The In Win Buc sells for a mid range price of $99.99 USD and can be had a little less than that if you shop around. At the time of this review most retailers that sell this case are offering a $10.00 mail in rebate making the price even more attractive. Overall, we found the In Win Buc to be a pleasure to work with and is feature packed. The drive mounting is almost tool less and extremely easy to use. The cable management opportunities are plentiful and will result in a clean and tidy build process. The four hot swappable drive bays are a feature usually reserved for cases that sell for a much higher price than what the Buc sells for. Couple that with the three included 120mm fans and you have a lot of value for your money packed into this In Win offering.
The lack of included instructions is a bit troublesome, but as stated previously, they can be had by downloading them at In Win’s web site. About the only other thing we found a bit odd was the use of a lockable HDD access door without a side panel lock option to completely secure the system.
If you are in the market for a mid tower case that is both affordable and feature packed, then the In Win Buc needs to be on your short list of options. The appearance of the case is quite appealing and the ease of which a system can be assembled inside of the Buc rates it right up there with higher end cases.
