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.
Zalman i3 Neo
6.5 / 10 Expert Rating
One of the best fans-included-per-dollar budget cases available, as long as you don't need front USB-C or big GPU clearance.
