909 is definitely a case for computer enthusiasts which can take quite a bit of time to do a decent cable management and show of the internal components properly and also offers quite a bit of customization possibilities thanks to its secondary chamber in the back. We can install cooling systems both in front, on the bottom, in the back but also in the last compartment and we must make sure that the airflow will be optimized correctly so all components will be kept in reasonable temperature ranges. Because of its minimalist design, we do not have any ports or buttons in the frontal area of the unit which is beautifully crafted thanks to a single piece of 4mm brushed aluminum shell; these have been migrated to the lower left side which tells us that the case was mainly designed to sit on our table and not hidden somewhere on the floor.

The all-new reversible USB 3.1 Type-C connector of the 909 makes the case even more future-proof and if we do not have two USB 3 headers available on the motherboard, In Win has supplied a conversion cable to USB 2.0 so we can use all ports anyway.

The magnetic fan is also a nice addition because it can be easily removed for cleaning and it is placed in a convenient position so we won’t need to remove the case from its position during this process.

During our build, we have also cumulated the so called “negative points” list of the product and here we could enumerate the fact that with this case we needed to use the supplied 24-pin ATX power connector extender (while on the Stryker with the same power supply it fit perfectly), both supplied 8-pin and 24-pin power extenders do not feature black-colored wires or at least black sleeve for keeping an optimal color scheme inside the case, SSD installation inside the 3.5’’ bays is not possible unless we remove the bolts with vibration dampening rubbers from one side and also it is very hard, if not impossible to utilize some of the I/O motherboard/expansion card connectors without removing the left or right side panels.

In Win 909 is not very accessible for the main crowd since it is priced at about 474 Euros without any included fan but it is a head turner nonetheless in any situation.
