PC cases you can fold yourself: InWin with even more DIY for PC building
InWin is known for its unusual cases. With the POC Mini-ITX Tower, the PC component manufacturer proves this once again.
PC cases that you can tighten, monster PC cases, those in spheres or others that go all floor lamp. InWin has everything that makes a PC case - or not - in its range.
This selection is joined by the POC Mini-ITX Tower, a case that takes PC building literally. You fold and assemble the POC from individual parts. These can be bent and moulded. Origami for people who like to assemble PCs. Instead of paper, you can use electrogalvanised steel sheets. The material is said to be particularly suitable for folding. This is what the whole thing looks like:
As the housing is packed in individual parts, it saves packaging material and is therefore smaller for transport. This is supposed to be better for the environment. The case is rather small anyway, as it comes in the Mini-ITX standard. Nevertheless, ATX power supplies and graphics cards up to 3.5 slots thick and 34.6 centimetres long should fit in the system.

Like many other mini-ITX cases, the POC utilises the two-chamber principle. The graphics card and mainboard are housed in separate compartments in the casing. This prevents the components from overheating each other. A PCIe 4.0 riser cable is included for connection. The triangular ventilation cut-outs can be removed for better airflow. According to InWin, fresh air is drawn in via the front and top and discharged via the side and bottom.
