A Closer Look - Outside
The In Win 707 can be had in two different color combinations, black and white or black and red. We received the latter version for review, which is also the more appealing one in my humble, purely subjective opinion. Clean and straight edges and asymmetrical elements in the front dominate the In Win 707's deign. In Win also placed a thin plate of aluminum on the front panel to give it another textural note aside from its metal and plastic bits.
The entire front is quite clean as it does not include any air vents that disturb the overall design. While the entire cover is made of red plastic, the aluminum plate does add a nice level of sophistication. With the PSU bay on the bottom of the rear, the layout is also quite traditional.
The chassis features a large side window that is extruded slightly to give you more space within. Unlike the 703 with its fairly large logo on the window, the window on this chassis is completely clear. Turn the In Win 707 over and you will see a flat side panel with an opening around the motherboard tray, which would allow you to install a cooling fan there.
The 707 comes equipped with three 5.25" drive bays, hidden behind a plastic door that swings open to the right, which is perfect should you want to place the chassis to the right of you on a desk to comfortably peek through the window. The hinges holding the cover in place are made of plastic, so you really want to take care not to break them off.
Taking a closer look at the rear, the bottom is meant for the PSU. The bay comes with two sets of screws so as to install a unit with its fan facing either up- or downward. Above the PSU bay are the eight separate expansion-slot covers. The width of the chassis allowed In Win to include a 140 mm fan in the rear that pushes hot air out through the back.
The top can hold three 120 mm fans or a 360 mm liquid-cooling setup, right below the metal mesh cover. You will find the I/O in-between the top and front panel. It consists of two USB 2.0 and two USB 3.0 ports and the usual audio plugs. The power button has been put into the corner, which makes reaching it without having to take a look possible.
