Features of the Antec Plus 1080

There are three fans included in the package, which are already installed. Two are blowing air out of the case, and the third is installed on the side panel. In my opinion, the side blow hole is a good idea on paper, but in practice is counterproductive. Lian-Li had the right idea of installing it on the top of the case as we all know hot air rises. Since the door is extremely easy to open, having this fan installed complicates everything. You have to open the door a tad, then unplug the fan and finally remove the side panel in order to access your case. It just seems a bit awkward, but I suppose the extra cooling is still not a bad thing to have, even if it isn’t in the best of locations.
