IN-WIN obviously has plans to market this case through retail channels since it is pretty far from their usual drab packaging scheme. The front panel displays a picture of the case superimposed over the image of a pilot seated in a fighter cockpit. The “Extreme Series” designation suggests that this case is targeted towards an upscale market which is definately a shift in thinking for the usual-frugal IN-WIN.

The back and side panels offer good images of the inside of the case (including the “Turbo Cooling System”), as well as breakdowns of the various features and specifications of the case.

Overall, everything we need to see is on the packaging and the B2 certainly appears like it’s worth a second look, but the colour scheme seems muted. It doesn’t catch the eye quite as well as we’re used to seeing on retail packaging.


Opening the crate we find the B2 is well protected against shipping damage. It would be nice to find something other than Styrofoam packing but we can’t argue with its ability to keep our precious purchases safe from dents and dings during shipping.


Pulling the case out of the crate we can also see that it is well protected against the elements with a plastic cover so there should be no worries about salt deposits during the long trip overseas. This also protects your purchase against any unwanted scratches as well so it should arrive into your waiting arms without any damage.


Also included in the package is a pictorial assembly manual, a small bag of hardware (it is actually VERY small since this case features tool-less installation) and a single 3 pin fan/molex adapter. As yet another indication of build quality, pre formed card bay covers are included as well. It’s great to know we won’t be cutting ourselves removing the normally thin stamped ones from the back of the case.
