I'm pretty sure u can't, most modern cases don't make space for that anymore. U can just use an external drive for cds/dvds anyway, since... how many times do u use a cd a year? For me it's like 2 or 3 times.
and at merz, if he's already satisfied with his game performance, why not satisfy the vision outside of the screen too? To me it's just about the same thing
Wish it wasn't so expensive, because this is probably the most beautiful case I've seen. I do see why it has the hefty price tag though - most cases just use plastic "glass" sidepanels where the 909 uses real tempered glass, and two huge panels at that.
Just so people aren't confused by this video, the In Win website has a full page dedicated to this case, and despite what you say in the video, the only fan mounting location that is limited to 120mm is the middle one between the compartments, all other locations can fit 120mm or 140mm. -edit- if you pause the video at 5:48 when he pulls the fan bracket off you can clearly see that it has mounting holes for a 140mm fan.
hi mate i have the same case. I don't have any water cooling it's all airflow fans. I find that the case heats up a lot. i have the cpu radiator at the back. Should i move it to the front of the case??
So I am going with the in win 909 case and I will be all air cooled including a titan x and other high end components. Do you think temps will be an issue considering there is no front intake?
+commontheory The front intake is through the gap in the bottom. There is room up through the front to feed the two vertical mounted fans as well. While I haven't used this case personally I really doubt you will have cooling issues.
I just gotta ask, kinda new to the hardware stuff but very curious, what the hell do you do with 6-10 SSDs? that seems like overkill to me, then again I don't quite understand this part of a computer just yet. (I got the rest of the hardware sorta understood). I get that your first/main SSD would have the OS on it and just replace HDD (at least that's what i'd assume youd do nowadays), but the rest?
+murlocinvasion RAID, Internal NAS and other reasons like bulk storage for you tubers (who keep everything on SSD's because mechanical drives get noisy)
Air Cooling: Supports Front - 120/140mm Fan x 2, Middle - 120mm Fan x 1, Rear - 120mm Fan x 3 or 140mm Fan x 2. Bottom - 120/140mm Fan x 2 - Water Cooling: Supports Front - 280mm Radiator (Height up to 35mm), Middle - 120mm Radiator (Height up to 35mm), Rear - 360mm Radiator (Height up to 60mm), Bottom - 240mm Radiator (Height up to 35mm)
Weird choice to only fit 4 3.5" built in casings there and then an oddly sized gap instead of fitting 6 and it looking more respectable. Writing this in 2019, was going to get the new 905, but after reviewing it I'd rather get this 909 as they're basically same price and although much older this is way bigger and bigger internal size and design makes it more versatile.
+alphavortex1 Yeah i have the same issue. Not to watch dvds but to burn cds. I made a comment above regarding this. Your on the right track, you need an external slim drive. I considered in the crevice underneath the usb inputs.
+falconeranatolia I've had the 909 for a while now, never missed the DVD drive yet :) If I ever need one, I just plug it in the Sata cable I have already inside. it's becoming more rare that I need the drive - I can see it's on the way out now.
Why the f*** does in win, among others, demonise optical drives? Surely they could have fitted a slim one up top or the front. 904 has it but its a small tight case & shit for fanning. However I do have a solution which doesnt entail any modifications to the unit. A slim external drive can be easily fixed (with blu tack etc) onto the base crevice underneath the usb ports. It may slightly hamper the effectiveness of the ventilation of the fans above, which the space is designated for. And the image of the unit; with the optical drives usb cable, permanently occupying one of the usb ports above it, but its worth it. www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=31430&cPath=789&gclid=CIrUvu6a3ssCFUaWvQodv_UAkQ&gclsrc=aw.ds#googlebase www.ebay.com.au/itm/Pawtec-SuperSlim-External-USB-3-0-Aluminium-6X-BDXL-3D-Blu-Ray-Writer-Burner-F-/182036019906?hash=item2a62313ac2:g:H-EAAOSwPc9Wz8Hu
+falconeranatolia meh, I made sure to put an optical drive in my 540 Air, back in early 2015, I have used it maybe 5 times. It's nice to have but not really needed.
+falconeranatolia correct. I have burnt a few files for a friend and I admit the optical drives usefulness for this but normally I store all my music and videos on hard drives, usbs or my phone. As for games, I have bought a few hard copies of games since I have had this pc, but I am certian moving into the future digital copys will become more and more available and as I don't play older games I never actually play from disk.
it just affects the aesthetic of the case too much as it's a drive that has to move outward, so it totally makes sense to remove it from a designing standpoint. Besides, external optical drives can serve the purpose just fine if you really need it.
I watched this video like 10 times XD I'm getting this case for my birthday. I can't wait..
Because he wants that beautiful case?
Don't worry you'll get older one day.

Looking to get my first gaming PC. This piece of beauty looks stunning, as it does daunting.

Ditto on the quality of information in this video. Subscribed.
Great review!
Beautiful.
hi mate i have the same case. I don't have any water cooling it's all airflow fans. I find that the case heats up a lot. i have the cpu radiator at the back. Should i move it to the front of the case??
Is a very nice looking case, will the Rampage V Extreme X99 fits in this case?
+Alexie Chinea Yes it will :)
+Alexie Chinea It's an E-ATX case brother, could fit anything in here.
Does it have optic drives spaces? I'd like to install a fan controller, but I'm not sure if that's possible.
watch hardware canuck's video on it. The fan controller can fit on section above the PSU section.
So I am going with the in win 909 case and I will be all air cooled including a titan x and other high end components. Do you think temps will be an issue considering there is no front intake?
+commontheory The front intake is through the gap in the bottom. There is room up through the front to feed the two vertical mounted fans as well. While I haven't used this case personally I really doubt you will have cooling issues.
nice vid, would you be able to have a look at the in win 805 mid tower?
wrap267 Yes! I should have that one very soon. Can't wait to check that one out either
Stuart Tonks Also are you going to review pc-08?
wrap267 Maybe

murlocinvasion I guess they just give you options. Maybe not to use them all at once. But different locations on the case.

GGF Events How did you get your hands on this case already???
Robert Whiteside We have a few joint builds with In Win coming up. Also uploading the 805 quick look video now
Air Cooling: Supports Front - 120/140mm Fan x 2, Middle - 120mm Fan x 1, Rear - 120mm Fan x 3 or 140mm Fan x 2. Bottom - 120/140mm Fan x 2

Not sure why they put glass on the back where all the cables will be.
Carl Erickson I assume it's to keep with the theme
Damn this thing is amazing, too bad it cost $449 shit way too expensive.
akapdcdaka Price you pay for quality
It's just a piece of metal and glass.
Nice vid. You sir have earned a subscriber
Mike Frost Thank you
Where the hell do you connect the HDMI and other stuff with that thing on the back?
You have to take the side glass panel off and plug it in through the holes...
How does the PSU stay in place? Just the 3 screws on the back?
yeah it's no different to most as it is sitting on a flat base. Secure enough
USB slots on the bottom, and the power button?
Weird choice to only fit 4 3.5" built in casings there and then an oddly sized gap instead of fitting 6 and it looking more respectable.

Hey, do you know roughly the price of this amazing case?
Markus Erdmann Hey mate. I'm not sure yet. But I think it will be under $400AUD. Hope this helps.
Would an optical drive fit under that open space at the front (under the side USBs)?
+Pier Galeone There are slots above the PSU for it. as well as fan controls.
+Pier Galeone The open spot under the power button is for the fans to get a good airflow
optical drive? are they like floppies now - i have a so many dvds - how to play a dvd? use external??
+alphavortex1 Yeah i have the same issue. Not to watch dvds but to burn cds. I made a comment above regarding this. Your on the right track, you need an external slim drive. I considered in the crevice underneath the usb inputs.
+falconeranatolia I've had the 909 for a while now, never missed the DVD drive yet :) If I ever need one, I just plug it in the Sata cable I have already inside. it's becoming more rare that I need the drive - I can see it's on the way out now.
thank you
Anyword on a release date?
How fragile is that glass?
where to buy ? in us
look at that rear
dvd where????
release date?
***** Very soon
Beautiful case but i'm not spending that kind of money
Nice review! Just a tip, drink some water before you record!
Very informational! But...the incredibly loud and consistent sound of you swallowing your spit, drives me insane! lol

+Leigh Devlin You obviously dont play games from disk, nor burn cd music from converted mp4 files from youtube.

too ex :(
its alright not ideal for cooling
