Congratulations on your purchase of the Nine Hundred Two V3!
The best-selling Antec Nine Hundred offers gamers an unbeatable enclosure, one that delivers a
combination of cooling, performance and convenience and stands head and shoulders above the
competition. The Nine Hundred Two V3 builds on this design, adding a CPU cutout, internal bottommounted 2.5” SSD drive bay and front USB 3.0 port. We know your gaming hardware produces a lot of
heat, so we’ve built this case for maximum cooling, with a perforated front bezel, three 120 mm fans
with mounts for even more fans and a monster top-mounted 200 mm fan.
The Nine Hundred Two V3 comes without a power supply. Make sure you choose a power supply that is
compatible with your computer components and has a long enough power harness to reach your
motherboard and peripheral devices. We recommend our High Current Gamer or High Current Pro
power supplies for the latest ATX specification compliance, broad compatibility, and power-saving
capability.
At Antec, we continually refine and improve our products to ensure the highest quality. It’s possible
that your new case will differ slightly from the descriptions in this manual. This isn’t a problem; it’s
simply an improvement. As of the date of publication, all features, descriptions, and illustrations in this
manual are correct.
Disclaimer: This manual is not designed to cover CPU, RAM, or expansion card installation. Please
consult the motherboard manual for specific mounting instructions and troubleshooting. Before
proceeding, check the manual for your CPU cooler to find out if there are steps you must take before
installing the motherboard. While installing hardware, keep your case on a flat, stable surface.

Hardware Installation Guide
2.1 Setting Up
1. Place the case upright on a flat, stable surface so that the rear panel (power supply and expansion
slots) is facing you.
2. Remove the panel thumbscrews from the side panel and open it by sliding it towards you.
Note: Place the panel thumbscrews carefully aside as they are NOT interchangeable with the HDD
cage thumbscrews.
3. Remove the panel thumbscrews from the other side panel and open it by sliding it towards you.
Place the screws carefully aside. Inside the case is the power supply mount at the lower rear of the
case and the 5.25” drive bay area with two HDD cages inside the bays. You will also find some wiring
with marked connectors (USB, PWR etc.), an installed I/O panel and a toolbox containing more
hardware (screws, brass standoffs, etc.).
Note: Don’t use your fingernails to pry or lift the panels.
2.2 Power Supply Installation
1. With the case upright, place the power supply on
the four silicone pads on the bottom of the case.
Note: Power supplies will need to be mounted
so that the PSU fan is facing the top of the case.
Nine Hundred Two V3 provides mounting holes for
power supplies with standard mounting layouts
to be installed upside up or upside down.
2. Push the power supply to the back of the case and
align the mounting holes.
3. Attach the power supply to the case with the screws
provided.
2.3 Motherboard Installation
1. Lay the case down so that the open side is up.
2. Make sure you have the appropriate I/O panel
for the motherboard. If the panel provided is not
suitable for the motherboard, please contact
the motherboard manufacturer for the correct
I/O panel.
3. Line up the motherboard with the standoff
holes. Determine which holes line up and
remember where they are. Not all motherboards
will match with all of the provided screw holes,
and this is not necessary for proper
functionality. Some standoffs may be pre installed for your convenience.
