Availability in the USA
Some may find installation tricky due to the small nature of this case.
Limited Space To Work In
Can Only Support Two SATA Devices
PSU Doesn’t Have Six Pin Connector For Some Video Cards
Only available in white
Not very AMD friendly
Not much room for using the expansion ports
Rear door doesn't always stay shut
May not accommodate all brand microATX boards
Side panel removal design
Some would say that the limited North American available at the time of this review is a con (coming soon though!)
Rear door feature needs improvement
Limited to Intel reference boards
Lots of plastic
No pricing information available
Availability
A 350w SFX PSU should have been included from the getgo. For most users the 300w just won’t cut it and having to turn around and spend another $50 on a hardtofind PSU format really doesn’t bode well in my mind
In no way is it a gaming case
Partition plate cooling can only be used with the stock Intel cooler
Can only be used with Intelbased systems with the stock cooler
Not sufficient cooling for a gaming case
Somewhat Chinese puzzle box feel when taking this chassis apart and putting it back together
Not large enough to accommodate normal sized PSUs if replacement is needed
Abstract: Video Review: If you're in the market for a mini-ATX case with a Mac theme, than the In Win Matrix Case might be the case for you. Watch the video to find out more...
I like the looks of the IN-WIN Matrix, most of the people I’ve shown it to have said the same thing. The removable dust filter has worked quite well during the time I’ve been using the Matrix, but you still have to remember to clean it of cour...

The In Win Matrix is a well designed case that maintains decent temperatures given its compact size. The overall appearance is subtle, but not boring and seems at home in any type of entertainment center. The white case with the black trim makes it sta...

I love it, and now is when I rant about it. Inside this little case there really isn’t much room to work with but I can live with that. Unlike big Full or even mid-tower cases there is next to no room once everything is installed inside the In-Win M...
In Win definitely went back to the drawing board when creating the new Matrix SFF enclosure. The Matrix packs a lot into such a little package with very little wasted space. Along with the revamping of the entire exterior, In Win included an internal H...
Not everyone has a fondness for small cases like do, but I find the In Win Matrix to be a viable choice for a desktop solution. Now with hard drives reaching enormous sizes the small computer case and its componets make a lot of sense. The thing tha...

Now, it should be noted that I am a big guy. At 6’3” you can imagine that my hands were definitely cramped when working inside the case. But again, it is a MicroATX and I tend to buy full-tower cases for a reason. In the end, I think the Matri...

So we really did not get to test the Matrix to its full extent, but we can still tell you a lot about it. Here is what we did like, its simplicity to start. The all white color and conservative design really makes this case perfect for any setup. It w...
The Matrix case by In-Win has the style and form perfect for an HTPC or “basic” home system. This case displays solid steel construction, and a nice weight, showing the quality of the construction. The only weak points are in the plastic doors...
