I don’t think anyone saw this one coming.
Internet purveyor of adult entertainment, YouPorn, has just penetrated the eSports scene with a hardcore Spanish team previously known as Play2Win. As part of the deal, the five man team will be re-branded as “Team YP”, and will begin unloading on the competition at the Gamergy Dota 2 tournament in Madrid later this week.

904 PLUS 002 402x500 In Win 904 Plus Chassis Quietly Rolls Out to the Market

At CES 2014, we had our very first look at the In Win 904 and 901 chassis. And since then, we’ve had a chance to field test both cases at events such as the BCIT LAN Events, and at GottaCon 2014 just this past year. In other parts of the world, the cases have also endured similar torture, being shuttled from event to event. After all this punishment, our cases look as good as they did the day we built them.
