Newegg has a new version available! http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811129066

It features 2 120 mm blue led fans in front, the 140mm is now also blue led , and one regular 120mm rear fan. For an extra $15 it's worth it for a cool blue led look and 2 more fans!

Hi Looks like you can install a fan on the side panel to cool

the video card area. Says it's 120mm. That will also help move

air near your Northbridge chipset and cool it a bit. Overall nice

case. Comes with 430W PSU and dust filters. You can add 2 - 120mm

fans to the front as well. Good price for all those features.

From what a reviewer said the only difference is blue led fans.

Those extra fans don't come with the regular version at all, the regular version only comes with two fans.

The Antec Three Hundred is a great case at around $50. It's a cramped POS for $70 however.

How does adding fans in fan grills that were already there just not included with fans make it bad?

You can provide some decent fans on your own for cheaper, and you won't have to put up with ugly LEDs or the low-quality that Antec's Tri-Cool fans suffer from. For $70 you could get the Cooler Master Centurion 590 or the Lian-Li LANCool PC-K7B, both of which I would say are much superior cases in comparison to the Three Hundred.

The antec tricool fans are $15 each on newegg but with this deal you are getting them for $7.50 each thats as cheap as it gets for high quality double ball bearing fans.

I'll take my fans over the stock antec LED ones. 2 x Cooler Master RC4 in the front and a Scythe on the door panel. I like my Vanilla 300 best.

The reason I liked the 300 more than the 900 was the LACK of flashy LEDs!
