In Win 805

Overview

In Win's 805 is another glass-clad mid-tower -- in fact, there is even more glass on the 805 than there is on the 904 Plus and yet it is said to be even more affordable. At a quick glance the 805 appears to be a better equipped case as well, offering slightly more storage options, as well as much better cooling out of the box, better connectivity thanks to Type-C USB and more room for CPU coolers.

The 805's tempered glass, smooth aluminum and honeycomb cutouts are a special sight, especially for $200 or less

You'll probably want to upgrade the 805's stock cooling

Overall, the 805 is perfect those who enjoy admiring their gear. If your system doesn't need a large volume of airflow then there really aren't any drawbacks to the 805, besides the fact that you'll have a part time job cleaning dust, fingerprints and possibly even drool off the glass panels.

The In Win 805 was already a really great case, I mean who does not like an all aluminum case with tempered glass side panels? Just when you thought this case couldn't get any better In Win went ahead and added the Infinity mirror and RGB LED strips....

The aluminum-and-glass 805 is an attractive, versatile chassis that can be a stunning showpiece for your PC parts if you're meticulous with cable routing. Caveats: no optical drive, and take care when handling the glass sides, especially if you have a...

All things considered, I quite liked working in the In Win 805. It was solidly built, had enough space to work with, and had a few features to make installing a custom waterloop pretty enjoyable. There are a few things that I would like to have seen,...

The installation process was reasonably straightforward with the In Win 805. I am using this for my new build, which I have previously used a Fractal Design Define R5. For the most part, it was moderately easy to work with as far as a standard mid-tower...

The In Win 805 is best described as a flawed Gem; while the design is striking and the engineering is impressive, the compromised design has resulted in a rather unusual cooling setup, one that will require the buyer to invest more money to get their...

The In-Win 805 is a chassis that will please many. it is light weight, has an aluminum body and obviously the see-trough design with the tempered glass side panels really kick things into 6th gear. Design wise I have very little to complain, the...

This conclusion can be neatly cleaved into two main parts, not necessarily two paragraphs, but two parts. How we feel about the exterior, and how we feel about the interior.Let's start with the exterior shall we. Now normally when describing the...

The loop was minimal – a 240 based radiator, a ddc pump and a cpu only loop. In testing we loaded the stock 5820K with prime and the temperature deltas quickly approached 20C. At this point we shut the test down because we were uncomfortable with the...

The In Win 805 is a midtower designed for those who wish to have a stylish case built from premium materials Despite initial concerns about the airflow we found, that thanks to the enormous vent area in the lower part of the case, this aspect is no...

The cooling results are average, which is not ideal for a case that costs around £120 - you can buy alternatives that offer fan speed control as well as much better cooling results out of the box for the same price or less. However, the 805 has forgone...

Although impressive in the end what IN WIN has done with the 805 is take the classic midi tower design, remove the front 5.25" optical drive bays, place a piece of tampered glass at the front and replace the classic aluminum/metal side panels with ones...

From the first moment we spotted these new IN WIN cases at the Computex 2015 show in Taipei we already knew these cases would stand out from the designs of the other represented vendors. The used tempered glass plates make this IN WIN 805 so gracious...

Pricing The In Win 805 isn't especially cheap, but when you consider the extravagant prices of some of the other In Win models, as well as factoring in that you're buying a chassis that features premium materials such as aluminium and a lot of...
