Verdict
Cooler Master NR600
7 / 10 Expert Rating
A solid budget Micro-ATX case if front USB-C isn't a priority; step up to the Prime AP201 if it is.
Lian Li A3 mATX
8 / 10 Expert Rating
A genuinely well thought-out compact case, best suited to a mATX build that still wants room for a full-size GPU and cooler.
