Review on InWin BL040 mATX Desktop Case with 300W TFX PSU in Black and IEEE 1394 - BL040.FF300TB3F by Zachary Jackson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Pros and cons of Nikki's InWin BL040 case:

Pros and cons of Nikki's InWin BL040 case: Pros: Compatible with mATX and iTX Both USB 3.0 and 2.0 ports on the front Relatively compact compared to other cases mATX Horizontal and vertical mounting Chassis does not slide in vertical stand Cons: Extremely unnecessary 3.5" floppy drive mount Unnecessary 5.25" DVD/CD mount PSU a bit weak for i7 with 4+4 - Graphics card CPU power cable a bit short; I need to route it diagonally across the motherboard. Conclusion: Putting mATX or iTX motherboards in a slim mini-tower with an included power supply for less than 100 is a good deal. Besides that; All black body, conveniently placed power button, good ventilation and 80mm fan make this case great and comfortable for home and work. I hope that the next version of this InWin BL040 case (probably BL040-V2) will remove the 3.5" floppy and 5.25" CD bays as most of us don't use these media anymore, and also added a small mount for 2 ssds and increased the power supply by 350 or 400 and that would be a great case.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Poor
