In Win BUC Case Review

The Top, Bottom, and Rear Panels

In Figure 8, you see the top panel of the BUC. It comes with a 120 mm sleeve bearing fan (In Win FD1212-S3133E) at its rear part, which doesn’t glow when turned on but comes with a three-pin power connector, so you can install it on your motherboard and monitor its speed. There is a huge compartment with a USB 3.0 port occupying almost half of the top panel, and this compartment was designed to hold a device that you want connected to the USB 3.0, such as an external hard drive.

The bottom panel, seen in Figure 10, has an air filter for the power supply fan.

The rear panel and the interior of the In Win BUC are painted black. The power supply is installed on the bottom part of the case, and it comes with seven expansion slots, all protected with meshed slot covers. However, only the top cover is reusable; all the other ones must be broken and tossed away.

There are two holes with rubber covers for passing hoses of liquid cooling solutions. The rear fan is identical to the one used on the top panel. The blue cable is the USB 3.0 cable that must be installed on an available USB 3.0 port from the motherboard rear panel.

A tab for locking the left-side panel with a padlock or a warranty seal is available, but it comes inside the case and must be placed outside the case by the user.

Let’s now take a look inside the In Win BUC.
