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.

Phanteks P400A

7 / 10 Expert Rating

A dated but still capable budget mesh case; worth buying only if it's discounted below current-generation alternatives like the XT Pro.
