If you have a mATX motherboard kicking around and want to put it to use, why not put it to use with style in the In Win Dragon Slayer? Don't have a mATX motherboard, you aren't alone; and I can assure you this chassis is not for you. This computer case reminds me of the feeling you get when getting into a compact car, and you are expecting it to be tiny. Suddenly, you get in it, and it feels roomier than a big truck -- go figure. The Dragon Slayer is a fairly small sized case, yet provides lots of playing room. In fact, it is large enough to handle two full sized VGA cards. On the other hand, the style of the case is up to debate; it neither impresses me nor disappoints me. Oddly, the case reminds more of a supply crate from a video game, and not as much as the acclaimed medieval chain armor. The side panel looks like someone had a fun time with a drill, but otherwise the front of the case has a very nice glow to the In Win logo -- if your computer isn't already bright enough. Oh wait, is this the introduction? Too bad. I am not going to give too much of my review away right now. As I have mentioned earlier, this is a mATX chassis, so if you are using an ATX board, the Dragon Slayer will not work for you. But if you are looking for a mATX case, then read on to find if this is the one to get!
PC Case designs have come a long way from the beige boxes from the previous century. Thanks to the modding and gaming scenes, manufacturers try to lure in new customers with sleek and innovative designs that not only allow your computer to perform its best, but inspire envy at LAN parties. Most PC cases are intended for either full-fledged ATX cases, or small form factor PCs, but not much attention has been paid for Mini-ATX motherboards.
Dragon Slayer is a mini-tower case that In Win will be releasing in the US by the end of July, and we had the privilege of getting a sample way before its release. Check it out.
To sum up, In Win's Dragon Slayer is a real gem. With the ever growing availability of very competent micro ATX motherboards, the Dragon Slayer is one of the only cases that I'm aware of that can do these high-end boards justice.

Right after the review of In Win Griffin, Today let us bring you another exciting chassis from In Win; Dragon Slayer. Unique internal drive allocation and advanced thermal cooling solution are two of the major unique selling points of In Win Dragon Slayer which makes it unique and outstanding than those ordinary chassis. Without further delay, let us deep dive this beast further.
Today Legit Reviews takes a look at the latest addition to the Destiny Extreme Series line from In Win, the Dragon Rider. Sporting a medieval theme, the Dragon Rider was designed to protect and cool even the most demanding hardware. This case is priced under $160 and has the ability to fit massive E-ATX motherboards. Read on to see if the Dragon Rider deserves a spot on your desk!
In Win and their products have featured here at eTeknix only the once, but even then we were quite keen to sing their praises. Sure there were some niggly little faults but we did have a pre-production version so we expect little gripes to pop up from time to time. When you look at the product range from In Win, you will most likely have no clear comparison in your head of what their cases rival as they are very different and step out of the box with their unique styling and features, yet still put up a fight to some of the big brands that are holding the market well.
IN WIN is a company of which I have seen many cases from its lineup, and up to now, really none of them have been a case that would find a permanent home on my desk. It isn't that the cases were lacking in any department. IN WIN tends to think out internal designs and feature sets that rival some of the top tiered chassis' that require quite a bit more money to attain said features. My real issue with most of the previous cases was based purely on aesthetics. With this chassis we are about to have a look at, a new leaf has been turned in IN WIN designing, and I hope it's a trend that continues.
In European folklore, dragons were always depicted as evil serpentine-like creatures that roamed the lands wreaking havoc towards towns, and selfishly guarding treasure. Of course, a few things have changed, in that modern day dragons became more like huge fire-breathing creatures with horned dinosaur-like features over the less-frightening Germanic mythological dragon whose meaning came from the word "worm". However, I say "Screw European folklore!" To me, it is all about the Chinese mythology of dragons that really hit home. In fact, I am quite impressed by my own rich culture as a CBC (Canadian born Chinese) and I can attest to the fact almost everybody here in the staff team at APH Networks is yelling out "Damn straight!" towards our proud discovery of creating dragons. The Chinese depiction of the dragon is on a whole other avenue, as dragons were divine mythological creatures that brought prosperity and good fortune. So with the usual introductory-tangent-babble said and done, let us make our acquaintance with today's review unit, the computer chassis from In Win called the Dragon Rider. What is a dragon rider? Well, besides being a person that rides dragons, I really have no idea. Nowhere in mythology, whatever the culture, ever had dragon riders (Don't quote me on that though). So in this sense, has In Win forged a dragon rider out of a plastic and steel box? I can tell you this case is bold and beefy and strong and... well, let's just read on.
Today I will be reviewing the In Win Dragon Rider, a full tower chassis with the same styling's as the Dragon Slayer case we reviewed recently. In Win is not the most well known brand, at least amongst UK enthusiasts, however with the ambitions and working ethic that In Win have set out, I am looking forward to reviewing their latest PC case.
