Review on πŸ’¦ Enhanced EK Classic InWin 303EK - Black ATX Case with Integrated Distribution Plate & DDC Pump for Optimal Water-Cooling, Tempered Glass Window, LED Backlit I/O Panel including USB-C by Steve Beaumont

Revainrating 4 out of 5

The quality is excellent. When it's set up it looks fantastic, but it's cramped.

This is the classic version of InWin 303EK, ie without the D-RGB distribution. The case is solid, I have no complaints about the design. I was able to fit two 360x38mm radiators but it was pretty tight. Just make sure you have everything connected to the motherboard beforehand if you plan to use the 360 wheel underneath as you won't be able to get to the PWM headers or front panel headers once installed. I agree with the other reviewer that it's made for offset swivel fittings, but you can't deny the looks when done right. The performance is good. While gaming, it keeps my 5900X between 65 and 70C, my 6900 XT stays at or below 55C and the coolant temp hovers around 39C. Is it expensive? Yes. But for the price, it's comparable to the O11 with a decent front-end distro. Is it worth? I think so, but your mileage may vary. Can I recommend it after building in it? Yes. Take your time and plan everything and it should be relatively easy.

Pros
  • NO RESERVOIR REQUIRED - InWin 101 EK eliminates the need for a dedicated reservoir to store coolant in the manifold plate for a minimalist finish.
Cons
  • The list will be long.
