Verdict

Cooler Master Qube 500 Flatpack

7.5 / 10 Expert Rating

A fun, genuinely modular case if you want to change its look over time, though the base kit alone is a fairly plain mid-tower.

Corsair 3000D Airflow

7.5 / 10 Expert Rating

A smart downgrade path from the 4000D Airflow when budget or desk space is tight, without losing the mesh-front airflow design.
