IN WIN 101 TUF Midi-Tower, tempered glass - black [101 TUF]

The presentation of built-in hardware succeeds in such a housing particularly well, because the noble chassis is "IN WIN" typical very high quality and allows a fancy arrangement of the hardware. The RGB LED lighting of the power button and the TUF Gaming Alliance Covers on the power supply cover has also failed. The control is made to match the case via ASUS Aura Sync.

The IN WIN 101 TUF uses the modern look of the popular IN WIN 101 Midi-Tower as a basis to become a battlestation with ASUS TUF Gaming Alliance Design. It was mainly made of high-quality, 1.2 mm thick steel and impresses above all by its huge side window made of tinted tempered glass. As innovative as IN WIN, the sturdy side window can be opened completely without tools. Clear advantage! The front of the 101 TUF is speckled in military style as is the top. This is broken by the yellow ASUS TUF Gaming Alliance logo and the stylish RGB LED illuminated IN WIN logo, which also acts as a power button. Meanwhile, the remaining I / O ports (2x USB 3.0 / HD audio) are located on the top of the case, where they are particularly easy to access.

Of course, the black interior also has some surprises in store. For example, the power adapter is installed at the top of the case and is located behind a flashy cover that can be fitted with an additional ASUS TUF Gaming Alliance Cover illuminated LED backlight. As a result, the motherboard is mounted underneath and allows a trouble-free presentation of the installed hardware. In general, the interior space for ATX, Micro ATX, and mini-ITX motherboards, CPU cooler to 160 mm height, graphics cards up to a maximum of 421 mm or 305 mm in length with side mounted radiator and power supplies up to 200 mm in length.
Cooling options and hard disk spaces
The cooling concept in the IN WIN 101 TUF is anything but standard. The theory is that "cool" air is sucked from the lower, dust filter protected side and blown out at the top or back. There are a maximum of three 120 mm fans or a 360 mm radiator on the floor. The back can accommodate a 120mm fan or a 120mm radiator. The peculiarity of the cooling concept lies in the possibility of installing two 120 mm fans on the side of the mainboard, so that warm air on the right side is omitted through the honeycomb structure of the housing. Alternatively, of course, a 240 mm radiator can also be mounted here. The vertical orientation of the upper cooling components looks really fantastic due to the large side window. In order to allow the user complete freedom in the choice of its housing cooling, no fans are included.

Of course IN WIN has also provided enough hard disk slots. On the front of the motherboard tray are two 3.5-inch and 2.5-inch hot-swap bays, which are complemented by two 2.5-inch mounts on the back of the tray. A handy support for graphics cards is also part of the scope of delivery, because high-speed pixel accelerators can nowadays bring a lot of weight on the scales.
