Just like in fashion, certain colors are more popular at times than others. At the moment, many users like the look as white build, some add RGB fans, others like it more understated. In order to offer a nice option for gamers and enthusiasts, Antec Inc. shows off the DP505 White. The case is now available on US Amazon.

The chassis features visual effects with a x-shaped front panel design ensures a massive air intake for ideal cooling performance of the components. Ventilation grids on the top, at bottom and at the PSU chamber of the case accelerate the airflow. Magnetic and pull-out dust filters at the top and the bottom allow for easy cleaning and maintenance. The 4 mm non-drilled tempered glass side panel lets the user show off the build, while the interior of the chassis allows plenty of space for watercooling and case fans.



The new DP505 White measures 481 x 220 x 490 mm (DxWxH) and is compatible with e-ATX, ATX, micro-ATX and ITX motherboards. In terms of fan support, the case accommodates three 120 mm / three 140 mm or two 185 mm in the front, three 120 mm fans / two 140 mm fans on top as well as one 120 mm fan in the rear and two fans on the PSU shroud. Three 120 mm ARGB fans in the front are already included in this neat gaming case.

For extra water-cooling, the DP505 White can accommodate a 360 mm radiator in the front and on top and a 120 mm radiator in the rear. The case boasts two convertible tool-less 3.5" HDD drive cages (convertible to 2x 2,5" SSDs), two 2.5" SSD mounting spaces as well as seven expansion slots. Moreover, the chassis has plenty of space for graphics cards with a length of up to 375 mm and effective ventilation, making it particularly suitable for gamers as well. The mid-tower supports high-end air coolers with a maximum CPU Cooler Height of 170 mm and power supplies with a length of 205 mm.

The I / O panel features Power and LED control button, two USB 3.0, one Type C 3.2 and Mic and HD Audio jacks. With 23 mm clearance in the rear and a grove on the top as well as eight included rubber grommets, the DP505 White offers sufficient options for cable management, allowing for a clean build and optimized airflow.

Definitely. It's really frustrating to see a case that looks well built and with decent functional design to be ruined by that awful "face". I guess it's made for a different target audience, but for me that is a big NOPE.

I don't mind the front panel. It's better than the plain flat square front panels. I love that they located the fan hub higher where most of the fans will be mounted. Also, it looks like a GPU anti-sag bracket is also included with this case. That will come in handy with all these massive GPUs that are being produced these days. White grommets instead of mismatched black-on-white. Very nice.

Put aside asethics for a moment and look at how the front panel [sorta] represents uniqueness that front panel screams Antec. anything representing Antec stops there. So huzzah for Silverstone White!
