The editors didn't like
Included 220mm fan does not fit when using a tall CPU HSF such as the ProLimaTech Megahalems
Requires a 4/8pin extension cable (why not include one?)
Having used a fair number of casings through out the years I must admit the INWIN Maelstrom certainly has made a mark in my mind. The build quality of the case is exceptionally good and since it's made of steel it is very sturdy. Only drawback however ...
Tons of room, Lots of ports on the front panel, Great cooling, Blue 230mm LED fan with toggle switch, Looks good,
Limited when it comes to cable management
In the end I found this case to be my favorite full tower case to date. This case proves to be good looking while providing superior cooling with room for even the biggest of rigs. Something I liked about this case was its bezel. While from most pictur...
Going back to the introduction, the Maelstrom does a good job delivering in each of the listed areas. It's convenient in it's tooless entry and acoustic reduction, plenty of cooling options for both fans and liquid, efficient in it's protectio...
Great Cooling, Distinctive look, Good value, Four Fans included (3120mm, 1220mm), Quiet, Painted interior, Nice I/O panel
Limited cable management, Limited toolfree features
In Win’s Maelstrom chassis has a lot to recommend it. The outstanding cooling performance is probably its greatest asset, and the fact that this cooling comes at such a low noise penalty is just icing on the cake. A roomy interior that will mount jus...
Abstract: Video Review: The In Win Maelstrom Case is one of the better affordable Full Tower Cases on the market, if you like the styling. There are lots of drive bays, please of fans, black interior, hole on the motherboard tray for the coolers retention plate and much more.
Excellent oversized design very eye catching look, Amazing cooling setup (there's an abundance of ventilation holes everywhere for great air circulation), Holds up to ten 120mm fans!, Toolless drive installation, Large amount of top access ports (I wa...
Building in some sort of small fan controller would be nice in a case that holds so many fans
The Maelstrom pulls off being an oversized case very well. It's got a wicked design - it isn't gaudy and is sure to turn heads. The cooling possibilities in this case are endless; not only can it accommodate up to ten 120mm fans but it can also co...
Overall, I really enjoyed working with the In-Win Maelstrom chassis. There were some moments when it was pure joy putting together the system, however at times I felt like In-Win could have done a little better. The first thing I have noticed that I w...
Plenty of room, Extreme cooling/airflow, Sound absorbing foam, Easy to install, Unique design
No toolfree design for expansion slots, Long motherboard power cable required
The In Win Maelstrom is certainly a different take on the recent amount of In Win cases that I've seen. It has a unique design built with a solid structure. The amount of airflow and cooling options of this case still amazes me. The sound proofing, an...

The Maelstrom case has many features and options found in premium and high-end cases, however for the price point, the materials are steel and plastic which is why you find this case in the $125 USD range. PCWizKid defines this case as a mainstream ga...
