Conclusion

General   + -
In Win has done an excellent job in creating a mini-ITX case which is able to accommodate high-end components. Despite its rather small size, the 901 supports large graphics card. Aesthetically speaking, we like the massive use of high quality aluminum and side panels made from tempered glass. The interiors are well designed, with innovative solutions and high end finishes. The clean and elegant front denies however a proper dissipation of the components, in fact, the front fan is positioned horizontally and do not take care of all components.

Manufacturing quality / Ergonomics   + -
The build quality is on a very high level, the internal and external aluminum is very well made. Installation of the components inside the 901 is quite simple and straightforward, since the space available for work is plentiful. Despite the rather small size, there are nearly 20 mm of space behind the motherboard tray. Last but not the least, there is a huge cut-out behind the motherboard that will allow you to install backplate-equipped large heatsinks without having to remove the motherboard.

Design   + -
The In Win 901 is one of the most unique cases we have tested so far. The design of the case is really something special and innovative and, in our opinion, very well done. Like most cases made from screen panels, we believe that the In Win 901 is also not a product for everyone. The single block of aluminum combined with two heavy tempered glass windows give to the case an elegant design.

Recommendation   + -
Like all the high-end products, the In Win 901 also comes with a rather steep price tag. On Geizhals, the In Win 901 starts at 147 euro excluding shipping costs. If we focus on the build quality, design and the overall product quality, we believe that the price is adequate. If you are looking for a unique product with small size which can accommodate high-end components, the In Win 901 is definitely a great choice. However, due to the restricted cooling capabilites we do not recommend the 901 for hardcore gamers.
