The DEE

Today I present my main rig build that I have been working on for the past 2 months.

Most of the parts used have been accumulated over time. (YES I know I could have opted to upgrade to a 1080 and 7700K, but my current parts already suit me well and I wanted to upgrade the aesthetics of my rig)

The motive for this particular build is that I am starting to get bored with simply off the shelf upgrades and wanted to do something unique, personal and customised. Thus the trigger to revamp and rebuild my new rig.

For this special build, I knew the case had to be something out of the ordinary and within my likings. Now as a big In Win fan/supporter, I decided to delve into their signature series of chassis and the one which caught my eye the most was the D-Frame 2.0. At first this case was only produced in Black/Gold variant which didn't suit my colour scheme. However a few months in, the Blue/White and Black/Green variants where announced. Now as I am situated in Australia, I had to special order the Green variant directly via In Win, and this case took almost 4 months to arrive. From my knowledge, this is probably the only retail unit in Australia and has almost unlimited potential to how you build inside it.
