THE SIGNATURE S10 EXTERIOR

The 17.7Kg heavy Signature S10 may not be the largest tower in the market today but measuring 602mm in height, 590mm in length and 230mm in width it's certainly among the largest ones currently.

Antec ships the S10 with a large piece of plastic at the top used to keep all 4 doors closed during transport (it doesn't do a great job at thet but it may come handy later on as well).

At the left side we see two anodized brushed aluminum doors (it may need extra cleaning but anodized brushed aluminum looks and feels great).

There are two clips/buttons on the left side as well but more about those later on.

You can see the mainboard chamber intake from here (you can also see why that cleaning cloth is needed).

Since the S10 has no 5.25" optical drive bays the front bezel is simple and looks very nice.

The I/O is located at the top of the front and includes the on/off/reset button, 4 USB 3.0 ports and the typical headphones and microphone 3.5" ports.

We were surprised to see a 5.25" optical drive bay cover at the top right over the I/O but as it turns out you can only mount a control panel or a fan controller there.

Since Antec is using 3 chambers for the hardware components there's a limited amount of space just over the mainboard so you can only mount up to a 280mm radiator here.

Moving at the rear of the S10 it's the 10 PCI expansion slots that steal the show.

Unfortunately Antec hasn't made it possible to replace the 120mm exhaust fan at the rear with a 140mm one.

Right beneath the PSU area we see a removable (and washable) air-filter.

The hinges for the two main (mainboard chamber) doors are removable (don't know if this can come in handy however).

As you can see both sides of the S10 are identical.
