So what did I think of the Mountain Jade? Aside from some minor problems, I found the case to be easy to build, with solid construction throughout. While certainly not very expandable, it should be a decent performer for a multimedia PC or HTPC. The lack of fans initially left me a little leery of performance, but testing set me straight.

If you spend a little time at any local LAN you will notice gamers like to trick out their PC case like gearheads trick out a car. In Win has designed a case to combine the two worlds, and we now have the F430. The design of the case takes styling queues from the Ferrari F430 sports car and when you power up the system instead of the standard beep you get the sound of a Ferrari starting up...

The In-Win Mt Jade/BK623 Tiny tower case is a mATX slim form factor chassis that is just half the size of many desktop mATX PCs. This case is designed to work with micro ATX-sized motherboard and full height audio and video cards. The chassis uses Partition Plate cooling technology, which separates the CPU fan from the heatsink to reduce back draft. With this design no case fan is needed which means better acoustic performance. Read on to see if this case is what you need!

SFF (Small Form Factor) enclosures are great for space management, particularly for HTPC (Home Theater PC) enthusiasts, but they always seem to trade limited space requirements for an equally limited amount of enthusiast fanfare. More often than not, they cramp our style with poorer cooling than our desktop counterparts, leaving them better suited for mainstream users than the average system tweaker. But does it have to be that way? Today HardwareLogic takes a look at In Win's Mt. Jade chassis, a SFF case co-developed by Intel. Can these two companies fuse together and create a miniature sized case with mammoth cooling potential, and will it ultimately end up another 'also ran?'

In Win's Mountain Jade microATX case is the Taiwanese manufacturer's improvement on its BK623 case. The Mountain Jade is well-suited for an HTPC, promising only 30 dB(A) outside the case when combined with a stock Core 2 Duo cooler. ThinkComputers investigates this case to see if its fashionably black exterior and partitioned interior are as awesome as In Win purports them to be.

The 5.25" drive bay also doubles as part of something best described as a processor isolation chamber. Air is drawn in through the vents in the top of the case, through the removable air filter mounted to the top of the drive bay by the processor's fan, and then it exhausted out of the vents found above the rear I/O panel. This cooling arrangement is another point that reminds me of a BTX setup, as the processor fan doubles as the case cooling fan.

The new Mt. Jade enclosure is new Intel validated 13L SFF chassis that ships with an Intel Validated SFX/TFX power supply; it should be noted that the chassis is co-designed by In Win and Intel Development. The goal of this design is to create a standard mATX solution with a better thermal and acoustic performance in a smaller sized chassis, yet still supports 4 full height PCI/AGP expansion slots. This is made possible by the use of the "Partition Plate Cooling Technology". To learn more about the Mt. Jade and some of its unique features check out our review.

The BT611 may not have alot of bells and whistles, but it does provide a very attractive, compact, and quiet home for your basic mATX system. In addition to these features, the whole thing comes ready to power a modern system thanks to the rather beefy 300W TFX power supply and its dual 12V rails.

The last time I took a look at a case from In Win it was the F430 and I was really impressed with it, especially because In Win is not that known of a brand. Well today we will be taking a look at one of their mATX cases the Alpha 360. We got a sneak peek of the Alpha 360 at CES so we were excited to test it out. If you are looking for a nice mATX case this one might be for you. Read on to check out the review.

The F430 is an excellent case, boasting a bright red finish, and stylish air ducts. The whole case feels very rigid with no creaks or rattles, and it is a very pleasant case to work with because of the drive bay railing as well as the folded edges. The installation is straight forward, and the manual is very clearly laid out. The cooling performance is excellent. The only thing that separates this case and the truly high end computer cases is the lack of a motherboard tray and more space for internal hard drives. All in all, the F430 can pertain to anyone who has a passion for racing, because every time they would push the "START ENGINE" button, they would feel a rush of excitement.

The In Win Alpha 360 mATX case has a lot going for it. Its unique styling features make it one of the best looking small cases on the market today. Innovative features throughout the chassis also make it one of the easiest mATX cases I've ever worked with. Liberal use of plastic allowed the In Win design team to do some very nice things with the 360 and one would have to say that the result is quite impressive, both in appearance and performance.

So you're dying to own a Ferrari F430 but that $168,000 price tag is putting just a bit of a hitch in your plans. Well In Win has the answer and it will only set you back about $95 (US). OK, this may be a huge and outrageous stretch, but the styling cues, Ferrari red paint job, and even the name of the new In Win F430 Xtreme Series ATX Gaming Case leave little doubt where the inspiration for this case came from.

When I hear F430 I instantly think of one of my favorite exotic cars, the Ferrari F430. So when In Win named a case the F430 you would assume it would take on some of the characteristics of the real F430 and it does. The In Win F430 has an amazing car-like paint job, Ferrari-like stylish features, and even something that makes you feel like you are inside of a real F430!

You've got to hand it to In Win. It takes a lot of guts to design and market a computer chassis with such close association to an automotive legend like the Ferarri F430. With their F430 case, though, In Win seems to have pulled it off rather well. The immaculate finish, innovative design elements, single-fan cooling, and racecar sounds all contribute to make the F430 a high-performance and stylish case with that little something extra that sets it apart from the crowd.

The styling of the In Win Alpha 360 mATX Case is definitely unique and is one of its best features. It looks like no other case I have used, and the aesthetics don't get in the way of an easy installation and convenient operation. It provides many well designed tool-less features, more drive space than many other mATX cases, and decent cooling despite just having one case fan. Overall it has made quite a positive impression on me.
