In-Win B2 Stealth Bomber ATX Case Review

Cases & PSU/Cases by jmke @ 2008-06-26

The In-Win B2 is without a doubt a gamer orientated ATX chassis. Designed with aspects and features to resemble a B2 stealth bomber plane this military looking case is apt to turn some heads. It has a fully functional automatic hatch at the front and comes with four case fans to keep your hardware inside running cool.

Installation detailed

Installation

For the motherboard and power supply installation you will need a screwdriver, for all the other hardware you can take advantage of the tool-less featured offer by the B2 case.

Installation of HDD and Optical drives is made easy by use of a rail system; these spare rails are snapped into place on the drive. The rails are stored in their own 5.25” bay:

To be able to install devices in the external bays you need to remove the front panel, which is only held in place by a few plastic clips at each side.

Without the front panel you can see that the top 5.25” bay has been left open by default for your DVD drive of choice.

The HDD bay is more easily accessible and can be swiveled out slightly for easy access:

Despite our initial hope when we saw the depth stats of this case, it turns out that the B2 is a few millimeters short of able to fit a Geforce 8800 GTX and similar high end video cards.

if you squeeze a bit and don't mind your VGA card barely touching the HDD bay, you can get a 8800/9800GTX inside

this side did it: http://www.cpu3d.com/index.php?optio...mid=52&limit=1

with the plastic tool-less clips I could not get the 8800 GTX installed comfortably though
