Verdict

ASUS TUF Gaming GT502

8 / 10 Expert Rating

A strong enthusiast ATX case on its own merits, and an easy pick if you're building an all-TUF Gaming system.

Silverstone FARA R1

6.5 / 10 Expert Rating

A fine budget option if the price is the deciding factor, just don't expect premium build quality at this tier.
