In Win Track Case Review

Inside the Track

Both side panels are attached to the chassis using black thumbscrews, so opening the Track doesn’t require tools. The motherboard tray has a huge hole around the area where the CPU is installed, so you can replace the backplate of the CPU cooler without the need to remove your motherboard. There are two holes for you to route cables behind the motherboard tray, plus the motherboard tray doesn’t go all the way to the front panel, so there is an open space behind the hard drive bays for you to route and hide cables.

The case comes with individual plastic mechanisms for holding expansion cards.

Even though the Track is a small case, it supports three video cards up to 12.6” (320 mm) in length each, thanks to its reduced number of disk drive bays.

In the Track you can install the power supply with its bottom fan facing up or facing down, so you will have to decide if you want the power supply to be pulling cool air from outside the case (fan facing down) or hot air from inside the case (fan facing up). The case comes with a removable air filter for the power supply fan. The Track supports power supplies up to 10.5” (270 mm) in length.
