Never said it was just Antec. They just happen to be the target of choice right nowMany companies make "claims" so I wouldn't just bust Antec for that.
Corsair "claims" to support their items, yet we're still stuck with waiting for the Windows 8.1 supported Link software for their H100i. Yeah, they'll eventually put it out, but when?
Anyway it's not just Antec that makes claims.. Now, if you want a list...uh...give me an hour or two.
Pity Antec discontinued this case. It would have been a perfect match with this cooler.
We all have a list, thus my post
Anyway for now, Corsair for their Link software,AntecSoundBlaster for their lack of Win 8.1 drivers.
Anyway we're (me) getting way off topic so moving right along
Yep pure industrial design and cool if that's the look you want. This looks to only be able to take a 120mm rad....if that.
@ADDRAM I doubt that cooler will fail it has the same % as everything else to fail
For me i am fine with taking a gamble on a new product ,i am also willing to accept the consequences along with it
The worst that can happen is thermal shut down which almost every known board today has even with a bad cooler applied the paste and hard plate will keep it cool enough for you to see it and shut down and start looking for a solution
I find Antec a well trusted name i have faith this is a decent product vs again H80I that was just horrible even after swapping it out for another
If you do go with that cooler keep us appraised, especially with regards to the fans.
BTW I used to love Antec's cases till they outlived their usefulness for what I need in a case, thus my move to Cooler Master's HAF X. However I absolutely love their power supplies, and have their signature series SG-850 which is a very good power supply. In fact I’ll be getting another Antec PS next month for another build; so yeah, Antec is a good name to trust.
That said, I'm still curious to see how that cooler stands up against both Cooler Master's Glacer 240L and Corsair’s H100i seeing that it’s around the same price range.

Brian, I've considered that cooler. The bad thing in my mind about it is you have to use those fans since they have pumps in them and have to be mounted as shown.
