Introduction
I would like to thank
DIYPC for supplying the review sample.
The brand DIYPC and our review sample, the Trio-GT-RGB (what a name!), may not be on your radar, but don't let that discourage you. On paper, the chassis offers everything that could be important to RGB and glass-panel loving mid-range gamers and enthusiasts. With a slew of options available from DIYPC, the Trio-GT-RGB stands out with cool, LED-exposed fans and a good sub-$100 price point or even lower if you happen to find it on sale somewhere.

Packaging
DIYPC ships the Trio-GT-RGB in a plain cardboard box with some blue patches. Interestingly enough, there is no image of the case on front of the box. Instead, it has been put on one of the sides, while the other holds the specifications. Another noteworthy element is the choice of font for the "be gamer" tag. Those of us who have been around for a while have seen this font used by various brands over the years.
Two foam spacers hold the chassis in place, while two foam plates protect the glass side panels. A thin plastic bag protects it from scratches and fingerprints.
