Features & specifications

We all know there is a little dark inside us. Most people think of dragons as bloodthirsty flying hunters who burst hell of fire through their mouth, killing and destroying every form of life that dares come near. InWin gives you the opportunity to take control of this legendary rage and become the master of a most fearless epic creature a Dragon Rider.

It is commonly believed that dragons are huge, enormous creatures like dinosaurs. So, its fairly easy to understand why the Dragon Rider is marketed as a full-tower chassis. Massive air-flow and huge spaces to hide mythical treasures and install your hardware can be found inside. From the outside view, its mesmerizing black and as strong as dragons skin, made by steel.

I have to say InWin surpassed itself and goes beyond the realization of a simple case. In fact it looks like a dream box of shadow, enchanted by a dark druid or some kind of powerful ancient guru or shaman. If you look more carefully, you will see runes and markings. It's some form of Elfish, I cannot understand. There are few who actually can (like my old friend Gandalf the Grey).

You will find 8 expansion slots for PCI-E/PCI/AGP cards and some other magic ports inside. According to the legend, no one will ever know their names, but it is believed that these ports belong to the second and third generation disciples of the mighty USB Kings who have been ruling thy valley of silicon and bugs all these years. Tales of brave men who lived far away talk about wires with fire and  got an eSATA treatment of the villagers with InWin. The edifice of the wind has begun with the maximum support of up to six fans. They are masters of the Wind and commanders of airflow, a vital part alright.

And if your dragon gets thirsty, you are allowed to use water-cooling in the ready to use chassi to douse his fire off.
