The editors didn't like

  • 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
  • Magnets do not hold so well
  • Some may be turned off by all the plastic
  • Cable routing may not work with some cables
  • Limited choice of CPU Cooler

  • Classic good looks, Very small volume and footprint, Good, quiet cooling, High quality 300W PSU included, Full complement of front I/O ports, Innovative cooling system, Removable, washable air filter, Good manual
  • Rear door feature needs improvement, Limited to Intel reference boards, Lots of plastic, No pricing information available, Availability
  • On the whole, I'm pretty impressed with In Win's Matrix tiny-tower chassis. It has a distinctive look and sports some very nice features for a case of this size. The pearl white/black color scheme is refreshing and the multiple doors maintain a unifo...

  • wire management.
  • Availability in the USA, Some may find installation tricky due to the small nature of this case.
  • In Win’s Matrix is definitely a case that minimizes the room needed to put a mATX system together. With the total volume of this case being less than 12.5 liters in volume, they maximize the use of every inch. With its simple yet effective design, a...

  • Not many manufacturers can design the entire exterior of a case using nothing more than plastic and manage to pull it off in an effective way. InWin left me impressed with the design of the Matrix, not only was it an incredibly stylish and eye catching...

  • S The Matrix chassis by In Win is sturdy, solid, and, as my daughters say, cute. This chassis would be a perfect candidate for those who want an HTPC in a chassis that is both functional and stylish. The back side of the chassis is the ugliest part abo...

  • The In Win Matrix case is small - very small. When I first got the package I was wondering about the size, as I did expect it to be larger. But even though it has such a small foot print, it can still hold a mATX board, an optical drive, two 3.5 inch d...
