Introduction
The Three Chamber Design
The full tower S10 by Antec is the flagship case of the Signature Series by Antec, a new
family of chassis characterized by a patent pending internal architecture featuring an
innovative
Central Air Intake System and completely original Three Chamber Design . The
S10 consists of three chambers: the Motherboard Chamber , the Hard Disk Drive
Chamber , and the Power Supply Chamber . Separating the enclosure into three thermal
zones gives you the freedom to tackle heat and noise problems without compromising
performance. The airflow of each individual chamber can now be individually fine-tuned to
achieve your ideal configuration without the usual limitations that come with conventional
ATX enclosures.
The Motherboard Chamber is the main structure holding the motherboard, the graphics cards
and the CPU. The patent pending
Central Air Intake System divides the Motherboard and
PSU Chambers from the Hard Drive Chamber, supplying filtered, cool air directly to the CPU
and graphics cards which
generate the most heat in a computing system.
The unique Central Air Intake System also provides filtered, cool air to the Power Supply
Chamber while the Hard Disk Drive Chamber pulls filtered, cool air downward from the top of
the case. By isolating each thermal zone, you can effectively fine tune cooling elements to
meet your needs – maximizing performance and minimizing system noise.
The advanced cooling system of the S10 includes seven (7) strategically-placed fans (plus
one optional mount) and support for multiple radiators allowing you to create highly
customizable liquid cooling solutions. Ten (10) PCI-E slots mean the Antec S10 is Quad-SLI
ready, capable of supporting up to four (4) 12.5” PCI-E graphics cards.
The S10 comes without a power supply. Make sure you choose a power supply that is
compatible with your computer components. We recommend our High Current Pro Platinum
Series and the EDGE Series for the latest ATX specification compliance, broad compatibility,
and energy savings.
We continually refine and improve our products to ensure the highest quality. As such, your
new chassis may differ slightly from the description in this manual due to improvements
applied for the optimal building experience. As of April 1st, 2015, all features, descriptions,
and illustrations in this manual are correct.
Note: Even though the case is expertly designed to withstand normal daily usage, we do not
recommend that users sit on or place heavy items on it. It is highly recommended that you
keep your pets or children away from the chassis and any electronics.
