Antec GX500 Mid Tower Case Review

To test the thermal performance of the Antec GX500 we loaded our test system for 15 minutes using Prime95 and Furmark and recorded the maximum temperatures reached using CPUID Hardware Monitor. We then restarted the system and left it for 15 minutes before recording idle temperatures.

Room temperature was maintained at 20 degrees C for the duration of our tests.

These temperatures are impressive for a budget case in this class.

PlayStation head of 3rd party claims “There are no dire times for the industry ahead”

The past few years in particular have felt pretty bleak for the video games industry, with the rise and fall of countless live-service games creating volatility, while the influx of gen-AI has led to continuous price hikes across the board. Despite all this, the head of 3rd parties at PlayStation ‘Christian Svensson’ has claimed that “there are no dire times for the industry ahead as far as I'm concerned.”

  1. Hi there, and thanks for the review, I found it really informative.

    Even though this is a so-called budget case, would I be able to switch the top 2x120mm fans with a 240mm rad from, say, the Antec H20 Kuhler 1250?

    Look forward to hearing from you soon, and sorry for the inconvenience!

    Cheers,
