Inwin A1 (my 2nd build)

[Dttocs]

Only got interested in pc and gaming a couple months ago after buying a dell 5675 for video editing. 

It was advertised as a gaming pc so i got a few games to try and was hooked.

A few weeks ago i built a small inwin 301 case with a ryzen apu for streaming and light game play in the lounge.That now is getting the rx580 from the dell.

So i built a Inwin A1 

Asus rogs strixs b350 motherboard 

ryzen 1700x cpu (from the dell)

G.skill trident z 16gb ram 

Samsung M.2 evo 960 256mb ssd

1tb ssd/hdd  (cant think of brand)

Mastercooler ML240R AIO 

4 x Mastercooler 120mm rgb fans.

Msi GTX 1080 gaming X gpu

Finished about 3am getting it running and still needs a few programs 

Cant wait to leave work and play a few games.

That is one t i g h t case. How was it trying to get the motherboard in? It must have been a pain knowing you would need to get the fans into it as well after (or before, I'm not sure).

Exactly the same when I built my PC!

I've never built in a small case so I guess i was lucky getting the huge corsair 750d airflow.

It was a very tight with the motherboard.

I have big hands and installing plugs and running cable was fairly time consuming.  

The most time spent was because some reason coolermaster AIO rgb fan/pump has 3 pin headers but the fans they sell are 4 pin rgb headers. 

Its a great little case though and i can't wait to see how the 1080 does in games.

For some reason the moment I seen the tiny A1 case i just had to build it.

Sits perfectly on my desk instead of a mid tower underneath.
