This thread is dedicated to a n00bs (me) attempt to crawl up from the sticky cracks in the ground that is spelled Celeron @ 500.
 
Nice case btw 😀 😛 I've got one too, hehe

Its a great quiet case and you shouldn't need any more than the cooling it comes with. Make sure to use the fan only connector for the fans, quiet obvious? Well, those ones are regulated by temperature keeping it as quiet as possible.

Oh yeah, if you're moving from a loud case, get ready to start guessing if it's on or not without looking at the light on the front. For the first few days I had to look at the light to see if it was on or not. If you have any questions about the case, feel free to ask me, I've had it for 5 or 6 months now and love it 🙂 :beer:

It is? Give it to me. I still don't have a Celery in the collection. Just mobo, CPU and cooler will suffice, you can keep the rest. I'll cover shipping.
 
It's a very nice case. The HDs slide in sideways. Easy to access. Newegg's prices rock too. The same case at CompUSA is $129.
Reading NF7-S manual now.

Hey FrustratedUser,

The punch line is: I had a new Antec case to build a rig for a friend of my brother a few months ago and had the same issue for about ten seconds until I looked and realized there were thumb screws there. Antec didn't used to put those there.

I was speaking from experience!

😀
