMandJMR]

thanks, na its not the best case ever but for the price it's very good.
