Conclusion

At the time of this writing, this case can be found at Newegg.com for $155.99 USD, less $20 for the sale, and then a $30 mail-in rebate.

In Win has again taken their time with the details on this case.  They have shifted their focus with the new lines towards themes, giving them a unique place in the market.  This case follows a futuristic / robotic theme based on Mobile Suit Gundam.  The chasis is steel, but there is still a lot of plastic.  The combination has quite a bit of weight to it for a mid-tower, especially after installing components.  This case was set up for entry to mid-levels gamers, both in the style and cooling methods.  The VGA turbo cooling solution works quite well to add fresh air onto your expansion cards.  On stock settings, my temperatures were good under normal use, and still decent under heavy gaming.  If you intended to overclock, you would definitely want to take advantage of the water cooling grommets.  The toolless design is handy and feels secure, with the rubber wrapped slides absorbing a lot of vibration, and hence sound.  Overall this case would be purchased for its unique styling.

Pros:

  • Unique Theme
  • Solid Construction
  • Quality Airflow with Provided Fans
  • IO Panel has Everything but eSATA
  • Toolless Design

Cons:

  • Short 1 Expansion Cover
  • Poor Cable Management Options
  • No Window
  • Split USB Leads

8/10
