IN WIN BR665 Black SECC steel MicroATX Mini Tower Computer Case

Pros: Excellent case (especially when the price was lower). Excellent including cooling. Functional cable routing and wire management with just enough space to run cables behind the board. Dust filters on the front fan, sidepanel (with noise vibration gromets for 4x opt 120mm). Drive capacity for 3x 3.5 HDD, 1x 2.5 SSD, 1x 3.5 for fan controller, card reader, or SSD with 3.5 adaptor. Space for 14" video cards. 5x expansions slots that are perfect for Gigabyte's dual video card matx boards like the G1.Sniper M3, which has an extra space between your vid cards - however front 120mm cooled my 2x HD7970 perfectly regardless of spacing between the cards. Has HDD cooling and removable HDD cage. Toolless clips make removing 5.25 optical and HDD casee pretty easy. Plenty of included accessories. Has watercooling grommets to route outside case.

Cons: Not enough space between HDD cage and PSU. Need a short PSU under 6.5", and even still your PSU cables will clash with your HDD cables. Removal front panel use plastic clips which break easy. Toolless expansion card clips don't work with dual slot video cards, but at least they are removable so you use included to secure your cards. USB 3.0 cable can reach external I/O panel (gos out one the watercooling hols) to enable the front panel USB 3.0 jack, but no internal header adapter to do the same thing. Side panel fan grommets (the are 16) fall of very easily if you regularly transport your case, and without the grommets (no extras are included) cant mount a fan to the side panel. After loosing one I had bag up the rest and store them in my case.

Other Thoughts: Have bought one for my self and my sister, and bought 3 others for systems I have built and sold. Last year these could be found for sale at around 75 USD, then after Fall they just disappeared from for 3 months and came back for Christmas and disappeared again and are now back again but at the same higher price as the Dragon Slayer case which is the exact same case internally. I honestly love this but I would like if they are going to raise the price, that they at resolve some of the issues listed. Also, if I am going try to multiple for customers I would really like some price consistency and availability that isn't sporadic.

Pros: This is a nice looking case. It is all matte black with a few glossed details.

Cable management is very slick in this case. I spent a little more time than usual putting it together, as almost every cable can be run behind the board mounting plane. The only two cables that do not are the 24-pin MB power and the rear case fan. Otherwise, all excess cable is neatly hidden.

It is a very well designed case overall.

Cons: Despite the nice design, InWin decided to cheap out on material, in my opinion. The case frame is very thin. That's not to say it is a weak case. It is still structurally sound, but I am used to InWin's cheaper cases that are made out of much thicker material. If you are familiar with InWin's more basic cases, don't buy this expecting it to be as sturdy.

Also, the front grate over the 120mm fan is supposed to snap off easily. The tab for the latch is extremely thin, and it arrived broken. Even if it hadn't arrived broken, it is quite likely that the tab would break off under normal use. There doesn't appear to be any physical limitation as to why it had to be so thin in the first place. The latch would easily accommodate something twice as thick. A bit if twist-tie wizardry, and it is now solidly in place. I'll not be needing to use a filter anyway.

Is the USB motherboard header standardized? This case has a regular (external) USB plug for its USB3 front panel connection. I was forced to run the cable out the back of the case in order to plug it in to a 3.0 plug, even though there is a header on the MB for 3.0. Kind of ugly, and as a precaution, I'll unplugging it when transporting the case.

Other Thoughts: It might seem like I have a lot more negatives than positives about this case, but I do have to say the design really is quite good, hence the 4 eggs. Slightly better/thicker material would have landed this a solid 5 eggs.

Newegg rocks. The end.

Pros: Perfect size for my needs. Looks very nice. Great airflow, good cable management. No problems with mobo standoffs. Reasonably quiet considering all the fans - but since my systems so cool I may get a fan controller and reduce the speed.

Cons: Terrible manual. Online is a bit better but if they spent 10 more minutes on their instructions it would have made my build easier. The plastic tool-less drive cage and expansion card holders isn't great, but I didnt mind just using screws instead.

Other Thoughts: My build: MSI B75MA-E33, EVGA GTX 650 Ti, Core I3-3220, 120 Gb SSD, 1 TB hard drive, Seasonic M12 II 520W PSU.

Pros: * Large cut-out behind motherboard/CPU for easy CPU cooler swaps
* Plenty of fans
* Built in 2.5" SSD drive "hooks". (No need to purchase 2.5" adapter)
* Good construction, no sharp edges, all black on inside also, zinc coated steel
* PSU is mounted on bottom for better center of gravity (not top heavy)
* Big 140mm fan on top to evacuate rising heat
* Hidden cable comparment makes for a clean appearance and better internal airflow

Cons: PCI "Tool-less" clips are made of plastic and essentially don't work. They will not fully close on my graphics card, which prevents the right side panel from closing. I will attempt to remove the plastic retention system all together as mentioned in another previous review. Only 1 of the 5 metal PCI slot covers is readily removable. The other 4 have 2 small metal attachments that keep them in place with the rear of the case. I had to remove one by unlocking the plastic retainer and manually folding the metal cover back and forth until it gently broke off. Not a big deal but would have been nice to just have a detached metal cover. The case does come with a front USB 3.0, BUT, in order to use it you have to route the supplied blue 3.0 cable through a grommet out the back of the case just above the I/O panel and physically connect it to one of the rear motherboard USB 3.0. So now I have this great looking black case with a blue USB cable looped out back. A complete eyesore. Luckily my mobo has a USB 3.0 front header and I will eventually just swap out the cables, but it would have been nicer if the cable that came with the case was already setup as a front header attachement instead of the extension cable that is taking up one of my rear 3.0 jacks.

Other Thoughts: Overall I am very satisfied with the product and would purchase from In-Win again. I'm glad I didn't re-use my old HP case for my new build (no cable management/poor airflow). This case has just enough room to route almost every cable/wire behind the mobo panel for a clean, free flowing design. I use a modular PSU but I imagine a regular PSU would also work with more time and care into cable routing.

Pros: Construction quality is really good, it's fans are very silent and cool looking too, power led is pleasingly small and nice. Really easy to work with and is spacious enough for big size video cards and water cooling. Really helpful cable management and back plate opening for CPU cooler installs.

Cons: A bit difficult to remove hard drives on the go.

Other Thoughts: In my own opinion, this is the best case for micro ATX motherboads, just the space you need for the components you have.

Pros: Cheap, decent build, and good fan expendablity. Good clearance for even the longest cards, my gtx480 sits fine with a few inches of clearance. Included fans aren't great, but they do a decent job, and there are enough included to handle most jobs. Keeps my 480 at 83c under 100% load, which isn't bad compared to the 95+ some people report, especially in a mATX.

Cons: Like others have said the expansion slot clips are basically useless, and due to the size, cable management can be slightly difficult, but if you can route well or have a modular Psu it isn't too bad. Only three hard drive bays, but with the size of HDDs it shouldn't be a problem. Build quality isn't amazing, but at $60 it isn't any worse than the competition, and there are plenty of features to make up for it.

Other Thoughts: Good case for the price if you need something that's small with some features. If you don't mind going a little bit bigger and heavier the HAF912 is a good option, for about the same price, but you lose usb 3.0 on the front, and dust filters.

Pros: small, good for moving, space saver.

Cons: To small for all the power cords, everything is pretty much crammed in.
To small to add more equipment.
Invest on something bigger, for air flow and space for your parts you will be putting in.
Also its cheap plastic, the front panel broke just by snapping it back in, with little effort.

Other Thoughts: If I could I would buy something a little more expensive, its cheap but dosn't do the job.

Pros: - Lots of cooling available (up to 8 fans)
- 4 side panel fan mounts with rubber grommets
- Bottom mounted PSU with vent for psu fan
- Clean looking front bezel
- Room for long video cards
- Great cable management for a case its size
- Interior painted black
- No sharp edges
- CPU cooler backplate cutout
- Fan just for the hard drive cage
- Great mount for a 2.5" SSD right below the 3.5" drive bay.

This case is essentially the same case as the Dragon Slayer, but with a much more clean looking front bezel, and no obnoxious front logo LED that only really serves to blind you and impede airflow to the front fan. Otherwise everything else should be pretty much the same.

I was able to fit a Cooler Master Hyper N520 with Scythe slim 12mm thick fans installed in the side panel. Awesome cooling performance!

Cons: - Fans that come with it have molex plugs with the exception of the 90mm exhaust fan, which is three pin (?)
- Tight space between the psu and the hard drive cage, making hard drive cables a bit of a challenge
- Poorly thought out dust filters: While its nice that this case has them, they design them so that you have to remove the components they filter in order to get at them. If you want to clean the filter for the psu for example, you have to remove the whole psu to do it, and this would be a major pain considering how tight the space is between it and the hard drive cage. As such, I ended up not using any of the dust filters. The one for the top exhaust fan is literally glued to the fan, and I pulled it off.
- Tooless PCI slot holders: These clips will not securely hold PCI cards, and only serve to get in the way. It is easily removable however. Just pull on the top tap, push from the bottom of it with a screwdriver, and it will come right out. Use the included thumbscrews

Other Thoughts: ...instead. Something weird though, even though there are 5 PCI expansion slots, they only include 4 thumbscrews. Why?
- The included fans aren't that great and don't move a lot of air. I will probably replace them at some point.

Other thoughts:
Some people have seemed confused by the inclusion of only 2 motherboard standoffs. This is not a mistake by In Win. In this case, there are raised points on the motherboard tray that act as standoffs for every screw point on a mATX motherboard except for the bottom right one and the top right one. For the top right one, there is a pad for the motherboard to rest on, since it would be hard to get a screw in there with the 5.25" drive bay and 3.5" drive bay in the way. For the bottom right one, screw in one of the included standoffs, and you're good to go. No other standoffs are needed.

Overall, I like this case. It's probably one of the best mATX gaming cases on the market right now. I would recommend it despite a few cons.

Pros: * Pretty good for cable management
* Fans are quiet
* Lots of room, well thought out

Cons: * My power supply was a little difficult to get lined up with the screws on the rear of the case but not impossible
* The little tab releases for the drive bays on the front of the case seem like they would break off pretty easily, and they portrude out in front of the case a little bit

Other Thoughts: It only comes with two brass standoffs, but they are *not needed*. The case has little raised mountpoints for your motherboard, so you don't have to worry about shorting. In fact, if you try to use the standoffs your motherboard won't fit. I actually used the two standoffs (and others I had) as 'screws' to screw into the raised case mounts.

Pros: Really good looking will do the job small but efficient

Cons: I just got the shipment and starting to putting together looking for bag of motherboard stand offs they only sent two! How am I suppose to put motherboard on 2 screws! and rubber on side panel which holds the fan was missing too! Really disappointed.

Other Thoughts: This is really good case can do a lot of things in small factor! wish it had everything that suppose to be in box!
